there is some product that uses the PCI-E slot, similar to the Asus XG Stations...but, the performance are not worthed for money...as PCI-E slots oftens comes with only 1x or maybe 4x...where most med end GPU uses 16x PCI-E interface...but, PCI-E slots are also can be maxed out to 8GB/z data bandwidth, so it's not really bad compare to intel GMA 950 for example..it's juz it is not value for money for a external GPU like Asus XG station, where with that money u can buy an Ati HD 4670 or more powerful cards...
