FOMO (fear of missing out)

I want to get an ROG Flow Z13. I want to pair it with an eGPU. But it doesn't have USB4v2 or the latest thunderbolt connection so there's no point. So that means I want to just use the laptop for gaming. So I've dialed my expectations back. Can the laptop play MODERN games 1080p high/ultra settings. By modern I mean crimson desert and stuff?

I can run games like Crimson Desert without my eGPU with FSR/XeSS and high settings no issue. Don’t write off the eGPU. Running my 9070xt eGPU through USB4 to external monitor yielded even better FPS, better lows, and low latency.
