PE4C V3.0 has the same soldered cabling as PE4L 2.1b. They are both rated as PCIe 3.0 8Gbps compliant. However, notebooks currently have only PCIe 2.0 5Gbps mPCIe or expresscard slots limiting their performance.

You'd only be running PCIe 3.0 8GBps if attaching a video card to a desktop system using the x1 slot adapter (PE4C-HP060A 3.0).

Thanks Tech Inferno Fan, I've just read your #104 post. Now I understand the reason why.

On the site they said

PE4C V3.0 is PCIe 1-Lane 8.0Gbps bandwidth limit passive adapter in compliance with Expresscard 3.0 specification.

But in the Installation Guide (pdf file), they said

PE4C V3.0 is PCIe 1-Lane 5.0Gbps bandwidth limit passive adapter in compliance with Expresscard 2.0 specification.

So which is correct?

Banggood is the main distribution point for overseas customers: EXP GDC Beast Laptop External Independent Video Card Dock - US$49.99

However, in our country, we can buy directly taobao goods via shipping service with a low cost fee as well

Tech Inferno Fan and jacobsson, would you please help me?

I followed the guidelines from jacobsson in post #1, clicking yoybuy link. I saw the original url in taobao and realized that cloudhero store is the only main source of these EXP GDC devices.

I am asking this because I want to share the method of buying this device with good price to all guys on my forum. We can buy an EXP GDC BEAST kit including power supply with a good price of around $60 via taobao shipping service in my country.

But there is a guy who is selling it with a very high price, more than 2-3 times higher but with poor support. He slandered me that I was the bad guy, purchasing the unoriginal and scamming people. I was trying to make it very clear and in details about the purchase procedure. But the guy employed tricks, clone many accounts to slander me and cheat everyone with his tricks, and his dirty words as those of a bad vendor.

However, to us your techinferno is of good credibility, being an important source to learn and improve knowledge.

Would you please help me with this, as this is of great significance.

Can you confirm on the post #1 that the cloudhero store on http://expgdc.taobao.com/ is the main official.

I really appreciate it.
