Don't know about you guys in the states but this cards is a hellova lot cheaper than the prophet 4500. Finally got a review of it, thought you guys might be interested.

It really looks plain but I think it offers the same reliability and speed as the Hercules cards and since it is more cheap...!

I think that price is a steal.!!!
But I will keep waiting for the third generation.!!

So I know the 4500 is around $110 in the states but over here it's about $400, factor in the money exchange and it's about $90 more expensive over here, that appollo card is roughly $95 US, it's plain but it'd solely be a gaming card anyway http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

if I was going to buy a Kyro, definitely I would have gone with the Hercules one.! It looks better, solid and you have a well known company like Hercules backing you up.!

But yes the Apollo price is great.!

TGFT, another company has brought out a Kyro II, I say this because the Prophet 4500 was too expensive for my liking over here in NZ, about $550 NZ

For Australian prices you just have to double the american price, 1 US dollar buy pretty well 1.95 Australian dollars.....and they still overcharge us and you have to add tax.......

Hahahahaha..!!
That really sucks.!!
I guess there's a lot of pirated software running around in Australia or am I mistaken.! Are you just immune to those high prices.!!

Nope they just rely on the odd sale at the high price than many sales at a low price, serious sam was retailed at $89.95. It's bloody ridiculous.....
