I have a decent laptop - Lenovo Y510p with (2) Nvidia GT750m SLI 16gb ram and an i7 4770k processor.
With some new games releasing I would like to play them on my laptop with decent graphics so I decided to go with an external GPU route if I'm able to.
I'm trying to figure out which device i should purchase that would be compatible with my setup.
The bad part is the PCI slot is hard to access as I would have to remove the back plate of the laptop and then remove the wifi card... Although I do have an ultrabay - which looks like this.
Would using a usb to pci be a bad idea?
Also, I saw videos on how they plug the video cable into a tv... is there a way I can use my laptops screen instead?
Appreciate the help as this would probably save me some money rather than buying a whole new laptop.
