    The only one I can find for sale is here
    MXM 3.0 to PCI-Express Carrier board - Type 1.1 | Zentrica
    They sell 2 versions, one with an LVDS output, and one with a DVI output in its place.
    Unfortunately, the minimum order is 10, which comes to over 4000 USD.
    Does anyone know of anywhere else to get a carrier board for MXM 3.0 cards like this one?

    I want this for testing MXM cards and making them easier to mess with/fix ove all, but I'm really interested in using this to benchmark MXM cards, as an apples to apples comparison against desktops cards using the same CPU and whatnot.
