I can see how this would help with stability thru benchmarks by stabilizing the pcie bus. Even with one cooky card that pulls hard from the pcie during trolls lair. "Stability" being the operative word.

Look towards the effect of pcie mhz on cpu overclocks. Again, system "Stability". Makes sense. Pricing is a bit retarded tho.

Dosn't this do what the extra 4 pin pcie power plug does on the R3? I heard that only 75 of them were made and new stock isn't just around the corner.

It can be used on any board. but guaranteed to work on EVGA boards

all in all its kinda a lil buffer for any board that does not have a supplemental pcie power.


lots of boards have had supplemental power... Remember EVGA NF41? 680I had it....

alot of boards have had it on and off for a long time...

we just made it so you dont need to replace the board. just a quick fix to allow you to use any board and still have the benefit of the supplemental power.

More will be available in January

Honda I will get back to you soon man
