Summary

DROIX blog review of the gpd-win-max-2. Published 2023-08-16 on droix.net.

And with the GPD G1 we again see some nice improvements across Oculink and USB connections. 99 frames per second at 4K is very good, giving you some options for higher quality visuals.
With the GPD G1 we see great performance on Oculink, nearly hitting 100 FPS on 4K. Again there’s plenty of extra FPS for higher quality visuals even at 4K.
The GPD G1 eGPU docking station performance is overall very good, with above 60 FPS at 1400P and below. It does struggle at 4K with a high of 40 FPS. 1440P is still very high, so there’s plenty of scope for higher quality visuals.
For Street Fighter 6 we are on the Highest graphics settings to really push the handheld. Both portable gaming PC’s struggle at these high settings and we can see the GPD WIN MAX 2 2023 barely makes it past 30 frames per second.
With the GPD G1 we get 60 frames per second at 1440P and below. At 4K we see some decent results, but not above 60 frames so you would probably want to lower the graphics a bit.
