New interesting development in GPU's

[Hephaistion]

"HKEPC reviews the desktop version of Nvidia's MXM which is the equivalent to an upgradable GPU. Any go to the website to know what I'm talking of. Nvidia does a fine job here. The Microstar Geminium allows two Geforce 6600GO to run on a desktop. Although a SLI motherboard was employed, I don't know if you can need a SLI motherboard to make it work. Interestingly the Geminium comes on top of the comparision with two Geforce 6600. Could that be the poor man's SLI? Can someone translate it for me?"

Que? Well, I'm not sure if thinquirer is to be trusted; especially because the author is asking for a translation.

It's about time these greedy bastards finally made their graphics cards more upgradeable. As a matter of fact, I was gonna email Nvidia awhile back and ask them why they don't make their cards more like motherboards with upgradeable memory and GPUs. They stole the idea straight out of my mind!

Whoa whoa whoa hold on thar tiger. This is just a poor translation, MXM gfx cards have been out for a few months. MXM cards are just smaller grachics cards that are made for laptops. They aren't any more "upgradeable" than any other AGP or PCI-E card, you can't add more memory or switch out the GPU. All that this article does is show off how some company managed to use notebook video cards on a desktop mobo.
