Well .. in my A3000 I have a WarpEngine 040 @40mhz.
I haven't had one bit of trouble with it and it has
a very fast SCSI and 64 megs 72 pin simms.
(IMHO .. a very good reliable card)

In my A2000 I have a GVP TekMagic 060 @ 50mhz.
The only problem I've had with it is with OS 3.9
and the 'WarmBoot problem' that so many people have
with OS 3.9. So I can't really fault the GVP card for
that. It has a good SCSI and 128 megs 72 pin simms.
(also IMHO .. a very good reliable card)

With all the talk about the CSPPC cards and the
Blizzard, there always seems to be a thread on A.org
asking where to get them repaired.
I personally don't think I want one.

To be fair there are a number of contributing factors to this. These cards are both more more sophisticated and at the same time more delicate than many others. They also tend to get used in systems with inadequate cooling, heavy expansion, current load problems etc. It's a bad combination :-(
