By leveraging advanced Thunderbolt 5 connectivity, it transforms mobile devices into powerful workstations capable of running demanding games and creative software. While it provides massive throughput and room for wide GPUs, users should note that the enclosure requires a separate purchase of both a compatible desktop graphics card and an ATX power supply.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Razer Core X V2, follow these steps:

Installation: Open the chassis, slide in your chosen ATX power supply, and install the GPU into the PCIe slot, ensuring it is properly secured.
Connection: Use the provided Thunderbolt cable to connect the enclosure to your device's Thunderbolt 5 (or compatible) port.
Drivers: Ensure your system is running Windows 10 RS5 or Windows 11. Install the latest GPU drivers for your specific card from the manufacturer's website.
Care: Keep the enclosure in a well-ventilated area. Periodically clean the vent holes with compressed air to prevent dust buildup, which can impact the performance of the 120 mm internal fan.
