In a recent interview with X-bit labs, GM of Nvidia Rene Hass, he told that company is focusing on golden opportunity of preparing external graphics adapter for notebooks as no one is doing such thing.
"I think it is a big opportunity. We have two strategies at Nvidia: one is to put graphics everywhere; the other one is to find more ways to integrate discrete chips into the box. I think there is definitely a place forexternal graphics cards for notebooks”.
It is for user convenience that, external graphic adapter allows the user to plug in the adapter when ever it is required. Although ATI has introduced external graphic cards and port technology in 2008 but it didn’t work good for them and now no external graphic solution is available today.
Rene concluded;
"I think the pricing issue that has to be solved for something like that is the right price-point that hits the right segment. There is definitely a lot of interest in it and this is something we are keeping our eye on to be able to offer something there."
