** Note: if you want to share a microSD card between Windows/Linux Steam games, the card needs to be formatted to exFAT so both operating systems can read it. I recommend setting up the card on your Windows partition first to make it seamless. From there you can install and play games from either side.

GPD G1 review: youtu.be/x0HmCAmBpow?si=W3FKW6vYknNnZSiM
** Note that in my testing, I think my audio drivers were hosed. I had to force some AMD driver updates to get the eGPU working, and when uninstalling those drivers to revert back to stock, I think I also nuked the audio drivers, which is why they were so quiet in my testing. Other reviewers are not having the same volume issues as me, so that's likely the culprit. **
