System
This machine is an AIO, but it does have an HDMI in port. So technically you can run it as an external screen too.
Everything has been tested on the internal display. If you run a cable from the eGPU to the the HDMI-in port and then switch over to it, it squashes the entire image and messes up teh aspect ratio. I am not entirely sure why, but that's what it does and you can't change it. I also ran the numbers while in squished mode, and they were the same.
Comments
The only issue is that you're limited to 2x PCIex as pointed out by @joevt, but I'm happy with the outcome so far.
I will be testing a RTX 2060 down the line.

@daclina , thank you for your build. Have corrected the title as you note your system is using a 2-lane TB3 controller.
Your hwinfo64 and AIDA64 images reflect this. hwinfo64 showing the x2 Bus hosting your TB3 controller off Port #3.

I think a bit weird an i7 7700T LGA, limited to x2 lanes on TB3. I was expecting a x4 coming from a AIO with i7 LGA.
@nando4, Thanks for fixing it.
@mr.ribeiro I though the same. Then I realised the guides here on egpu.io did say that many 2017 and earlier laptops with TB3 ports were limiting it to 2 lanes (with the Razer Blade Stealth being an exception). From what I can see, the board on the AIO resembles a laptop board (which makes sense), so if is it using laptop parts, suddenly it starts making sense why it's limited to 2x.
