It's actually really good. I am not sure what the performance difference is, but i took my decent laptop with a 980ti on one of those 1x expansion slots from banggood. Took out the wifi card in the laptop, put in the cable, dragged the cable out via the dvd drive slot that's never used. So damn smooth. Maxed... well. All the games I liked without issue. Only problem is with loading in new areas, because the texture loading is bottlenecked pretty heavily. That, and the cables I used were unshielded, leading to a crash like.. every four days? Worth it.

13:38 Linus explaining PCMCIA as “an old laptop expansion standard” (from ye olden times) made me feel old. In my day, if you wanted to Napster, you needed a 3COM 10Base-T expresscard in your ThinkPad and a dongle to plug in your network cable. That’s how we did it, you whippersnappers.

LOL same! I thought: Ok should I feel old because I know what he's holding? the "fun" of Windows 9x(as in named after just about year of the 90s). Or that I'm thinking: he's going to need an adapter...and why is he making this convoluted daisy chain?

PCMCIA (later called PC Card) is *older* than ExpressCard. The first PC Card, a memory card, came out in 1992-well before Napster-and communicated via 16-bit ISA bus. Later revisions of the standard allowed for peripherals to hook in via 32-bit PCI bus. ExpressCard arrived a decade later, making use of a single PCI Express lane. #getoffmylawn

The riser pin mapping: usb 3.0 tx+/- signals and rx +/- signals (they’re differential pairs) are mapped to the PCIe transmit and receive pairs. The USB 2.0 D+/- pins are the PCIe reference clock, PERST# (the reset signal) uses the VBUS pin, and then ground is ground. The other pins on the x1 connector aren’t necessary for operation (i2c/smbus/jtag) and the little plug for the motherboard shorts the presence detect pins for x1.
