Would an MXM mobile graphics module w/ its own PCI-Express x16 slot work for e-GPU?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

<o:p<o:pI was browsing theinternet and found a product (listed below). I wanted to get advice/feedbackregarding the possibility of using the product to connect a regular desktop GPU(using the PCI-Express x16 slot) directly to the Laptop's MXM mobile graphicsslot via this COTS module from a company called Liantec. I copied and pastedsome of their info as well as the web link showing the product. Would any ofthe variant models be possibility?

Doubtful. At best I think you would only get optimus/enduro working without BIOS mods. MXM has a lot more to it than just a x16 pci-e link. It's difficult to even get different mxm cards to work in other systems sometimes, let alone a desktop card.
