pci xpress for a laptop? can i buy one?

[psykik]

looking for a gaming laptop right now or in one month.

is pci xpress to be released in laptops soon?

thanks

 

[psykik]

is this a silly question?

I wouldn't sweat it, the only real uses for PCI-E in a laptop right now are gigabit ethernet or to upgrade the graphics, and there isn't even a set standard for that.

Well, you should be able to get that around beginning of next year.

nvidia has mxm or something like that and ati has their own laptop pci-e connect i forget what its called

anandtech just had an article about dells new xps with the r420(x800) core http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=2171

Actually I think sagar plans to release pci express in the beggining of next month. BTW I would wait until whenever this happens b/c it means upgradable graphics for your lappy. Might want to check around notebookforum.com

notebookforum.com is really good, you should definitely check it out.

Up gradeable graphics will be a nice thing but u will pay out the back side for it when it first comes out and there are always problems with first and second runs of them. Just look at cars.
