ASUS ROG XG Mobile

9 / 10 Expert Rating

The fastest ultra-compact eGPU available — an integrated RTX 5070 Ti with proprietary low-latency connectivity, limited exclusively to ROG Flow devices.

6 / 10 Expert Rating

A convenient plug-and-play eGPU for its era, but the fixed GTX 1070 is now well behind current GPU generations.
