A new wireless external graphics card, called the WiCi One, aims to provide desktop-class GPU performance without the need for high-bandwidth cables like OcuLink or Thunderbolt 5. By leveraging Wi-Fi 7 networks, multiple devices can share the card's computing power for gaming and AI tasks. Sponsored by Nvidia's Inception Program, the WiCi One supports popular software applications, games, and devices, including laptops, tablets, phones, and AI tools like Hugging Face and Adobe Premiere Pro.
The device is expected to launch in late 2026, with two models available: one featuring an Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti and another with an RTX 5090. Benchmarks show the 5060 Ti edition delivering around 80fps in Cyberpunk 2077 and 60fps in Black Myth: Wukong at 4K ultra settings, while the RTX 5090 version achieves 110fps in Cyberpunk and 90fps in Wukong.
AI throughput also improves with the premium model, reaching up to 500 tokens per second in Gemma 4. Users can potentially win a WiCi One by submitting creative use case ideas, with 10 winners chosen based on the most compelling concepts.
