Well XLR8 was the highest rate card by the Macgurus web site and XLR8yourmac.com web site. Which despite the name isn't wasn't connected to XLR8 company. I also just went to the xlr8yourmac.com web site and looked up user reports on CPU cards. I found 1298 reports/ reviews of the XLR8 cards! I think that is a pretty good showing for one out of 15 brands listed. Amazing to me that there have been that many over the years. Many were re-branded private brands I'm guessing.How many were you hoping for ;-) Lets hope Newer tech gets back on their feet and provides the market with top end cards again. Otherwise it's the Sonnet cards which either can't be adjusted/ over clocked or already are when you buy them. I'm not really knocking them they are good products for the intended market.( people who have no interest in doing any adjustments for speed etc) Powerlogix are also a good product but never seemed to have quite the top end quality nor while adjustable not as fine tuneable as XLR8 . They will be missed. Will S -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
