Expresscard to external video card solution

Last Seen For: $292.95

For many years, running impressive graphics and playing games that are demanding on a video card have been daunting tasks to perform with a laptop... until now.  The main problem is that video cards in laptops typically carry less video memory and a lighter processor, and are also nearly impossible to switch out or upgrade.  Most high end graphics cards create a lot of heat, making them logistically improbable to have installed in something as heat intensive as a laptop. 

The Vidock is an external solution that connects to your laptop's expresscard slot and offers an external enclosure to install your choice of high powered PCI Express video cards.  You get the performance of a desktop graphics card on your laptop's expresscard slot, with the convenience of portability and heat dissapation.

The Beauty of Multiple Monitors

Running multiple monitors is a must if you are in any profession that requires you to sit at a computer for even a fraction of the day.  Having another monitor to assist in cross referencing, running multiple operations, or to play games is such a lifestyle improvement for such a small cost.  Most people unfortunately don't do it because they feel like it would be a technical difficulty, but there are so many solutions available today at such a low price and that are designed for the typical amateur user.

PCMCIA (PC Cardbus) Alternative

If you are running an older laptop with a PCMCIA slot and just need to add another monitor without having to spend a lot, the same company that makes the ViDock also makes a light weight solution for PCMCIA (aka PC Cardbus) called VTBook.  This solution doesn't let you choose which high powered video card to use with it, it has a light weight video card installed inside, and is really ideal for business applications, students, and video watching.
