The GPD G1 is a multitasking USB/Thunderbolt dock and external GPU, with the AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT and a 240W power supply in one compact package. It also has connectivity options for Oculink, USB-4, and Thunderbolt 3 & 4, making it an excellent upgrade option for most handheld and mini PCs on the market today. In this video we'll take a look at its specs, do a full suite of tests, and compare it against other eGPU solutions available right now.
