USB3 card for Mobo (W7 drivers ??)
Hi there
I've been so amazed with the USB3 performance on my Laptop that I really would like to get a USB3 card for a desktop running Windows 7.
So questions for people running USB3 devices on Windows 7 (not Windows 8).
The Mobo itself doesn't have native USB3 connection so I'd have to have an expansion card for this. A 2 slot USB3 card would be just fine.
Two questions though
1) Is USB3 performance via an expansion card good
2) are there Windows 7 drivers for USB3.
The laptop is running Windows 8 and can say the USB3 performance is stunning with USB3 external HDD's --significant (and I mean SIGNIFICANT) improvement over USB2 or even the same USB3 disk plugged into a USB2 port.
Cheers
