If you’re in the market for an external GPU enclosure to power up your laptop for gaming, you might be interested in Zotac’s pair of new offerings, which come in both normal and ‘mini’ sizes.
The Zotac Amp Box (pictured above and below) Measures 271 x 257 x 146mm and has a 450W power supply nestling inside, with the ability to fit up to a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card. More specifically, the box can take any graphics card 228mm long and rated up to 250W of power usage.
As for the smaller Zotac Amp Box Mini (pictured below), it measures 230 x 183 x 99mm, runs with a 180W power supply, capable of accommodating up to a GeForce GTX 1060. As long as the graphics card is up to 200mm in length, and has a maximum of 150W in power consumption, it should work with the Amp Box Mini.
