How about G-Rex? Does it have a video slot?

I'm thinking of buying one for myself :-) (for about $175 or 150 Euro for used one). Is it worth the money? Or in other words - if you were in my shoes would you buy G-Rex?
Or rather the Mediator? :-?

The G-Rex 4000D is actually the cheapest busboard I can get today. I don't know what's the price of Prometheus but it's sure cheaper than Mediator 4000Di. The G-Rex however is a used unit but it seems to be a minor drawback since I'll get a 6 month warranty along with it.

So... is it worth that 150 Euro? That's 25 Euro less than a new Mediator...

The price I couldn't justify was for a Cyberstorm accelerator which is required to use a G-Rex 4000. You need either the MK III or PPC version both of which cost quite a bit more than 150 Euro just by themselves.

I agree with you, buying both Cyberstorm PPC and G-Rex is very expensive indeed, but try to put yourself in my shoes. I have to upgrade anyway (A3640 inside...), so what are my options? Cyberstorm MkIII is almost as deer as the PPC version and going for half-the-price option called WarpEngine 040/40 is rather pointless, don't you think?
