AOOSTAR's new XG76XT external GPU enclosure is listed on Chinese retailer JD for 3399 yuan (which converts to around $470 USD) with a regular retail price of 3499 yuan. The new external GPU solution is perfect for laptop or compact PC owners that want more graphics performance, without the bulk of a desktop PC.

The new XG76XT external GPU uses a full desktop-class Radeon RX 7600 XT, packing 32 CUs of RDNA 3 GPU power, and 16GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit memory interface. The Radeon RX 7600 XT graphics card supports 190W TGP in desktop configurations, while AOOSTAR's new XG76XT external GPU is limited to 150W. The AOOSTAR XG76XT at 150W will beat mobile versions like the RX 7600M XT, which is in other external GPUs, which is usually limited to 120W.

AOOSTAR uses a custom thermal solution that features a vapor chamber, a full copper heatsink, and a fan inside of a top-mounted honeycomb ventilation design that looks great. The company includes an external 330W power adapter, which is required to pull the power draw of a desktop-grade GPU.

AOOSTAR includes some great I/O on the XG76XT external GPU enclosure, with both USB4 and OCulink connectivity providing flexibility for users, with the USB4 interface running on PCIe 4.0 lanes, making it faster than older external GPU solutions that use PCIe 3.0 tunneling. The XG76XT also supports 100W of reverse power delivery, letting you charge connected laptops across the same cable.

On the display connectivity side of things, with 1 x HDMI 2.1 port, 2 x DisplayPort 2.1 ports, and 1 x USB-C port with 15W of Power Delivery support. This means that you can drive high-resolution and high refresh rate monitors through the AOOSTAR XG76XT, and while you're not going to be gaming at 4K 120FPS, you can output your display to a high-end monitor.
