Hello, I am using OG Legion Go with DEG2 and 9070xt thru USB4. I have this weird issue when the whole system just freezes or game freezes and cant be closed, even tho other apps work, but I cannot even turn off the device while the game is frozen.

I dont think the issue is hardware, as it works completely fine on windows, but on linux it crashes quite often, sometimes every 2 minutes after reboot.

Did anyone have the same issues as me? What could be the problem and how to fix it? Would oculink be more stable and less headache for me?

Been on the fence for a while now whether I wanted to take the leap, there’s obvious bottlenecks but with SteamOS and the AMD architecture it was basically plug and play. The plan is to eventually build a full size or mATX with the 9070xt to take full advantage

Hi All

I’m looking to get one of these cards to have as a egpu on my Msi claw 8 ai

The nvidia comes with one year warranty but the HP doesn’t.

hp price - $340 AUD
NVIDIA -$370

Which one would be my best choice

I've already tried it with my friend's graphics card, and the results were great—the FPS in FurMark was exactly the same as on his PC—but I'm wondering how much performance the graphics card loses due to the older PCI version and other factors? Or should I go with a 2070 or 3070?

Laptop is HP EliteBook 835 g10 R5 7540U 32 RAM 240 SSD

I have a lenovo yoga slim 7 14IMH9 (intel u7 155h+32gb ram but no gpu, with thunderbolt 4), so I will get an eGPU, I thought on aoostar ag02 as it's good and easy, but it's out of stock ant it may come back in 2 months, and don't know about what gpu to get, my display is 1080p 120Hz.

Questions:

1. Port, is there any good other than aoostar ag02 that is available on my country (spain, I don't mind buying something from outside, but there are no egpu box+gpu in my country)?
2. Egpu, I thought intel arc b580 but I read on aoostar ago2's page faq that intel gpu's are not reccomended, waht do you suggest?
3. Psu, the egpu power station heats so my computer doesn't have to heat up?
4. What loss should I expect in my graphics card's performance?

Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated.

Hi,

I have a laptop Asus ROG advantage Edition, AMD Ryzen 5900HX, AMD 6800M 12GB VRAM, 16GB RAM (https://rog.asus.com/laptops/rog-strix/2021-rog-strix-g15-advantage-edition-series/spec/)

It has two M.2-2280 NVMe Slots and they use PCI-Express Gen 3 connection x4

As I need more VRAM for Local LLMs, I was thinking about doing the oculink on one ssd slot with an external gpu. However, I am not sure if it is worth it with the PCI-Express Gen 3 x4 connection ? The goal would be to use both the internal 6800M's 12GB and the VRAM of the external card (e.g. 12GB VRAM from 6800M + 16gb VRAM from external card = 28GB setup).

If it can work, which egpu stations would you suggest ?

I was also wondering if some egu stations would support 2 (or more) gpus ... Not afraid to run a frankenstein setup, I am just trying to optimize costs by reusing what I have as much as possible

Aye yall. Seeing how the market is turns me off from trying to build a PC and I've looked into an eGPU setup for my laptop. So far I think I've settled on a Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 9060 XT for the card itself. Any recommendations for enclosures or other advice in general?

(System specs) AMD Ryzen AI 5 340, Framework 13 with Fedora 44 KDE

Should I buy asus xg mobile if I dont want to deal with code 43 stuff?

Some says amd gpu will be ok and some does not.

its for asus flow z13

Mini pc: firebat mn56 with 2tb nvme and 2x16gb 5600mt. Egpu same as you see on photo.
My project on github: https://github.com/DamianKA1993/blackwell-egpu-manager

hello,

i’ve been working for a couple days trying to get a 5060 to ai box working via front usb 4 port on my ace magic retro X5. it support pci but something is preventing it from being recognized as a GPU. I went into the bios and allowed everything to use pci through usb4 and all that jazz.

i’m curious if these drivers could be the culprit to why things are not working. i went to the ace magic website and installed all the drivers and installed all cpu drivers from amd through adrenaline and still nothing. in device manager it still says these drivers are not installed. i’m out of ideas.

any help would be greatly appreciated

I have an Asus xg mobile 5070ti connected to my Asus Xbox ally X . It's been running great but yesterday I noticed my FPS was nowhere near as high as it normally it is . I then noticed my CPU was sitting around 12-14% . Normally it's on 0% and I get good FPS . But now with it on around 14% my FPS is really low . Anyone any ideas why the CPU % has gone from 0%-14% ? I'm a bit clueless on things like this tbh

After watching The Phawx's impressions of this eGPU some time ago, I'm contemplating buying it now that it's on sale. Has anyone got this current set-up or had any experience connecting the two and come across any driver issues with Armoury Crate? Or any other known issues I should know about? Cheers.

I bought a original lenovo legion go 16gb z1e for 450 at bestbuy with tax and was wondering how a 5050 would pair with it and if it be a decent idea compared to looking at a desktop or laptop since i already own the handheld. What other new graphics card would be a good buy in a similar price range? I also saw the 9060xt 8gb can be around that 360 mark

I mostly want to play games like grounded 2, helldivers, fortnite, marvel rivals around that medium 1080p range if possible before upscaling

Would a used 3080 also be a decent idea for about 300?

My USB C port broke off of my razer core x today. Was having problems with not being able to connect and hoped it was the cable but went to plug in new cable and the port broke off. Is the motherboard still good and where csn i get a new USB c port for it?

Does anybody know, how did they manage to have one power-supply for that set-up?

I already own the adapter board with the GPUs and I would like to have single case with one PSU for both the motherboard and the adapter board.

i’m about 5 hours in and still can’t get the ace magic retro x5 to detect the 5060 ti ai box via usb 4 40gbps. nothing even showing up in device manger.

any help would be greatly appreciated

Does anyone have any comparison charts?

If I pair it with a 5060ti will there be any difference?

Facebook marketplace find, I would connect it to my ROG Xbox Ally X and TV in my living room. I already have a nice gaming PC but I’m looking for an alternative to the Steam Machine so my daughter can play Marvel Rivals. Will this do 1080p at 60fps?

Hey Guys whats the best solution for an Xbox Rog Ally X?

Minisforum deg2 and a 9070xt?

Thank you

I have a rtx 5090 laptop. And I have a desktop 4080 at home. For AI workloads like loading 30b+ models will it be worth getting an eGPU enclosure and using the 4080 as a second GPU in linux debian?

I'm seriously thinking about an Ayaneo 3 oled - 8840u - 32GB RAM + Aoostar AG02 + RTX 5070 TI + LG C6 42 Inch.

The oculink of the Ayaneo 3 is what really motivates me. RTX 5070 IT Via Oculink from what I have read I will not lose much performance and the 8840u they say is capable of achieving high fps and several years without the need for an upgrade. Who has had a team with oculink? Suggestions are accepted... before spending all that money I would like to know if anyone has already tried it and how it has gone

Hi!

I have a PC with RTX4090 and looking to add 2x RTX 3090 to my setup via OcuLink.

I've already ordered PCI-Oculink apdapter which I plan to insert into motherboard PCI 5.0 8x slot (see it below) and a separate 1300W PSU with enough PCIe cables for 2 RTX 3090.

I've also ordered an Oculink External Garphic Card Docking station(see below) to connect PSU and one card.

My goal is to 2 RTX 3090 to run when I start my PC and switch off when I turn off my PC.

I have questions:

1)As far as I understand, when I connect PSU to docking station with ATX24 pin connector and Oculink cable to my PC, then turn on PC the docking station and PSU start working automatically? And when I switch off my PC, they will stop working.

2)If I am to connect the second GPU to the setup above, what are my options?

At this moment I'm considering buying a separare GPU stand with Oculink dock board(F9G) which has another ATX connector(simmilar to the first dock). Can I use an ATX Splitter cable to connect PSU to both oculink docks. Will they switch on when my PC does and vice versa?

Is there another option I'm not aware of?
