  So every time you move say from home to school you’d have to bring an external device? What’s the point of that?

    Yeah mean like how you’re bringing the laptop?

      By your logic then why aren’t you just suggesting that pack and bring a desktop PC everywhere?

      So someone needs the extra gpu power from a dGPU in a handy form factor like laptop and you suggest an external gpu for… what benefit? I don’t get it.

        If you think moving around a laptop + gpu dock is more cumbersome than moving a desktop around then good on you

  Unless it’s one of those that has an oculink connection, you wouldn’t have enough bandwidth on the USB 4 port to be able to game on it at full speed

    Personally, I would never game on a laptop? It’s an expensive way to get cruddy performance.

      I’ve paid $14 for 7 hours at a net cafe, would have saved money if I had a gaming laptop when I was away from home.
