Alienware graphics amp

[Jasontechmaster]

If i get the new alienware graphics amp will it work with other computers besides the alienware 13?

It uses some "Alienware Graphics Amplifier to Notebook Port" so I think it cant be used for other pcs.

No, the connector is propriety. You could however do a DiY eGPU through either expresscard, mpcie or even better through thunderbolt.

so i have to modify the amp or build one myself?

Alienware amp is propriety meaning it will NOT work on any other computer unless it is using the same propriety connector.

 

In other words it is like trying to install an AMD cpu in an Intel motherboard.

 

If you are interested on the external graphics, you should research DiY eGPU
