    Instead of regular PCI if you can order this in PCI-E x16 ??? I also wonder if you can order it with a powerful enough PSU ??? Already hitting the past the bus limit of express card, but still would be interesting like the ViDock. God Bless :)

    Your bandwidth would be far too limited, even if it was PCI-e x16. Graphics information takes so much bandwidth (especially in modern graphics cards) that a single PCI-e x16 would severely bottleneck more than two graphics cards.
