MSI plans to showcase its upcoming Graphics Upgrade Solution (GUS) at Computex next week, an externally-housed ATI Radeon HD 5670 1 GB card that connects to a notebook's ExpressCard slot. MSI's solution is one of many external options in the works--both Gigabyte and Shuttle recently displayed their offerings at CeBit back in March. As seen at the show, Gigabyte has chosen the docking station approach whereas Shuttle's I-Power GTX mini will use a special GTX connector.

As it stands, the device can't support cards more advanced than the Radeon HD 5670, as the GUS has a maximum power draw of 84 watts and does not have a 6-pin power adapter.

wouldn't that be neat? A single hard-core graphics card in an external enclosure that you could move from PC to PC as you needed it? We're obviously not there yet, but it's sure be neat, especially if you could SLI several together.

Then again, I've always wanted to see plug-n-play CPUs, too... just plug a second one into your computer to double it's power. Keep plugging em in as you can afford to buy more. :)
