aight so i just got my 8gig class 6 card from newegg and i wanted to see how much faster it was going to be over my stock 1gig card from the touch pro....

well IT ISNT FASTER! lol what a waste... well atleast i got more space here are the benches... keep in mind i had to format these cards to ntfs so i can run the benchmark and they are connected to my pc through a usb memory card reader

here is the stock card

and here is the 8gb class 6 from newegg for 16.99

16.99 for 8gig is hardly a waste.

I spent 23 bucks for 4 gigs at circuitcity lol. I hate waiting.

Its not that much slower really.

yea well i thought the stock card would be a crappy card or something so i thought buying a class 6 would be a huge upgrade

oh well atleast i have more space... (not that ill ever use over 1 gig anyways)

i dont think the processor can utilize the speed anyway can it

what brand was the 8gb? I have heard of problems with many cards and planned to go sandisk myself, though if there isnt really much difference with classes....i will save money for a lower class

do you suppose it could be like car audio and some companies are exagerating the class speeds?

i dont know about the company exagerating the class speed but the brand is transcend....now that i think about it that may be my problem! lol

can anyone with a different brand memory card run the benchmark and post your results?

I ordered a Transcend 8gb Microsdhc Class 6 from newegg last week, received the order on monday and immediately uploaded Zac and Miri make a porno. The movie was fine so I then decided to upload unto the card Lord of the Ring. The movie was very slow but the audio sounded fine. I messed around with some TCMP settings like the AV+- but the video was too slow. Was it the card or was it the video file?

p.s. the video file was a divx and it was 800mb. 720X480.

if i trolled this topic, my bads!

try 320x240 it will play way better.... and as far as the cad read speed, i dont think that the phones processer can read that fast try using the same test to a card reader and see if that makes a difference
