If anyone wants to try this with a (mini) PC without an OCuLink port, but with a spare M.2 slot, you can try looking for an adapter like a "F4C". This converts an M.2 slot, which is really a PCIe x4 slot, into an OCuLink port.
(I believe the BK7, F9G, and F4C are all made by the manufacturer "ADT". But you'll find a lot if listings on places like Amazon and AliExpress just list the model name. So just search for those.)
In reality, study after study shows that consumers in the receiving country bear most of the cost. According to Amiti et al. (2020) and Fajgelbaum et al. (2020), U.S. consumers absorbed nearly 100% of the cost of the tariffs imposed during the U.S.-China trade war under Trump's first administration. Feng, Han, and Li (2023) found U.S. importers bore 93% of U.S.-imposed tariffs. The numbers are remarkably consistent across time and geography: under normal conditions, consumers absorb between 60% and 90% of the cost. That's the economic consensus, not a debate.
Happy to list more studies if you're actually curious:

I used a Thunderbolt eGPU with my legion go and a 4070 to super for a long time. It did ok, but I'm pretty sure it limited the power of the card due to bandwidth. Oculink is supposed to be faster.

Exactly like that. You'd need this minipc, that dock, and a PSU with the GPU. It mostly makes sense if you're spaced constrained or just have old parts handy that you didn't sell off.

Is the 7840hs with the 780m a decent upgrade also?

I'd go with the 780m if you want to do switch. It's a decent step up

My LG Gram with a 13th gen i7 does great with citron-emu on switch games. I have a minisforum miniPC with a 6900HX (680M) that also does great, even at 4k. Remember, emulation is far more CPU bound than GPU.
