Seperation of graphics card and motherboard

[TrapTheCreator]

This is somewhat of a theoretical question. Would it be possible to have a display that has a graphics card imbeded then with wifi or some other wireless tech attach this screen to a computer and use it like a regular monitor or would the graphics card have to be physically connected to the computer. I know the tech to do this doesn't actually exist im just wondering.

Well.. not quite that I know of. Although there was a wireless graphics card (but still attached to the mb) that connects wirelessly to a display. Review here: http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/wireless-graphics-card-kfa2-gtx-460-wdhi-review,1.html

Junkeymonkey ok so... theres this lenovo wireless touchscreen monitor it connects to a computer through wifi adhoc. So what im wandering is if it would be possible to say attach a Nvidia chip to a monitor and connect said monitor and graphics card to the computer over wifi and basically use it the same way you would a graphics card on a normal pc

no its all in the monitor part no hooking it to anything its ''all in one ''' likda like a laptop but desktop

only thing close to a gpu in a monitor would be nvidias g-stinks I mean g sync that part has a NVidia chip built in to the monitor to support that feature and why to use g -sync you have to have a monitor to support it [why is not on the card is beyond me AMD's free sync is in the card and driver]
