A small and portable eGPU solution
That is a major advantage over most existing external enclosures. With solutions like Gigabyte's Gaming Box, the idea is that you buy an ultrabook and play games at home, while still having the portability of a thin and light laptop when work takes you on the road. But with the Breakaway Puck, you can take the added graphics performance with you. In some cases, you can even leave your power brick at home.
"When GPU acceleration is needed on the road, users can conveniently pack an eGFX Breakaway Puck along with a notebook in a backpack or computer bag. The Puck connects to a computer with a single Thunderbolt 3 cable and, for added convenience, also provides 45W of Power Delivery to power and charge the computer, enabling many users to leave their computer’s power brick behind," Sonnet explains.
The Breakaway Puck measures 6 inches wide by 5.1 inches deep, and is just 2 inches tall. It has a Thunderbolt 3 port, three DisplayPort connectors, and a single HDMI port, with support for up to four 4K displays in multimonitor mode.
There are two versions. One is equipped with a Radeon RX 560 GPU (GPU-RX560-TB3) and costs $449, and other has a Radeon RX 570 GPU (GPU-RX570-TB3), priced at $599. An optional VESA mounting bracket runs $59.
Both models are available now.

ReplyDeletei wanted to know 2 things.
1 the best gaming laptop as of now under 80k which have 4 gb gddr5 1050 graphics
2. how good is the dell 5577 laptop for gaming and for how long. i am talking about the i5 and 1050 graphics model
Hello,
Delete1. Under the 80K range the Lenovo Legion LN Y520-15IKBN is the best one you can get with an i5 7300HQ, GTX 1050 Ti and a full HD IPS display. This is a great combination for gaming and with the added 128GB SSD you'll get the added advantage of fast boot and game loading time.
2. The Dell 5577 is good but loses to the Lenovo Legion LN Y520-15IKBN as the former is lighter, has better audio solution, more aggressive styling and above all a more powerful graphics card with just a 3K increase in price.
Still if you opt for Dell 5577 then it with its specifications it shall last you for around 1 year easily & 2 years tops with more tweaks required in graphics settings over time since the GTX 1050 is not a very powerful graphics card and the i5 7300HQ is a dual core CPU and games are getting more demanding over time.
