ASUS Unveils ROG XG2 Graphics Enclosure
ASUS unveiled a Republic of Gamers branded XG2 external graphics enclosure, which uses bandwidth from two USB 3.1 ports to power not just a high-end graphics card, but also additional connectivity such as a pair of USB 3.0 type-A ports, and gigabit Ethernet. One source tells us that the USB 3.1 ports are bi-directional, and can be used to increase bandwidth to the enclosure. A single Thunderbolt 3 port provides the same amount of bandwidth, but is known to post higher latencies due to protocol layer.

If it is a yes, and they can make this product easily available for purchase, plus having cheaper or at least competitive price compared to Razer Core, they really have a winner here.
It's main competition, Razer Core is nice...but for us outside of US....we can't even have our hands on Stealth ( through local Razer Store ), so I can't imagine how long before the Core will be available for the rest of us.
EDIT : Found it in the second picture. Now I understand.
