Oh ok, I didn't see that line and I didn't even know that was possible lol can I do that via Nando’s Setup 1.10b5 ? or is it done in another way? @Tech Inferno Fan thanks for the correction, now I know it can be 2.0

@Tech Inferno Fan I was looking (and anticipating) at *replies to my post and saw your edit, I used AIDA64 to check my System Info and it says the mPCIe that I have is 1.0... Device Properties Device Description: Broadcom BCM4313GN 802.11b/g/n 1x1 Wireless Network Adapter Bus Type: PCI Express 1.0 x1 Bus / Device / Function: 2 / 0 / 0 I'm a bit confused - - - Updated - - - Yes, it's still the same laptop (Samsung RF511 S05AE) with the 2670QM CPU. If that's true then I'm good to go GTX 780 Ti

so the port that is available in my laptop is <strike>PCIe 1.0</strike> PCIe 2.0 (it's currently being used by my WiFi card, but I'll remove that to use the PE4L connector), will I be able to use a GTX 780 or a Titan with it? What's the best card that I can use with it? You've been really informative and helpful angerthosenear, thank you very much for your help so far! I really appreciate it

Thank you very much for that reply, I feel more confident about getting a GTX 680 card, still have to look for one with 3-4GB VRAM in it, but if there's a better card that has noticeable performance and reasonable price, than I might think about it some more. Last question: Can I really utilize the card's performance if I go Titan or 780Ti? You said MikjoA uses a Titan with his setup, was he able to utilize the Titan? I've been reading other posts (this and you posted here too lol) and daver160 said using a Titan for eGPU is not a good idea.. Sorry for asking too much questions, but since I'm really new into eGPU setups, I want to be sure when I buy a graphics card because these upgrades are really expensive, and I don't want to fail on first try. Decisions, decisions...

Hi, I'm interested in giving my old gaming laptop a boost by getting a better GPU since I have a good enough system (IMO), I heard a GTX 580 does wonders for both 3D Rendering and Gaming, I'm not into gaming that much but I want to work on 3D on this system: Laptop: Samsung RF511-S05AE Processor: Core i7 2670QM @ 2.2 Ghz Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT540M (Optimus) Intel HD3000 I read here (http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/2894-%5Bguide%[email protected]) that I can use the mini PCIe slot (currently has WiFi card in it), and I am ready to purchase PE4L-PM060A to make the upgrade possible. So, my question is, can I use this graphics card? Asus GTX 580 DirectCU II (ENGTX580 DCII/2DIS/1536MD5 - Graphics Cards - ASUS) or any GeForce GTX680 or GTX690 (will have to look for a specific card with high VRAM)? What's the best GeForce card can I use given my setup? ...and can I use a PSU with it instead of an Adapter? Because I don't know if the Power Adapters are enough (or is it? I don't know if it can reach 250W requirement of the said card). Any useful insight to this is much appreciated! Edit: I didn't know if there's any card with a high enough VRAM, need it for 3D Rendering
