ViDock 2?

by aro993s - 9/4/09 7:47 AM

Hey Guys! I'm a gamer on a budget and I have a couple year old laptop. It's not terrible yet...I have dual core and enough memory...but the integrated graphics are terrible. I was surfing around trying to find ANY alternative to just buying a whole new machine and I came across this:

ViDock 2: http://www.villagetronic.com/vidock2/index.html

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Seems like I could address my issue for around $360...

Thanks for your help!

Hummmm... Now that I'm doing a little research, I'm not sure if I do or not. I'm pretty sure that the slot I have is an ExpressCard slot...but how can I tell if it's 2.0 or not?

That's the series, not the model.

Have that company verify it works with this.

I really took a chance on this product, new, never heard of the company, giving my credit card to a basic unknown. The outcome was excellent. Instant improvement, speeds up your existing games and pushes you to try some hardcore games on it as well(bioshock,fear, supreme comm, etc)
For themoney you get a decent graphix card and a way to put multiple monitors on your laptop, I am still playing around with it, tech support has been great answering every newb question I have giving them .
I think they want people to play around with these devices and take them to different avenues .........buy it.
