Minisforum is announcing its new external graphics card dock, the DEG1 eGPU model, which brings a minimalist approach to connecting your hardware to your mini PC or notebook. Its OCuLink interface delivers a bandwidth of 64 Gbps and works with the PCIe Gen4 connection.
Despite being a visually appealing option and having support for popular GPUs such as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 or the more powerful ones – GeForce RTX 4090 and AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX – it is important to mention that some of the performance of high-end hardware will be lost due to bandwidth limitations.
Although this can be a nuisance for those looking to get the most out of what the experience could offer, the Minisforum DEG1 eGPU Dock has an interesting feature that automatically turns on when the PC starts – if it is already connected to your device.
Furthermore, the external dock for GPUs also requires the user to purchase, separately, an ATX or SFX power supply to have the necessary power for the graphics card operations. If you want to keep your setup “clean”, it is recommended to look for compact models or modular options to maintain your minimalist look.
According to the Minisforum DEG1 eGPU Dock page, its suggested retail price will be $99 dollars and sales are expected to start in mid-July.

Minisforum’s focus on mini PCs
Compact computers, the use of notebooks and even portable devices have grown significantly in recent years and it is this aspect that Minisforum turns its attention to when launching the DEG1 eGPU Dock. Its intention is to bring an option to consumers who want to continue using their devices with greater performance.
It is important to note that, recently, we also had the launch of Copilot+ PCs – which feature a Snapdragon X processor from Qualcomm and an integrated Adreno GPU. It is made to work directly with artificial intelligence, bringing weaker results in relation to gaming – which an external dock could make a difference.
