Verdict

AOOSTAR AG02

7 / 10 Expert Rating

The fastest eGPU link you can buy for under $200, with a power button that does not work.

PowerColor Gaming Station Mini Pro

5.5 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely compact eGPU box for mid-range cards, but its small chassis caps out well below flagship-GPU compatibility.
