and is my laptop compatible? (I have an adapter to connect desktop video cards to laptops)
intel core i5 480M @ 2.67GHz and 6 GB DDR3|||It depends on the version of the ViDock you have. http://www.villageinstruments.com/tiki-i…
With a 225W maximum for the ViDock 4 plus, the best video card you can put in there is the GeForce GTX 570 Anything better will require an 8-pin PCIe power connector that the ViDock can't deliver. Lesser ViDocks can only support lower wattage cards.
Note: a high end video card in a ViDock takes a major performance penalty compared to a a desktop. The ExpressCard interface only has a single 1.0 lane - i.e. PCI Express 1.0 x1 compared to the desktop's PCI Express 2.0 x16. That will give your roughly half the graphic performance in a laptop compared to the same card in a modern desktop.|||its an ATi Radeon NX series. you can only get one off an apple machine but they are the strongest. Theres no way you can connect a video card to a laptop like that. No adapter can fix the bottleneck which would be the port on the computer. If you bought something like that, you need to get your money back. video cards need a direct connection to the motherboard to work. dont go thinking you can just plug it into a USB port or something like that. You need a connection a few thousand times faster.|||Not sure how that works mate. new one on me.
