    Hi, are there any way to buy the Mobility HD3870 from ocz alone? I heard that it is plain MXM-III and doesn't require HE connector like the cards used by Eurocom. How correct are my informations?

    the cards are identical in hardware, it's just the bios that it changes. there's already an how to flash and change the bios here in the forum (don't remember who wrote)

    all of the newest cards seem to be locked to the master or slave and they have not been able to be cross flashed. this has been recently confirmed by many people that have tried including a couple here on the forum
