The downsides are that OCuLink connectors aren\u2019t particularly robust, only transmit PCIe data (no USB, no power for your laptop) and generally can\u2019t be hotplugged. \u201cOur recommendation to users is you\u2019re going to need to shut down and power back up,\u201d says Patel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1o279nj1 _1o279nj0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--related _1ymtmqpj _1m6r73h0\">\n<h3 class=\"_1m6r73h3 _1m6r73h1\">Related<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"_1m6r73h5\">\n<li class=\"_1m6r73h8 _1m6r73h6\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/pc-gaming\/606006\/nvidia-rtx-5090-egpu-gaming-handheld-oculink-test-pcie-minisforum-deg1\" class=\"_1m6r73h9\">I plugged an Nvidia RTX 5090 into a gaming handheld<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The other reason it\u2019s labeled a Dev Kit is because what Framework is offering is intentionally barebones to keep costs low.
