Just an idea, but I often find myself looking for user reviews on other web sites for mysterybyte gear, why not add user reviews to each pice of hardware?

I don't trust most user reviews since the people tend to not have much experience with alternatives. It's either "This product worked awesomely A++++++++" or "I had a hard time installing this IT WAS TERRIBLE!!! -3/10!!!".

I know that's not the case with everyone here but I still don't put much value on them. =\

Thanks for the e-props but I don't get my hands on enough new tech to know how things rate when compared to others so I'd probably be like one of those people I complained about above. :)

I believe the MB TechShop (http://www.mysterybyte.com/index.htm?co ... demain.htm) used to have reviews written by MB employees in the past but lately they've just been reposting reviews from bigger sites... not at that I blame them or anything.

My reviews of video cards would be slightly ATi biased haha!

Mach32 VLB (oh boy 1994!)
Xpert@Play98 + AIW (woooh!)
Voodoo 1
Rage Pro somethingorother
Voodoo 2
Radeon 7500 PCI
Radeon 9700
Radeon 9600SE (SFF AGP)
Radeon X800XL
Radeon X1650 Pro (backup haha)
Radeon X1800XL
Radeon X1900XT
Radeon 2900XT
Radeon HD3870
Radeon HD4870

Somewhere in there is an NV card, can't remember though. I guess the Voodoo cards would be considered NV now hah!
