    imo the turbos are a waste of time. had problems with the 1gb & 2gb cards. just ripped the 2gb out of my m860tu. actually i think its slightly quicker now the card is gone.
    i think these cards are gimmicks and dont really do much. how much time really does anyone save with one of these cards. 5 or 10 seconds loading time.

    Invest in more RAM instead. If you already have 4GB's of RAM, then you should know you are fine already ;)

    that is being optimistic. I'd say 2-4 seconds, max. Where are the benchmarks intel?
