FAQ:
1. What kind of laptop can I use?
You can use a laptop with ports for Thunerbolt3/Thunderbolt4/USB4. If you can't confirm whether your PC can be used or not, please contact customer service before placing an order.

2. What kind of graphics card can I use?
As long as the driver can be found on the official websites for NVIDIA and AMD, it can be used.
Graphics cards for NVIDIA series from 4090 to GTX450 can be used. The same to graphics cards for AMD.

3. About reverse charging
Reverse charging is not supported, because it is easy to burn the motherboard.

4. What do I need to prepare for use?
You need to prepare a PC power supply, a DC power supply, a cable for Thunderbolt or a USB4 data cable according to your external devices.

5. About cables
We have made a quality USB4 data cable for you.

6. About transmission speed
Our graphics card dock adopts JHL6340 and its transmission speed is about 2750MB/s, 2750*8/1024=21.5G. It can be used on both systems for Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Many other docking stations use JHL7440, with a transfer speed of 3000MB/s and a speed of 23.5G. However, due to the hardware design of many products, there will be many errors when they are used in Windows 11, and only on the 1809 and 1903 versions of Windows 10 can they be used stably, which greatly limits the user group and customers.

7. Is it suitable for MacBook laptops?
Whether your laptops are using chips for Intel or M series, we can only guarantee that these systems can recognize our GPU dock, and customers need to solve the driver by themselves. Of course, the driver problem is for the graphics card. And when we used the hard disk (for NVME) on a laptop for MacBook, the 10 Gigabit network card could be used normally.

8. How much power do I need for PC power supply or DC power supply?
If you want to use an external non-graphics device, such as 10 Gigabit network card, hard disk for NVME, FPGA, audio acquisition card, etc., you can use a 12V 3A power supply (especially large power supply depends on the power of your device).

If you use an external half height video card which is less than 75W, such as 6400, choose a power supply of more than 12V 7A according to the power of the graphics card.

If you use a graphics card larger than 75W, please leave a margin of more than 20% according to the power consumption of the graphics card and the output of the PC power supply is 12V.

9. About M.2 external connections
We do not recommend M.2 transfers. The reasons are as follows: First of all, under normal circumstances, there are only two M2 interfaces in a laptop, one is for M2 hard disk, and the other is a network card (this is PCIEX1 bandwidth, and the graphics card can hardly be used). Some thin and light laptops even have only one M2 connector (except for special models). Secondly, every time you use it, you need to open the back cover of the laptop and lead out the M.2 adapter. Finally, not connecting or removing the battery can easily cause the motherboard to be burned directly, which causes higher costs.

10. About loss and performance
First of all, the loss is closely related to your CPU, graphics card model, cable for Thunderbolt, operating system, software settings, game optimization, and output quality. We can't give an exact value for this. Second, because it supports external devices, losses are relatively controllable. If your devices are plugged in for an add-in, we recommend that you use a desktop computer directly. When you only has a laptop which has a port for Thunderbolt, and want to use the laptop to play games or do some work that must be done by the substitute graphics card, we recommend buying this external graphics card dock.

If you use a display to play games, it is recommended to buy a graphics card under 3080. If you use a touchscreen to play games, you can buy a 4090 graphics card. At present, the same hardware, different systems have big differences: Win10 professional version > Win11 professional version = Win10 other version > Win11 other version

11. About quality:
Each GPU dock is delivered after rigorous testing, and there are basically no quality problems.
