The TSENG 4000 ISA card is total win!. That was my first ‘accelerated’ graphics card, for a 486DX-25 system I had.
It even tolerated the ISA bus running at up to 16 mhz (2x) 🙂

I am looking forward to native based PCIe SSDs, but this ASUS RAIDR is just waste of money.
OCZ Z-Drive R5 is the product i looking for, only i properly don’t think i would like the price of it.
But is the way i think SSDs should go.

Do you know if the potential frame rating fix for AMD cards will affect the 6900 series? I’ve had 2 6970s forever and there’s only maybe 1-2 games where I actually even bother enabling the second one, because it usually doesn’t make the experience any better.
I could see them not bothering to support an older generation of cards, but at the same time it seems crossfire would be something that is similar between the two generations.
I believe they eventually
I believe they eventually will. This first driver was for 7000 series cards on Win 8, but it was very much Alpha.
