Have you had any experience using a graphics dock? I was talking about it the other day and while it seems like a nice idea I've yet to encounter anyone who's actually used one and can speak to how good compatibility is.
- lmm 10y agoMy Surface Book is effectively that (the better GPU is in the detachable half) and compatibility is perfect (once had an issue where a game used the wrong card, detached and reattached and it was all fine, drivers have updated since then) - admittedly that's a system where everything is first-party and designed to work that way.
- jsheard 10y agoUp to this point graphics docks have either been hacked together or proprietary one-offs, so they're not widely used. Standardized TB3 graphics docks are coming very soon though. https://youtu.be/vGFRoWj0YOw?t=181 https://youtu.be/vGFRoWj0YOw?t=181 Compatibility wise they're supposed to work with any laptop that has Thunderbolt 3, supports the Intel eGPU UEFI extension, and is running Windows 10.
