- GPU Video Memory (RAM): 16 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a GPU’s, or graphics cards, short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the GPU can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, larger amounts of RAM for gaming or video editing increases performance.)
- GPU Video Memory Type (RAM): GDDR6 (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
- Slot Size: External GPU (A graphics card only requires one PCIe/PCI slot for connection to the motherboard but, depending on size, may block other slots. The slot size listed by the manufacturer is therefore not an exact measurement of the card's size but an indication of how much clearance will be available after it is installed.)
- PCI Express Version: PCI Express 3.0
- Product Height: 32.6 millimeters (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)

- Product Length: 165 millimeters (The out of box length of the item. Length is measured as the longest dimension of the item.)
- Graphics Processing Unit (GPU): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 (Often referred to as a graphics card, a graphics processing unit (GPU) is the electronic circuitry responsible for manipulating and processing computer graphics/images and accelerating video decoding. Ultimately, a powerful GPU will provide a boost for anything involving visuals, including games, graphic design, and video editing.)

All members of the ROG Flow laptop family have a secret weapon – the XG Mobile. ROG’s exclusive XG Mobile ecosystem of external GPUs provide amped-up horsepower and offer a built in I/O hub, allowing higher bandwidth to Flow devices with a proprietary PCIe connection. The XG Mobile features an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU with a max TGP of 150W, allowing you to transform your Flow device from a mobile gaming laptop to a true battlestation.
- Go for Pro-Level Speed: Our top config has a brand-new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU. Build out a complete battlestation with a gaming mouse, gamepad, and more via one USB Type-C and three flexible USB Type-A ports.
- Next-level Cooling: Featuring a vapor chamber on the GPU die, the XG Mobile can provide up to 150W of power to the GPU without breaking a sweat.
- I/O Expansion: HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, 4 USB 3.2 Gen2, an SD card reader and a 2.5G ethernet port make any XG Mobile-conntect device a true battle station with once cable.
- Flex Next-Gen Versatility: Despite a form factor just 7% of the size of typical eGPUs, the XG Mobile offers uncompromised power for graphics-intensive tasks like gaming, multimedia editing, rendering, and more. Its ultra-compact dimensions weigh just 1.3kg, making it easy-to-carry anywhere.
- Integrated 330W Adapter: Delivers power directly to your Flow machine with an integrated 330W power adapter.
Q: When will this be available?
A: Other ASUS authorized retailers have pre-orders listed as shipping in July, but honestly that could just be a best guess. Anytime this year is fair game.
Q: Can you extract the gpu from the unit and use it on desktop pcs?
A: Unfortunately, the ASUS GC33Y (ROG XG Mobile) is designed as an external GPU dock for laptops and is not intended to be used as an internal GPU for desktop PCs. It connects to compatible ASUS laptops via a proprietary interface and is not compatible with desktop motherboards.
Q: When will this be available again?
A: undefined
A: Certainly, the overall system performance will be better since the RTX 4090 is a better GPU than the RTX 3080.
Q: Would a ROG Ally Z1 with the XG 4090 be able to play Half Life: Alex in VR on max settings?
A: Yes, a ROG Ally Z1 with the XG 4090 wil be able to play Half Life: Alex in VR on max settings.
Q: Will this work for lenovo legion go?
A: No, only for ASUS products/computers that take XG Mobile.
A: No, this is for ASUS products that accept XG Mobile.
Q: Is that for Asus Rog Ally hand device?
A: Yes, and if this is the only gaming pc you have, I would highly recommend!
