MXM Modules

What are Mobile PCI Express Modules “MXM modules”?

A Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM) is an interconnect standard for GPUs in laptops and embedded computers using PCI Express. The original goal was to create a non-proprietary, industry standard socket, so users could easily upgrade the graphics processor in a laptop, without having to buy a whole new system or relying on proprietary vendor upgrades.
