Enhance the capabilities of your Mac with the Radeon RX 5500XT eGPU Breakaway Puck from Sonnet. This portable design features a fully functioning Radeon RX 5500XT graphics card with 4GB of GDDR4 VRAM that connects to your Mac via a Thunderbolt 3 cable. Whether you are working on video editing or just playing games, the eGPU grants you the ability to use graphically demanding software with ease, making this ideal for anyone looking to expand into a more robust desktop workstation.

The eGPU features two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports for your peripherals such as keyboards and mice. HDMI and DisplayPort outputs allow you to utilize multiple displays with resolutions up to 4K with 60 Hz refresh rate and 30-bit color HDR, giving you more screen real estate suitable for work and play. Dual Thunderbolt 3 ports allow you to fully embrace the power of the eGPU by giving you display support up to 6K resolution at 60 Hz and 60-watt power delivery for device charging. A secondary Thunderbolt 3 enabled monitor can be connected with an optional adapter, providing support for up to four displays simultaneously. Additionally, you can use an optional VESA mounting bracket kit to attach the eGPU to a monitor or desk to help save room.

Multi-Display Graphics Dock

Support up to three 4K displays simultaneously right out of the box with HDMI, DisplayPort, and Thunderbolt 3 outputs. A fourth display can be supported with an optional Thunderbolt 3 dual-display adapter. 5K and 6K displays, as well as Apple's Pro Display XDR, are also supported for an enhanced and clear picture.
