    Modern workstations increasingly use more than one computer. Programmers work simultaneously on work and personal computers, graphic designers use high-performance workstations and laptops, and home users want to switch conveniently between their work computer and their gaming computer. For such applications, KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switches are the ideal solution, allowing users to control multiple computers using a single keyboard, mouse, and set of monitors.

    Just a few years ago, choosing the right USB cable was simple. Today, the situation is completely different. The market offers USB-C, USB 10 Gb/s, USB 20 Gb/s, USB4, Thunderbolt 4, and Thunderbolt 5. Although many of these standards use the same connector, their capabilities can vary dramatically. In this article, we explain what USB-C is, the differences between USB 3.2 and USB4, and how to choose the right accessories for use with Apple computers, PCs, docking stations, and professional peripherals.

eGPU - what is it?

An eGPU (external Graphics Processing Unit) is an external graphics card that can be connected to a computer via an external interface, such as Thunderbolt or USB4. The main purpose of an eGPU is to enhance a computer's graphics capabilities, especially for laptops, which often have integrated graphics cards with limited processing power.

Connecting an eGPU to your computer allows you to use a more powerful graphics card, which is especially useful for graphics-intensive areas such as gaming, graphic design, and video editing. It works by transferring the graphics calculations of the integrated graphics card to an external unit, which usually leads to a significant increase in graphics performance.

eGPUs are often used in situations where users need additional graphics power, but are unwilling or unable to upgrade the built-in graphics card in their computer. This technology is particularly popular among laptop users, who typically have limited hardware upgrade options.

To build a high-performance eGPU system you need, among other things, an external enclosure with a Thunderbolt or USB4 interface, an internal PCIe 3.0 x16 slot and a powerful power supply that can handle demanding PCIe graphics cards.

Such an enclosure is, for example, the AKiTiO Node Titan from OWC. This is an enclosure with a Thunderbolt interface PCIe 3.0 x16 connector and a 650W power supply. This configuration allows the installation of the most powerful graphics cards.
