That seems like a gimmick...and it sends chills down my spine how much radio frequencies etc are being sent through the air to send all that data.

FYI: Got captures from a Sandy Bridge DV7-5000 which confirms it has x1 2.0 pci-e ports. I was able to switch then from 2.5GT/s (x1 1.0) to 5GT/s (x1 2.0). See updated Series-6 mobile chipset supports pci-e 2.0 (5GT/s) for screenshots. No expresscard slot on it though.

So, we would have to get a laptop that supports expresscard 2.0 to get that extra bandwidth? Would we also have to get new PE4L boards?

the concept has been done before but the problem i can see is latency(delay) seems too high

Whenever I use my Vidock, if I watch videos in a browser (Both IE and FF) then hi def videos lag. But if I disconnect the vidock and just run the laptop on batteries with its normal screen it dont lag :S

Starcraft 2 runs fine and so does playing 1080p mkv files. Its only running youtube or other vidoes in HD (And fullscreen seem to lag more)

Did you see that you can get a Galaxy GTX460-768MB for US$94-shipped.AR from tigerdirect? That's ~the same price as your GTS450. I did a quick trial buy on tigerdirect and the offer is valid.

A GTX460 offers another 50% more performance than a GTS450.The GTS450 would however be my choice if wanting a compact 12V/120W setup. Your LogicSys PSU can deliver 25W on the 12V rail, 300W total, so is certainly capable of powering a GTX460.

Can see the package contents also include a DVI-VGA adapter: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814162058
