I would love to buy our engineers gaming laptops instead of mobile workstations (smaller, more powerful, and cheaper than their mobile workstation counterparts), but I can’t so long as they look like alien spaceships. An external GPU (eGPU) enclosure lets you hook up a desktop-class graphics card to your notebook. The Verge challenges gaming hardware manufacturers to take a leap of faith and create gaming hardware with clean, modern designs – I too hope this happens. Yes, you are right, only one from the listed enclosures (Aorus GTX 1070/GTX1080), includes GIGABYTE Geforce GTX 1070 MINI ITX Graphics card GV-N1070IXOC-8GD. The sad answer? This look still, even now, sells.

#GUS II EXTERNAL GPU ENCLOSURE PORTABLE#
I bought the Node to make portable laptop VR Performance Desktop. Laptop users may no longer need a powerful dedicated graphics card to play demanding video gamesat least, not once MSI releases its GUS II external GPU enclosure.

Works better than internal 1060, but there is a 20 - 30 performance drop from desktop. Attach external monitor, disable internal laptop display. MSI will soon start shipping (H2 2012) a new external GPU enclosure dubbed GUS II that appears to be the successor to the original GUS launched a few years ago. Some games use internal GPU, some use eGPU.

#GUS II EXTERNAL GPU ENCLOSURE PC#
The Verge asked this same question of some PC gaming equipment manufacturers: GPU-Z shows load in internal GPU for most applications/games. ASUS Thunderbolt 3 USB 3.0 External Graphics Card Dock Model ROG XG STATION 2. I’ve been wondering the same thing about why PC gaming equipment looks so ridiculous. MSI actually has a clean, simple logo, but instead they use a ridiculous looking Ferrari logo with a dragon on it on their gaming hardware – no thanks. Another brand that has some relatively clean designs is MSI – The GS63VR stands out in this regard. If their logo didn’t look so ridiculous, I might actually be willing to bring one of their computers in to a meeting where I want my coworkers to take me seriously. I believe the Rolls Royce brand your hoping for already exists – Razer.
