25hz with my Egpu?

I have a 9070xt connect to the minisforum deg2 along with my Ally X.

On my 4k monitor( that can reach up to 120hz) im getting 25hz.

Why?

Is it because im connected via tb4?

Is there a fix?

I have the MINISFORUM DEG2 OCulink eGPU Dock (sorry, it just copied the font sized, lol).

Paired with a 9070xt GPU.

Connected to my Ally X via tb5.

I usually just plug the tb5 to the Ally X on or off and usually connects with no issue(other than some flashing for a moment)

The way I go about disconnecting safely, is safe eject the "TB5 dock" as it appears, then proceed to turn off the dock itself, and then the display switches back to the AllyX with some issue at times (like some applications being a bit unresponsive, needing a reset of the application itself), but generally no major issues that need a system restart(most of the time).

I sometimes turn off my Ally X first, then the dock second. Then I unplug it, thinking it be even "safer" but the Ally's display will never turn on again(in handheld mode). Until i hold the power button until it restarts to default settings.( I haven't tried to reconnect to the dock and see if it'll display through there).

Those have been my experiences. Likely doing some dumb stuff........

What is the proper way to disconnect these devices safely to ensure nothing gets damaged(or explode).

Or am i overthinking it, and i can just yoink the cable out whenever i want?
