Features & Benefits

 Consistent Interface Across All PCI Express Notebooks
MXM notebook designs can be configured with multiple graphics modules. This allows manufacturers to leverage a single system to address multiple market segments spanning entry to high performance.

 Low-Cost Edge Connector Designed with Industry-Leading Manufacturers
The MXM edge connector is the result of an extensive collaborative design effort with the industry's leading notebook manufacturers. This collaboration has produced a robust, single-connector solution that handles all display and PCI Express signals.

 Single Connector Handles All Display and PCI Express Signals
In addition to 16-lane PCI Express, the MXM connector simultaneously handles all electrical signaling for LVDS, VGA, SDTV, HDTV, and two independent DVI outputs. One simple insertion with one connector means easy assembly at the lowest cost.

 Support for Multiple GPU and Video Memory Vendors
MXM was designed from the beginning to support all graphics vendors. This creates a competitive environment for all hardware manufacturers by enabling multiple sources for GPU and graphics memory on any MXM notebook system.

 Compatible with Integrated Graphics
MXM is fully compatible with graphics integrated into the system chipset. An MXM notebook with integrated graphics can be easily upgraded at assembly with higher performance, discrete graphics on-board an MXM module.

 NVIDIA GeForce 6 Go Series Reference Designs
NVIDIA has released reference MXM design files for the upcoming GeForce 6 Go series of notebook GPUs to MXM partners. This additional commitment to support MXM notebook partners will dramatically accelerate time-to-market and reduce engineering costs for MXM notebooks with GeForce 6 Go Series GPUs.
