AMD’s XGP eXternal Graphics Platform
Sunday, June 8th, 2008A little over 1.5 years ago I wrote about Asus launching an external graphics card for laptop consumers. Remotely locating the hot and power hungry GPU to a desktop located platform would bring laptops up to speed with desktops in the one department they are seriously lacking. Current performance GPUs easily chew through 75 to 125 watts which is easily double the power consumption of your average laptop computer. AMD is hoping to tap into the mobile market with an external graphics card with a custom graphical port permitting consumers to render images on both the internal laptop screen or up to 4 external displays.
