I assume that if you report that a card fails to work that that is true. That makes it a fact, e.g. my seat is red, but I'm not going to send you a picture to prove it. > replacing the cards with intels and having the problem go away is backing. > It may not be *useful*, but it is backing. Backing of the fact that there is a problem that you need to solve in a limited amount of money, yes. No backing of the fact that the problem is caused by the xl driver, e.g. if a card is not well seated you solve the problem as well by replacing the card.
