Why would they not be?  Only CL cards have problems with them.  I test
a fair bit of hardware and only CL has issues.

It's the responsibility of the third party board manufacturer to make
sure their cards are compatible with the leading chipset manufacturer
and not the other way around - unless you're CL of course.

It's costing 'em though and it'll cost 'em more before it's over.
