Aoostar is now offering the XG76XT eGPU globally. Unusually, the company has opted for a desktop AMD GPU, which it has paired with OCuLink and USB4 connectivity.

Hmm yeah they missed the price point on this one.

RX 7600 16GB is about $330 right now.
RX 7600 8GB is about $259 right now.

So for $600+ what more do you get? A nice tight integrated package and a power cut of 40w that may or may not work out well long term. So $341 ~ ish for a Egpu dock and psu. Depending on needs Egpu dock can be had as little as $60 psu, under $100. Used PC case to house it all or cheap itx case, $60. So yeah they arent making bank on these but gotta say its too much imo.
