I'm wondering why they didn't include a 10Gbps Ethernet port into this thing. They advertise it to professional graphics and video artists - don't these groups usually have to move around quite a lot of huge 3D data, image and video files?

It seems hard to imagine those people to either place all of that stuff exclusively on their new 8k$ MacBookPros with 4TB of SSD space (because even 4TB quickly runs out in that profession, and it makes it hard to work on the same project with other people) or to transfer it over 0,2Gbps (at best) WiFi connections.



Under heavy load eGPU completely saturates the PCIe bandwidth. Razer couldn't even get a USB mouse to not lag in their first eGPU product.


Two reasons: they have 40 Gbps thunderbolts and they love dongles.
