The OneXGPU 2 has officially launched as the first external GPU featuring the new Radeon RX 7800M. Notably, this eGPU was announced prior to AMD's official release of the 7800M, and One-NetBook has now disclosed the pricing details. For the first 96 hours after its arrival on Indiegogo, the price will be set at $839.
Price Increase After Launch
After the initial 96-hour period, the cost of the eGPU will rise to $899, marking a $200 increase compared to the first OneXGPU available on Amazon. In terms of performance, One-Netbook has indicated that this new external GPU is capable of surpassing the Nvidia RTX 4070 Laptop GPU.
Performance Comparison
For context, the original OneXGPU, which utilized the AMD Radeon 7600M, was designed to outshine the desktop RTX 3060. Similar to its predecessor, the newer model is equipped with OCuLink and USB 4. The OCuLink connection is particularly significant as it supports bandwidth of up to 64 Gbps, while the USB 4 can reach a maximum of 40 Gbps.
Storage Expansion Features
An exciting feature of the OneXGPU 2 is its ability to function as a storage expansion solution. This external GPU can accommodate an SSD of up to 4 TB and includes a MicroSD 4.0 slot. In addition to the OCuLink and USB4 ports, this new eGPU comes with several other features.
One-Netbook plans to launch the OneXGPU 2 on Indiegogo starting on September 26. There will also be bundle options available, which include the AMD OneXPlayer X1 in a single package. The starting price for these bundles will be $1,908, but during the first 96 hours, they will be available for $1,838.
