    I was actually planning on getting an Ally X, stripping my PC for the GPU (3070ti) and the power supply and making my own eGPU. That was before I knew this unit existed. That's a way cleaner setup and has swayed me to just take the GPU and run with it. Great video man. ✌

    Looks like a pretty clean setup, great option for a big performance boost for the ally x or legion Go. Having an egpu has been my best add on toy handhelds.
    Usb 4 should be plug and play after initial setup, oculink is definitely more particular. You have to power everything down, then plug in oculink cords, then power on egpu, then finally power on device. When you shut down the handheld, you have to unplug the egpu once the handheld is off. If you dont the egpu will overheat on its own (its a pain).

    For anyone that wants to go this route only get a 0.5m thunderbolt 4 cable anything over will cause stuttering issues especially on the legion (they loose bandwidth the longer the cable so 0.5m or even smaller).
    Some legions have a defect causing it to bluescreen even just on an external display. Also the legion has less ram so that can cause issues with stuttering and blue screening in certain games like avatar (because its a 50/50 chance it wont un-allocate the ram thats set aside for the igpu - even if you change it in bios) so best to go with the ally x.

  • @leoheiz

    Hello there.
    If the display output isn’t connected directly to the eGPU but instead goes back to the system, the rendered frame must travel back over the same connection (Thunderbolt/PCIe) to the main computer’s video output, which then sends it to the monitor.
    This back-and-forth creates an extra loop that can increase latency. Running the display directly from the eGPU instead avoids that return trip and usually reduces lag, as the frames can be sent straight to the monitor.
    So, it’s not exactly processing the data twice, but the additional round-trip increases the time it takes for the frame to reach the screen, which feels like added latency.

    Giving you a heads up. If you wanna get a slight bump in performance move your display port cable from the dock to the EGPU. Since the GPU has to back feed data into the handheld it looses some of the 40gbs goodness.

    Hey man, great video. If you connect display port directly from the graphics card to your monitor you should unlock some extra performance! Looks like on your video you rely on the usb hub for the video output so you’re taking up some bandwidth there.😊

      @ yeah, definitely try it out and see if you get an improvement. Make sure you’re not using the Ally/LeGo screen and just your monitor as well.
      With your setup you’re sending a huge amount of data through the usb cable over to the graphics card and then having to return data from the card through the usb cable to your device and usb hub which will bottleneck it more.

    Surprised to see you use the display running to a dock( bottom usb) instead of the egpu. I did something similar when testing the onexgpu I got for my legion go. I ran egpu to game on the handheld display and in both scenarios it should cut down on bandwidth cause the signal goes back and forth. In your testing it should have ran with display going to the ports on the graphics card. In my testing onexgpu might give a usb c cable that doesn't handle the signal going back and forth. It got really hot and thermal throttled after a bit of handheld gaming. External monitor gaming from the egpu ports and I had no issues. They also give a stupid heavy power brick that's fixed to the plug off the outlet. During my first use thinking it could share a wall outlet and it fell out on its own. Mid game I didnt blue screen though but game crashed and I restarted the pc to recognize it again.

    Thx for the video mate. I’m on the same jurney. How to improve the performance of the Ally X while docked. This solution is one way for me aswell. The other is the SGWZONE dock. It is more portable than this one and has a 4060 inside. I think it’s a laptop variant but several parts of the dock is modular. Like the GPU, the GaN power supply and the TB4/usb4 modul. The TB5 modul is under development. So I’m not surr wich one to choose.

I believe for those you can power your device directly through the unit and you don’t need to plug in your handheld separately. I would look into those for a slightly better setup/user experience. Either way it is a cool thing to be able to unplug and take your handheld on the go.
