We Added A Powerful eGPU To The New Minisforum V3 Ryzen Tablet Now Its Crazy FAST

**Hands-on Review: Minum V3 Tablet with AMD Ryzen 7600 MXT and Radeon RX 7600 XT GPU**

We are excited to share our hands-on experience with the Minum V3 tablet, a device that promises to deliver impressive performance on-the-go. Our test unit comes equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7600 MXT CPU and an Radeon RX 7600 XT GPU, which we will put through its paces in this review.

**3DMark Night Raid Benchmark**

Our first benchmark of the day is 3DMark Night Raid, a synthetic test that measures the performance of our device's GPU. We are running all tests at 28 watts TDP on the CPU and on the built-in Radeon RX 780M GPU. The results are impressive: 2,973 points for the RX 7600 MXT, compared to 7,059 points for the stock RX 780M. This is a significant jump in performance, indicating that the RX 7600 XT GPU will be able to handle demanding games and applications with ease.

**Gaming Performance**

We move on to gaming performance, testing a range of popular titles to see how the Minum V3 tablet holds up. First up is Hell Divers at 1080p ultra settings, where we are locked at 60 FPS. We expected this to be a challenge, but in reality, the device handles it with ease. Next, we move on to Forza Horizon 5 at 1440 Ultra no FSR, and again, the device delivers an average of 89 FPS. Red Dead Redemption 2 is another game that surprises us, delivering an average of 90 FPS at 1080p ultra settings. However, some games can be more finicky, as we see with Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 at 1440p high settings across the board, where we are able to achieve an average of 85 FPS.

**Cyberpunk 2077 and Other Games**

We also test Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p ultra settings, achieving a respectable average of 73 FPS. This is not bad for a game that can be notoriously demanding on hardware. Finally, we take a look at the built-in Radeon RX 780M GPU, which scores an impressive 31,800 points in Time Spy. When paired with the RX 7600 XT GPU, this increases to 95,99, demonstrating significant performance gains.

**Real-World Performance**

We conclude our benchmarking by looking at real-world performance in games that are typically more challenging for devices like this. We test Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Spider-Man: Remastered, which can be notoriously difficult to run on external GPUs. However, the Minum V3 tablet handles them with ease, delivering smooth frame rates and low latency.

**VLink Port and Connectivity**

One of the most exciting features of the Minum V3 tablet is its VLink port, which allows for seamless connection between the device's GPU and a traditional PCIe graphics card. Unfortunately, we are unable to take full advantage of this feature at present, as our attempts to use reverse HDMI-to-USB-C adapters have been unsuccessful. However, we are hopeful that future software updates will enable us to unlock the full potential of the VLink port.

**Conclusion**

The Minum V3 tablet is an impressive device that delivers exceptional performance on-the-go. With its AMD Ryzen 7600 MXT CPU and Radeon RX 7600 XT GPU, it is well-equipped to handle demanding games and applications. While we have encountered some quirks with specific titles, the overall experience has been positive, and we are excited to see how this device will perform in real-world use cases.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey what's going on everybody it's ETA Prime back here again today we're going to be turning the world's first ryzen powered Windows 11 tablet into a full-fledged gaming PC by adding a pretty powerful GPU so what we've got here is minus form's brand new V3 AMD powered tablet it's actually the world's first I've done a couple videos on it I personally really do like this thing we've got a beautiful 14-in display it's powered by a ryzen 7 88000 Series Apu and by itself it can actually game really well because we've got built-in rdna 3 Graphics this will run cyberpunk it runs hell divers 2 it's actually a really great performer we can take the TDP on this up to 28 Watts but we can always use a little bit more and luckily with this tablet we do have two USB 4 ports over on the side they both support 40 gig protocol so adding an external GPU whether it's a thunderbolt 3 Thunderbolt 4 or USB 4 e GPU is really simple with this and that's exactly what we're going to be doing in this video to get much better GPU performance out of this tablet it's actually pretty cool what this thing can do and of course if you're not familiar with the V3 tablet for the Apu you've got the AMD ryzen 78840 u a 14-in 1600p IPS display up to 165 HZ 32 GB of LP ddr5 running at 6,400 MHz and 1 terb m.2 SSD in order to add more graphics performance to this tablet obviously you will need an egpu there's a few small form factor egpus on the market like gpds G1 but in this video we're actually going to be using the 1X GPU I do like this thing and it's basically the same specs as that GPD G1 but we've got a couple extra features built in here and all we basically needed to do was plug in our USB 4 cable to one of those free USB 4 ports we've now got the AMD connect software up and running and instead of using the built-in Radeon 78m we've now got a Radeon RX 7600 MXT with 8 GB of gddr 6V RAM and this egpu also charges at up to 100 WS plus it'll do up to 120 watts on the GPU side of things so it's actually a pretty powerful little unit plus when connecting this we get some extra IO so up front here we've got two fullsize USB 3 ports over on the side ethernet two fulls siize display ports two fullsize HDMI ports this does support oculink but unfortunately the V3 tablet doesn't support culing but we've also got that USB 4 connector and our power in and what sets this egpu apart from others on the market right now is the fact that on the bottom here we can install an extra m.2 SSD so we can up the storage on whatever we have this connected to and again the 1X e GPU houses an AMD Radeon RX 7600 MXT with 8 gigs of vram if you're not too familiar with these egpus especially Thunderbolt 3 Thunderbolt 4 or USB for you know that connecting to a device like this and then trying to run on the built-in screen will really lower the performance of that egpu basically we're wasting about half of the bandwidth that this thing can put out over USB 4 which in the first place is only 40 gigs so we're still working with pretty low bandwidth when you compare it to a PCI ex16 slot in a real desktop PC and that's because it needs to send the signal out and then right back into that monitor so yeah we're not seeing the kind of performance that this RX7 600 MXT can put out you definitely want to connect this to an external Monitor and that's one of the big reasons these egpus have video outputs like display port and HDMI now the minus Forum V3 actually has a really cool feature built in known as vlink so over on the le- hand side there's an extra USB type-c port this will allow us to plug other devices in and basically use the 14in screen on the tablet as an external monitor but there's a problem when it comes to trying to go from AG to I 2 USB type-c I personally haven't found an adapter that'll work kind of in Reverse it's really easy to get USB type-c over to HDMI but trying to flip that around I personally haven't found a solution so if you do know of one let me know in the comments below I think this would be really cool that way we could feed right back into the Monitor and not waste any of that bandwidth with the egpu so the best option to get the most performance out of your egpu with the minus Forum V3 at least at the time of making this video is to use an external display I've got a 27in display here it's a 1440p display we've got the 1X GPU power going into it HDMI out of there and we're going to run that USB 4 cable right over to the V3 tablet and again while this is plugged in we're going to get that USB 4 connection to the egpu plus we'll be able to charge the tablet up we don't have to worry about battery life so we can run this at the maximum TDP of 28 Watts now you might notice that the bottom screen here just changed aspect ratio and that's because I needed to set my external display as my main display and it's a 16x9 aspect ratio display and the built-in screen on the tablet has an aspect ratio of 16 by10 right now we're at 1440p I don't mind the bars on the top and bottom and to tell you the truth whenever I use an egpu on a device like this with a built-in screen I usually just disable the screen itself but I wanted to keep both screens up to show you this thing working so far so good as you can see we've got that ryzen 7 8840 U eight cores 16 threads and we're going to be running this at 28 Watts the V3 does have built-in software from minus Forum with three different Power profiles so we can go to 15 watts we can go to 18 on battery or 22 plugged in and then our maximum performance will be that 28 watt mode so full out right now with this we should see some pretty good performance and I'll tell you I've run benchmarks on this I've tested games with the igpu and the first thing I wanted to take a look at were some benchmarks just comparing that 780m igpu to this external RX 7600 MXT first one we have here is 3D Mark night raate and remember we will be running all of these at that 28 watt TDP on the CPU and on the built-in 780m igpu with this Benchmark 2,973 but with that RX 7600 MXT 46777 so a nice jump in GPU performance so we definitely expect did this fire strike seeing similar things here 7,059 on the stock 780m 20, 56 on the egpu and finally we've got time spy on the built-in igpu we scored a 3,18 and with the RX 7600 MXT connected 9,599 now I completely understand that these are synthetic benchmarks and it really doesn't tell the whole story but yeah we definitely up the gaming performance here so let's go ahead and check out some games running on this device here's hell divers 1080p ultra settings I'm locked at 60 and I could not avoid this for some odd reason even taking the frame limiter in the game up just wouldn't go over 60 not sure if it was some setting in the AMD Radeon software or not but this is the first time I'm testing this game with an external GPU and some games do have some weird quirks when you're using an egpu next up Forza Horizon 5 definitely an easier one to run but I wanted to see if we could take this up to 1440 Ultra no FSR and it's totally possible we actually saw an average of 89 FPS Ultra 1440p on this thing Red Dead Redemption 2 just using the built-in Benchmark we're at 1080p ultra settings and this did way better than I thought it would sometimes when testing this game on an external GPU especially ther bolt 4 or even USB 4 we see some really bad performance but with this we had an average of 90 FPS and our minimum FPS was right in the 30s sometimes you'll see this dip way down especially using a connection like this with an egpu since the release of Spider-Man remastered and Spider-Man Miles Morales for PC I've had real issues using egpus with these games now it's definitely got better but it's not perfect so in some cases we can hit 90s and then in other cases you'll see it dip down to around 62 but I'll tell you one game that works really well with this setup here is Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 and going in I didn't exactly know what was going to happen of course the game is well optimized there's a lot of settings that we can change we're at 1440p high settings across the board no resolution scale so we are at a true 1440p with this average of 85 and a low of 66 in the final game I wanted to test here was cyberpunk 2077 so we're at 1080p ultra settings and we can run this at 1440 medium settings with some FSR but I wanted to see if it would handle it with no scaling and it's doing decent we had an average of 73 FPS I was hoping for a little more out of it but you know with any of this you can go ahead and turn vsync on lock it down at 60 and you will get a really smooth experience out of all of the games that we saw running today so yeah with the minus Forum V3 tablet on the go with the built-in igpu built-in battery seeing some decent performance out of a lot of the AAA games we've got those rdna A3 graphics and then when you get back to the house you want to really up that resolution you can go ahead and plug in an egpu now like I mentioned I would love to take advantage of the vlink port here but I haven't found a reverse HDMI to USB type-c adapter now regular adapters just won't work in Reverse at least all of the ones that I have and I've tested about four of them nothing will allow me to kind of connect it in reverse it's always USB type-c to HDMI I need it to be the other way around so if you do know of a solution let me know in the comments below I think that would be really cool just to have an all-in-one setup here without losing any of the bandwidth like we would if we were to feed it back through USB 4 but that's going to wrap it up for this video if you want to learn a little more about the minum V3 tablet I'll leave some links down below I've created two videos so far I'll also leave links to their official website if you've got any questions or you want to see anything else running
