so im guessing its like taking out the express slot, and inserting the Vidock adapter into it?

Enough of poison. Do they actually work? Reviews please!

Review 1: Finally now im able to use my Vidock 4 plus with GTX 570 on my HP7600 Small Form Desktop PC using 1xPCIE to Express Card Expansion Card. Now if able to watch 3D Bluray and Play 3D games. Thou its quite expensive addons, had cash out 760 USD in total. Is it worth it? Yes it is. haha

BUT...the real requirements posted by a MALAYSIAN are BAD.
i) Maximum power limited to 225W.
ii) Only 2x 6 pins power adapter. If your graphic card uses <225W but having 8 pins port then this will not work.
iii) Maximum card length 312mm or 1 foot.
iv) Has known "Resource Allocation Problem". Some notebook won't have this issue but some will. Dell confirmed to have this issue (i am using Dell).
There are several solutions, the most easy solution is to use only 2Gb or 3Gb RAM. Having 4Gb and above may have the said problem.
v) Does not work on PCMCIA cardbus slot.
vi) May not support fancy cooling design which is bigger than the casing.
vii) Require external monitor. Unable to use notebook own LCD unless the notebook has Video In port (very rare).
viii) Performance is limited by Expresscard bandwidth of PCIe 1x. However it is still much faster than onboard VGA.
