Then, you need to buy an external PSU to actually power the card, which combined with the card itself makes a mess of wires and a huge bulk sitting on your desk. That’s like buying a Ferrari and only driving it in downtown traffic. First of all, you are running a expensive graphics card at 1/16 or 1/8 the bandwidth. I was considering this, but it is just really unpractical. There are too many problems with this personally.

That said, it really does take the portability factor of your notebook down to about zero. There are many variables on which this process is heavily dependent, but with the right amount of tweaking, some great laptop gaming performance can be had. While the card does take a performance hit when connected to his laptop in this way, he claims that his graphics performance has increased ten-fold, which isn’t too shabby. Using an Express card to PCIe adapter, he added an external Nvidia GTX580 to his system, and he couldn’t be more pleased with the results. His Vaio Z128GG had an Nvidia GT330M graphics card onboard, which is decent but nothing to write home about. recently put together an external video card for his notebook, with fantastic results. That is, unless you have an empty Express card slot and the right chipset. If you’re not willing to shell out for a reasonably powerful laptop it seems that there’s not a ton that can be done to boost your gaming performance.
