It has a USB 3.0 connectivity, 550W 80 Plus Gold-certified SFX power supply , Nvidia’s most-powerful GeForce and Quadro graphics cards also can be seen in the list of supported graphics. It can also house AMD Radeon GPUs ranging from the R9 285 to the RX 500 series. But RX Vega left off the official compatibility list, but the PowerColor Gaming Station can be a good option based on its flexibility and vast support of different graphics.

Computex was where we first saw the eGPU, This is the second eGPU dock from PowerColor; the company already released a similar device called the Devil Box, and it has been rather quiet about the Gaming Box since it was first revealed.

The PowerColor Gaming Station is a Thunderbolt 3-powered external graphics. It is 343.2 x 163 x 245mm, compatible with both AMD Radeon and Nvidia GeForce and Quadro graphics cards measuring up to 310mm in length. It features a 550W SFX power supply, giving it enough power to power top-tier graphics cards. The Gaming Station is able to accommodate Nvidia’s flagship GPU, the GTX 1080 Ti, but AMD graphics compatibility stops at the RX 500 series, leaving the recently released Radeon RX Vega 64 and RX Vega 56 out of the running.

Pricing and availability of the PowerColor Gaming Station is still unknown.
