Why MXM On The Desktop?
While most desktop computers have the luxury of space to accept various expansion cards, including graphics cards in all sorts of sizes, they are also unfortunately rather power hungry (or even power-inefficient for some models) and more often than not, come with coolers that spoil the silent computing movement these days. MSI's Geminium-Go attempts to overcome these issues by adopting MXM graphics modules for the desktop space
The MSI Geminium-Go that was shipped to us had dual GeForce Go 6600 MXM modules with 256MB of frame buffer each. Indeed when we put it through its paces, we found that Geminium-Go and the MXM modules were only barely warm to the touch whereas a standard single GeForce 6600 graphics card was hot to the touch. Clearly, our observation was in-line with the all the reasons why many would be rooting for such a product to be released in retail.
