    Very good product, lousy start logo

    It does the job and well, everything is well referenced, well laid out, the M.2 slots are top notch, and my SSD is on the new generation 11 compatible fast connector. I'm not sure how much I'd like to see in the future, but I'm sure it's a good idea to have a new logo on the card. But no, it's the crappy logo...
