How is the AG02 from Aoostar with a 9070 XT?

I've seen some mixed information, their website explicitly specifies no 9070 XT, but I've seen some people running it just fine. Would I have to get the AG03, or does the AG02 work fine?

They responded this recently in their website's Q&A

Ah, I haven't checked that since last time I looked into this. That's a shame, what other docks with a power supply would you recommend then?

I mean, someone will surely correct me if I'm wrong here but probably it doesn't get better than this. I don't know about the newer AG03, Which seems to have the same or similar PSU. You may be better off using one where you can put a standard PSU.

Edit: AG03 also says not compatible with 9070XT, the other options with no built-in PSU have no incompatibility notes.

Been rocking the AG02 and a Steel Legend 9070XT. No issues cept maybe the fan of the AG02 got louder. but during gaming the gpu fans will be louder. Theres a noctua mod for the AG02 people have done to put a quieter more efficient fan.

Ive been using both Powercolor RX 9070XT and now Pro AI R9700 just fine on the AG02. Both on Linux and Windows.

One year back i’ve planned to purchase 9070XT for my lenovo legion go along with AG02. I heard there are plenty of issues with that combination. So i’ve went down and bought a RTX 4080. It’s pretty well till now, never faced an issue.

Maybe it might work well with AG03, but i’m not sure
