AYANEO AG01 Starship Graphics Dock is set to be available in late November at a price of $599

AYANEO makes a plethora of commendable products, including eGPU docks. The brand’s newest AG01 Starship Graphics Dock will soon join the family, with a shipping date set for the end of November. The dock sports a fascinating design which, unfortunately, might be a tad too ostentatious for some.

The unit is powered by the RDNA 3-based Radeon RX 7600M XT graphics card. It is by no means the fastest kid on the block, but is still a very decent GPU, and should provide ample performance for most gaming and creative tasks. But that’s not all – as the name suggests, the AG01 Starship also functions as a dock with a respectable array of ports including a USB 4 port with PD, an RJ 45 Gigabit LAN port, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, along with an M.2 2280 PCIe 3.0 slot for storage.

Moreover, video output capabilities are taken care of by dual DisplayPort 2.0 connectors, as well as dual HDMI 2.1 ports. The included OCuLink port is an excellent addition, allowing for speeds up to 64 Gbps thanks to its PCIe 4.0×4 interface. However, there is a catch. When the OCuLink port is utilized, the dock functionality of the AG01 Starship will not be possible. For that purpose, the slower USB 4 connection has to be used.

As already mentioned, the AG01 Starship Graphics Dock from AYANEO will commence shipping towards the end of next month. With a price tag of $599, the eGPU is priced reasonably enough, but potential customers are encouraged to be mindful of the fact that future-generation GPUs from AMD are just around the corner, if the early-2025 launch rumors are taken to be true.
