Most Critical Review

Wish I had gone another direction

SYBA USB 3.0 4-port PCI-Express x1 Controller Card, VLI VL80x Chip Model SD-PEX20133

Pros: It comes in a nice box.

Cons: The card will frequently disappear, and disconnect any devices I have plugged into it.

Overall Review: First I installed the card. I connected the molex cable. Then installed the drivers. So far, so good. Then came the test. I plugged in the hard drive dock, and started transferring a 5 gig file. The file got half way through, and stopped. It was then I noticed the drive was no longer being seen by the computer. I turned the dock off, and turned it back on. Started transferring files from another hard drive, and the same thing happened. I have been unable to keep a consistent connection. It is not worth the $6.00 plus in shipping for me to send back to Newegg, do this card will be going into the trash. I will be mindful of this the next time I look to purchase something from this manufacturer.

Everything works except...

VisionTek Radeon HD 3450 512MB GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 900231

Pros: Easy to install.

Cons: The vga port doesn't work, and that was the reason for purchasing the card. Now I have to rma the card, and will now be charged an extra $12.00 to return it.

Overall Review: I used to really love the egg, but I am going to have to rethink my purchasing habits as having to continually pay return shipping on items that are bad out of the box is unacceptable to me.
