Additionally, the average FPS is listed based on all laptops they tested in the game with the game graphics chip, but not necessarily the same CPU. Not every game is tested for every graphics chip. Underneath 'Benchmark List' you will see 'Notebook Gaming List' this will provide you with a table game benchmarks for the graphic chips. A few desktop GPUs are included for comparison purposes. In the center column of the page you will see a link to 'Benchmark List' this will provide you with a table of synthetic benchmark results for graphic chips that has tested. Just because Brand X and Brand Y laptops lists the same CPU and GPU, they can have different performance results. Game benchmarks can have multiple FPS numbers listed click the FPS number for details of the specific laptop that provided that FPS benchmark. Scroll down a bit and you will see synthetic benchmarks and below that will be game benchmarks. Http /That page gives you a bit of info about the GTX 960m. The link below is for the nVidia GTX 960m. They include synthetic and game benchmarks to help you compare overall performance. A single laptop that’s highly portable for daily use would transform into a capable gaming machine or workstation thanks to the power of an external graphics is probably the best resource for you to look at and compare various mobile graphic chips.

Flexibility and convenience is Thunderbolt 3 & 4’s best selling point so it became the chosen standard input/output for external graphics solution.

Thunderbolt 3 & 4 can now be integrated to the same physical port as USB-C. Thunderbolt 3 & 4 External GPU Enclosure OverviewĮxternal graphics card adapter or external GPU enclosure is an ever-developing solution for laptop users who need more power (than integrated graphics) for gaming, AR/VR development, AI/machine learning, and many other high demand computing tasks. Here ◄ eGPU Port Bandwidth Reference Table for CUDA-Z or AIDA64 measured bandwidth Alpine Ridge (DSL6xxx/JHL6xxx) does not.Ĩ Allows eGPU detection in Windows for systems reporting “external GPUs supported: no” in the Intel Thunderbolt software.ĩ If require a longer TB3 cable, consider these: US$50 AKiTiO 200cm, $50 Cable Matters 100cm.ĩ USB4 systems have stricter USB4-certified cable requirements where these are confirmed to give full performance: Anker 515 1m USB4 cable, Spigen 0.8m USB4 cable, Orico 2m active TB3, SKY USB4 4k 240w cable, Ultunite USB4 cable. Note: Intel often disallows a 2nd TB3 port on eGFX enclosures.Ħ ports’ use reduces eGPU bandwidth by up to 31.2% 15.6% Except for (i) Displayport devices (ii) XG Station 2 that hosts ports off a separate USB-B cable.ħ USB-based enclosure I/O ports exhibit flaky behavior under load as described, except those using a 2nd TB3 controller to host I/O ports.ħ Titan Ridge (JHL7xxx) as found in EXP GDC TH3P4G3, AKiTiO Node Titan, CM MasterCase EG200 and others gives ~10% more PCIe bandwidth than older Alpine Ridge (DSL6xxx/JSL6xxx) though has a negligible affect on game FPS as discussed.ħ Titan Ridge (JHL7540) allows internal routing of onboard GPU DisplayPort signals for Thunderbolt 3 monitor output.
