The CL 2MX DDR is clocked at 286Mhz - I bought it thinking wow DDR like a
lot of people I guess then you find out it's a 64 bit board - a 128 bit with
SDR is better for sure, it's pure marketing - and it got me. All that said
though it is a stable,cheap,clockable card with good but not brill
performance.
