- gshulegaard 11y agoWhich requires a custom connector/port. AMD aims to create a standard. From the article: > On the other hand, AMD has tried to standardise the external GPU before—and failed miserably. In 2008 AMD launched its XGH external graphics standard, which essentially just took the pins from PCIe slot and passed them through to an external connector (a solution copied by Alienware for its Graphics Amplifier). This was a smart idea at the time, particularly as USB 2.0 and ExpressCard didn't offer anywhere near the amount of bandwidth required for a high-end GPU. Unfortunately, very few laptop manufacturers used XGH, with Fujitsu Siemens' Graphics Booster being one of the rare commercial examples.
