Asus Rog XG Station 3 EGPU Launched to use video card outside the PC

A Asus Revelou was Computex 2025 the third generation of the Rog XG Station, a External Video Plate Dock that reaches a new phase in high performance graphic connectivity for compact notebooks and PCs.

Now with Thunderbolt 5 support, The equipment is positioned as a graphic expansion solution capable of delivering up to 80 gbps of bandwidth in channels bidirectionalwith 40 more Unidirectional Gbps – performance that promises to reduce bottlenecks and maintain the efficiency of the GPUs even outside the internal environment of the cabinet.

Design inspired by spacecraft and refined thermal engineering

The look of the Rog XG Station 3 was redesigned based on aesthetics of the Rog Astral line, joining dark tones with metallic details and angular finish that refers to a space capsule.

The wide carcass It houses with large video signs of large dimensionswhile protecting against impacts and facilitates air flow. Extra care has been taken to prevent users from having to handle cables insecurely: the dock It has a smart fitting and feeding systemcompatible with various standards.

Inside the structure, There is an 1000W SFX sourcesufficient to support GPUS with consumption of up to 600W TGP.

This makes the dock able to deal with top -of -the -line video cards like GeForce RTX 5090. Food is done by Traditional Connectors 12V-2 × 6 or by the new GC-HPWR standard-which allows direct rear connection to BTF standard compatible plates, dispensing with the need for visible cables in the setup.

As we said, one of the main advances of this version is reallyUporte to Thunderbolt 5. With this, the ROG XG Station 3 allows you to achieve Up to 80% of the performance of a PCIE connection 5.0 x16 when used with plates like RTX 5090.

Such a feat is a considerable leap compared to previous generations of EGPU, which faced significant limitations due to bandwidth.

In addition, the dock includes Three USB-C portsexpanding notebook connectivity options and mini-PCs-audiences that usually suffer from interface limitation.

With Thunderbolt 5 and 1000W internal source, the Rog XG Station 3 eliminates bottlenecks and delivers up to 80% of the performance of a plate installed directly on the PCIE slot

The product is compatible with plates NVIDIA RTX 50 e AMD Radeon RX 9000including newly named models such as the ROG Astral RTX 5090 of 32 GB GDDR7 and Tuf Gaming RTX 5070 of De 16 GB.

Both plates support the BTF standard, with the removable GC-HPWR connector and the possibility of use with conventional motherboards through the 12V-2 × 6, which expands the versatility and accessibility of these GPUS.

A product for gamers, creators and ia

With the new generation, Asus intends to serve both players who want more performance on notebooks and creators who work with video editing, 3D rendering or AI applications.

The Rog XG Station 3, when using external video cards, delivers a greater balance between power and mobilityallowing the user to use a top line GPU out of the case without giving up performance.

The dock still integrates lighting ASUS Aura Sync And it maintains a compact but robust design that can be easily transported.
