external ram via usb-c and a desktop sized pcie slot on the back of a laptop.  For crazy people who think a 21x is not good enough.

but don't want a desktop.  eee

No such animal afaik.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Not possible and never going to happen.

 

How would the PCI-e slot on the back of the laptop work? Where would you stick the graphics card into?

Why do this when laptops already do have Thunderbolt ports for external graphics cards?

its just as crazy as when asus built a liquid cooler for a laptop  

Lots more I’d say.  The pcie slot doesn’t make zero sense.  You can get 4 lane pcie out of an m.2 port.  The thunderbolt ram thing is just strange though.  Thunderbolt sort of does 4lane pcie but there’s a lot of latency because of the cable.

You essentially want modular laptop. Not the direction we are going, but hey, keep on dreaming.

 

External RAM is pointless. It would be super-slow.
