Hi all

Does anyone know where I can get a decent, but not too expensive, external graphics card? Say under 1500. Is this even possible? :confused:

I have a laptop I want to play games on and don't want to fork out for an entire new PC.

Please let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks in advance
Paul

Uses an Express card slot, although article mentions USB 2.0 as well.

The XG Station is the world's first docking station to provide a standard PCI Express slot for additional graphics computing power on notebook computers with Express Card slot, delivering VISTA Premium performance. The device also conveniently accommodates future graphics technology such as, HDCP and HDMI upgrades possibility. Lab experiments on a notebook based on Intel 945GM graphics connected to the XG station with a ASUS EN7900GS graphics card showed an astounding 9 times faster acceleration

Thanks for the input will look into it.
 
Its been released but is not on sale yet. Google for the XG Station or check the Wiki on it.
