Ok so i wanted to kinda do an experimental trash to treasure type experiemental project.
idk if its even worth it tho.
ok so i have an old Dell lattitude d610
and i was thinking of adding a external gpu to it now through alot f research i have found out that this may be some what possible
with the pcmcia card slot on the computer i can use a pc card to pci expansion slot cable

these adapters are equivalent to pci-e express adapters in newer laptops except they are for older format pci basically the original pci slots before pci express
Plus i want to add 2 ddr2 ram sticks if thats even possible heard max ram was 2gb
The intel pentium m 780 Processor is the max cpu i can upgrade it too or the intel pentium 770 Processor
Plus of course upgrade the harddrive to a larger storage
Also the fastest gpus for pci bus are supposedly the zotac gt 610 and the zotac gt 630 these are also 64 bit cards but the adapter is 32 bit not sure if that will be compatibile
