First off, apologies if breaking any rules.. Couldnt find a post witb my exact situation.
The Quadro P3000 MXM Type B card in my laptop has bit the dust after years of service (2018 model). It is still a very powerful laptop (highly spec'd Precision 7720, 64GB DDR4, good SSDs, 4K screen, etc). Thinking of giving it to my kids who are into gaming...but need to replace the card first.
What's the best gaming MXM Type B card out there (or close)? I have up to 180-watts available to the GPU, so power shouldn't be a problem. PCI 3.0 x 16 lanes.
These typically came with Quadro cards so I'm debating the P5000 because I know it will work. But are those good for gaming? I know they are typically used for workstation and CAD use?
Would a GTX orRTX card be better? If so, which one, and are all Type B cards compatible?
I'm pretty tech savy and can burn firmware, etc. Just don't have much experience playing with MXM cards and Google isnt much help today...
