1- Fujitsu Lifebook AH532/G21, Intel core i7-3612QM, 6GB RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, Intel HD graphics, Nvidia Geforce GT 620M, EVGA GTX660.
i have similar setup with windows 8.1. Do i need to do the setup program to make optimis 1.2 work or is it just plug, install drivers and play ?

Hi buddy!
1. Expresscard speed: The south bridge of your laptop decides the buss speed of your system, x1 @GEN1 (2.5Gb/s) or x1 @GEN2 (5Gb/s). In your case GEN2.
2. What set to buy: It all comes down to which GPU you are planing to use. If the GPU has lower TDP than 220W, then buy the complete package. If you are going for a card with higher consumption, go for the 'w/o power supply' order, since you'll need ATX power.
3. It seems like WIN8.1 is easier to use with the eGPU setup due to better handling of address space (PCI memory allocation).
Using Nvidia GTX660 can you make a list for me what to buy and where they are cheapest ?
I prefer full ready solution

Got it working without Setup 1.30 software but Opitimus dont work on internal LCD, on external it works and scores nice in 3D Mark 2011 (5500 points).
Installed hardware (with SW1 on "3" because "1" didnt work) and in windows 8.1 it first showed conflict with GT620M. Then I disabled GT620M on device manager, then reboot and GTX660 works fine. Then i engaged GT620M again and no conflicts anymore. Using latest Geforce official drivers. I dedicated PhysX to GT620M.
My laptop has secure boot so setup 1.30 wont work without tuning it.....
