ONEXPLAYER ONEXGPU 2 teased in new announcement

The AMD Radeon RX 7800M, based on the RDNA 3 architecture, is set to power the upcoming ONEXGPU 2 eGPU docking station by ONEXPLAYER. This new graphics card is expected to bring significant performance improvements to the mobile gaming market, positioning itself as a competitive option in the high-end mini laptop and handheld gaming PC GPU segment.

RDNA 3 Architecture: A Deep Dive

RDNA 3, AMD’s latest GPU architecture, introduces significant enhancements over its predecessor, promising better performance for AAA titles. The architecture features a new dual compute unit design with increased floating-point throughput, doubling the FP32 performance per compute unit. Cache sizes have been expanded, with L0 and L1 caches doubling in capacity and L2 cache increasing by 1.5x compared to RDNA 2, making it optimal for AAA gaming. 

RDNA 3 also implements a chiplet design, separating the Graphics Compute Die (GCD) and Memory Cache Dies (MCDs), allowing for improved scalability and manufacturing flexibility. The architecture supports higher clock speeds, with the front end operating at 2.5 GHz and shaders at 2.3 GHz, resulting in up to 25% power savings. Additionally, RDNA 3 introduces a dedicated media engine based on VCN 4.0, offering improved encoding capabilities, including support for AV1 encoding.

A look back at the ONEXGPU’s Features and Specs

The ONEXPLAYER ONEXGPU was a versatile external graphics processing unit (eGPU) designed to enhance gaming and productivity performance for compatible devices. You can read our in depth ONEXPLAYER ONEXGPU review here. It features an AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT GPU with 32 compute units and 8GB of GDDR6 memory, offering significant graphical power in a compact form factor, suitable for a portable eGPU. The device measures 196 x 120 x 32 mm and weighs 863g, making it relatively portable for an eGPU. 

It boasts a range of connectivity options, including OcuLink and USB 4 ports for data transfer, HDMI and DisplayPort outputs for multi-monitor support, and a Gigabit Ethernet port. The ONEXGPU also includes an internal NVMe SSD slot for expandable storage and customizable RGB lighting. With its 300W power supply, it can deliver up to 100W of charging power to connected devices, making it ideal for a portable eGPU setup. Users have praised its build quality, performance improvements, and ease of use, particularly when paired with handheld gaming PCs like the ONEXPLAYER X1 AMD and ONEXPLAYER X1 Mini.
