The Thunderbolt 5 connection that is equivalent to PCIe 4.0 X4 is advertised to lag only 5% behind a desktop variant running on a PCIe 4.0 X16 slot. Granted, TB5 is not that mainstream as of yet, so the port is USB4 backwards compatible, as well. In addition to the eGPU side, Aorus RTX 5060 Ti AI Box may also act as a docking station with 3x USB-A 10 Gbps ports and Ethernet card.
