The Razer Core X might be the best choice, but it's not the only one. If you have a graphics card available already it's a no-brainer, but even on a budget you can now get great deals on new or used units that would be a perfect companion to a Razer Core X. An eGPU with embedded graphics both costs more initially (not factoring in an additional graphics card purchase) but hasn't that upgrade path, leading you to have to buy an entirely new unit down the road. In the long term, you'll never need to replace the Razer Core X, only upgrading what's inside if you need more power.
It's also worth considering just why it's better to get an eGPU that you'll have to supply the graphics card to. And because it keeps the cost down, you've potentially got more funds to put towards the GPU it will house. The Core X also supports both NVIDIA and AMD, so you really do have your pick. It also means plenty of overhead, so literally any modern graphics card will work without any issue. Of its 650W on tap, 100W is left free to power the laptop connected to it, which is super convenient.
That single cable connection to your is all you need, since the Core X has its own power supply to keep everything juiced up. What you can do with the Core X is install a full desktop graphics card, even an RTX 2080 Ti if you wish, and use it with your laptop over Thunderbolt 3. The Core X is Razer's most affordable eGPU.
The space has developed a little since then, and the Core X is Razer's most affordable eGPU to date at just $300. The Razer Core was first launched as a companion to the Blade Stealth, adding gaming chops to the company's first true Ultrabook and arguably bringing the idea of an eGPU to the masses.
