Tiny laptops have tiny TDP cpus which will bottleneck if you give them a big desktop class GPU. How about you put a CPU in the external solution as well, which could give you upgradable CPUs and more flexible RAM ;) :D
Sounds doable. Move the GPU, CPU and RAM. May as well have some additional storage and I/O, improve the ergonomics with a full size board and mouse. Actually lets make the screen bigger as well.
God danm it... :p

On a serious note, what about Thunderbolt? I thought people went on about it being the one because it was basically PCI-E?
Supposedly patent encumbered to the point that you can only buy silicon from Intel, and for things like this the lane binding is broken so you would only get a x1 PCIe socket (I think if it worked you would only get x4).
OTOH, in theory you could probably do that as an alternative transport over a USB C connector.
