    I’d wait a bit. Might see RTX mxm cards in the future. :p

    I've been talking to a few ebay sellers. They said they will try to get them in. I'm assuming companies like Aetina might produce at least a RTX 2060 or 1160 w/e when it comes out at least.

    We'll see. It took a very long time for pascal to finally come out in mxm 3.0b forms so i don't expect turing to also come out anytime soon.

    Those sellers were using dell pascal quadro series mxm boards as the base then adding a 1070 core to them. Dell precision no longer uses mxm based GPUs, so I very much doubt we’ll get 3.0b form factor rtx cards

    Hey I have not powered up my M15x for 6 months. Time to part it out. Anyone interested in the X rev motherboard? Other parts are 940xm, 680M GPU or perhaps just whole system. Been rock solid for years.

    Edit: board sold and hopefully the new member figures out eDP
