Trying to set up an external graphic card on ThinkPad T520?

#1 Post by delman » Mon Sep 03, 2012 7:13 pm

Hi all. Anyone with experience or recommendations on how to setup an external graphic card on a ThinkPad T520 i7-2820 QM CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50GHz (8GB RAM)??
Need to use a 3D package (Lumion) but work laptop only has Nvidia Quadro NVS 4200M graphics card (need something like an NVidia 460GTX / ATI 5850 or faster).
