Hi all,
Just wondering how progress is on eGPU docks? I want to upgrade my GPU at some point and thought it might be cool to put it in a dock and connect it to a laptop. The laptop has a couple thunderbolt ports.
How’s compatibility these days?

I don’t think hot switching is an issue. It would be setup and not disconnected unless I’m traveling. Does it use the egpu for everything when its connected? Or can you set it up like hybrid where it’ll only use it for games etc?
I use it for everything, because I connected my external monitors through the eGPU. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME has a few methods for running only selected applications via the eGPU, but I haven’t tried them. Edit: See also https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/External_GPU#Xorg for eGPU specific setups.
Perfect. Thanks!
