If you want even more power, Beelink has Core Ultra options.
More powerful video cards need additional power.
This allows an external GPU to be slotted on and also powered externally.

It also does other things that we’ll discuss later.
Available in two colours, defined as Frost Silver and Space Grey.
When you consider it comes with a power supply, unlike most OCuLink docks, that’s a bargain.
Although there is so much exposed metal, some heat is also going to be radiated by the case.
Therefore, the power inlet is a two-core cable directly to the mains power.
Then you are confronted with a dust shield that requires another four screws.
At this point, the memory and M.2 slots between you are the PSU and the internally mounted speakers.
In essence, Beelink successfully turned this portable CPU into a desktop one.
The GRE option was initially exclusive to China but has recently been released globally.
The numbers, as it’s plain to see, are extraordinary.
And, in the GeekBench OpenCL and Vulkan tests, it’s more than eight times faster.
But does it make the Beelink GTi12 Ultra an alternative to a PC workstation?
Conversely, the RTX 4060 scored 3182.48, whereas the much higher specification RX 7900 GRE achieved only 2695.91.
TheDell Precision 7780mobile workstation was more than three times the price.
Possibly, but it would take up much more room.
We didn’t investigate other types of PCIe devices other than video cards with this hardware.
It’s a mystery why Beelink renamed this the GTi12 Ultra.
Should you buy a Beelink GTi12 Ultra?
Compared with a desktop processor, it doesn’t have the cores or performance of the top options.
It’s not a bad chip, it is just not a desktop CPU.
