Are there any decent thunderbolt pcie enclosures that don't cost an arm and a leg?

I'm not talking about a GPU enclosure, I just need something for a lower powered capture card to work with my laptop on the go. This device can easily be powered by thunderbolt 3 alone so no extra psu is needed.

What do you need the capture card for? IF you just want to record your screen, there's OBS and there's no need for a capture card

To record vintage consoles for archival purposes on the go.

Get a USB capture device. No need for pci-e based one.

Pretty much every usb capture device doesn't work with the analog systems I'm capturing. I've spent a while picking this device and it's pcie only.
