Building a new system and wanted to get some input from people.
I have a Magewell 4 Port SDI but looking into the BMD Decklink Quad 2. Is the Quad2 pretty stable now? There's only a price difference of about $150 and moving from 4 port to 8 looks like a value with the BMD.

Thoughts?

I own 2 Quad 2's and I have no stability issues with them. Having said that SDI audio did have an issue few weeks ago, did not use SDI audio last few weeks though.
I bet if it still is a problem I can easily solve it by going back a driver version.

So it just depends if you need the extra options the Magewell cards provide.
