Is frescologic good or bad? I have a no name chinese card that cost twice as much (and had to wait a month for it). It uses a VIA chip and has worked like a champ for the last two years. It has 4 ports though.

I guess they could be OK, and orico is just dumping them because only very old computers like mine don't have built in usb 3 ports.

edit: Oh yeah does fresco support uasp protocol? I have another cheap two port card which doesn't (in my junk box).
