I'm just about to pack up the Raven and return it to EB! Not because of the shitty initial Banshee results but because I don't think Quantum3d is capable of supporting this card and the games. After looking through guillemot's web site there is discussion forums, driver updates, and seemingly genuine concern.
At Q3d's website their is advertising! and that's it! A response to my E-mail about this to Q3d got this reply: "This should be corrected soon."
Hey, you clowns!, The card is on the shelf now! What the hell have you been doing for the past six months, adding stupid graphics to your Raven advertisement?!

Chip, what do you think, return the Ravens? I think guillemot has the best support and I think Diamond will also.

I'm sure the Banshee troubles will be fixed but it seems that they may get incorporated into the Raven 6 months later due to Q3d's lack of support and their 3DFXish silence.

BTW what do you guys think would happen if I used guillemot's driver update and it updated my Banshee BIOS? Would it turn the Raven into a Phoenix? If it screwed it up could it be recovered?
