This versatile graphics-card docking station transforms your laptop into a high-performance machine – ideal for design and video editing
If you want to perform intensive computing tasks on a laptop or desktop with native or basic graphics, you'll find it a problem – and video editing in particular can often be a nightmare.
The Peladn Link S-1 e-GPU Dock provides a simple solution to this problem and allows you to connect an external graphics card to your computer. It supports a wide range of NVIDIA and AMD products.
However, Peladn recommends using an RX570 or higher for AMD cards, and a GTX1060 or higher for Nvidia cards.
Stay cool
To get started, users must first add their own suitable power supply to power the dock and graphics card. The S-1 has connectors for ATX and SFX PSUs.
Then add the graphics card and connect the dock to your computer and network. The S-1 has two Thunderbolt 3 ports, which provide lightning-fast data transfer speeds of up to 40 Gbps.
The S-1's compact design means it takes up minimal desk space, although it will expand significantly in size once you add the PSU.
The dock has a built-in open cooling design that effectively dissipates heat to ensure optimal performance even under heavy use.
The Peladn Link S-1 e-GPU Dock is currently available for purchase at Geekbuyingpriced at $229.99.
