New blog post: When an Air Meets a Beast: The Wild World of Mac eGPUs
Mac gaming has come a long way, but high-end performance still demands serious hardware. We're diving into the fascinating, slightly mad world of external GPUs and PCI passthrough for Macs, inspired by the likes of an M4 MacBook Air paired with an RTX 5090.

RTX 5090 + M4 MacBook Air: Can it Game? https://scottjg.com/posts/2026-05-05-egpu-mac-gaming/
MOREFINE G2 is an RTX 5060Ti graphics dock with 16GB GDDR7 and… questionable value at $1099
A little over a year ago Chinese mini PC maker MOREFINE introduced a compact graphics dock called the MOREFINE G1 that allowed you to connect an NVIDIA RTX 40-Series GPU to a laptop, handheld, or mini PC with an OCuLink or Thunderbolt 3 or 4 cable.
Now the company is back with a new model, cleverly called the MOREFINE G2. Available for pre-order for $1099, it’s basically the same size and […]

GPD’s G2 GPU Dock supports PCIe 5.0 x8 via a MCIO 8i connector
Handheld gaming PC maker GPD has two new devices on the way, and neither are handhelds. One is a mini PC and the other is a GPU dock. What they have in common is that they’re some of the first consumer-focused devices with an MCIO 8i connector with support for PCIe 5.0 x8 connections using an external cable.
With support for data transfer speeds up to 256 Gbps, that means the new GPD BOX mini […]

I would, indeed, fancy an 8i #OCuLink interface!
Imagine 8 lanes of PCIe Gen4, instead of only 4.
In MY use case, that'd have to be some kind of mini PC, in which i can re-use my existing 64GB of DDR5 (2x32). 😅 ...i'm only considering paying for an upgrade, when i can drive my #Radeon 9060XT/16G #eGPU with 8 lanes.
No haste, though! My box runs all i need (faster than a 5800X3D, it seems), with adequate "Schwuptizität" (snappyness), as we call that here in Germany. 😉
Framework Laptop 16 OCuLink Dev Kit supports external PCIe 4.0 x8 GPUs and other accessories
The Framework Laptop 16 is a modular laptop with an Expansion Bay designed to let you add a discrete GPU to the notebook.. or swap out one GPU for another. But later this year Framework plans to give users another way to use that Expansion Bay.
An upcoming Framework OCuLink Dev Kit makes it possible to connect an external GPU or other accessories.
External graphics docks are nothing new – PC […]

¡Noticia para usuarios de Mac con eGPU Thunderbolt o USB4!
Apple aprobó nuestro controlador oficial para AMD y NVIDIA.
Ahora es tan fácil de instalar que hasta un Qwen puede hacerlo… ¡y luego ejecutar ese Qwen en tu Mac! 🔥
Com que Apple ja no ven la seva torre, ara deixa fer servir GPUs externes als seus Macs.
