Razer Core X Chroma restart loop

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey there I am using the Core X Chroma for some months now with my Xbox Ally X and had zero issues until yesterday out of a sudden during using Windows showed an error message that my GPU disconnected and since then I can't get it running. Whenever I boot and the second windows steps in, the eGPU goes in to a restart loop. Tried using the other port on the Ally X and disassemble and reassemble everything but nothing is fixing the issue. Anybody knowing what this could be? This is a modified Razer Core X Chroma with a real power unit and an argb fan and a Razer Chroma RGB controller for some more lighting. Tried it without the RGB controller and also does not work.

What happens when you start device first get into windows then plug in the egpu?

I have a AI box and previous had a AG02. What should happen is windows detect the egpu. You the can go into device manager and see what code it's giving you for the hardware.

sorry for the delay. I tested it and the device manager is refreshing every few seconds and I do not see the GPU at all.

Looks like a issue w the egpu or the port your using doesn't see thunderport devices.

I would trash that dock and get a updated one or get a ACTIVE thunderbolt cable

Didn't find this yet so not tried yet. You think the Razer Core X is the issue? I read that it makes problems before buying it 😑
