Computex 2017: PowerColor (TUL) Shows their Gaming Box

PowerColor hosted its meetings like they always do, behind closed doors in a meeting room. This year is all about the Radeon Rx 500 series from them. You have probably read our 570 and 580 Devil series reviews already. These they do have on display. 

The word was out is that they do have Radeon Rx VEGA on display, but I’m afraid that is a bit no-no. Radeon RX 500 is the word, and of course the new gaming Box. Okay, so like if you have a flashback to last year, possible. It is a new model though. PowerColor will display a new external graphics card solution on Computex. The new Devil Box based on AMD XConnect Technology will be named, Gaming Box.

The Gaming Box is just that, a box that'll hold a graphics card (external solution), not just a Radeon graphis card, but it actually shoud/would be able to house a GeForce graphics card as it simple functions as extended PCI-Express x16 port. PowerColor obviously will brand the product with their own Red Devil or Red Dragon RX 570/580 series video cards. The units connects towards Thunderbolt 3, likely over USB Type-C. Thunderbolt 3 is capable of 40Gbps, but does require the same connector on your PC / laptop.  The Gaming Box will have its own power supply though, we expect a 450~500 Watt unit. It is not yet known what the Gaming Box will cost. The 2015 model Devil Box did costs around the €419,- marker.

I took some photos of their products on display. Have a peek.
