I have a Dell Venue 8 Pro (Windows 8.1) tablet and I'm looking to get more performance from my flash card. This is the card I am using now: G.Skill 64GB micro SDXC model FS-TSDXC64GN-U1, and I am intrigued by the announcement of Sandisk 95 MB/S cards today - but they aren't cheap in the slightest, does anyone have any suggestions for anything similar that might cost less?

The process only works as fast as the slowest device in the chain. I would suggest you benchmark your flashcard on a reader known to be good at high speeds (so were talking usb3, esata, or firewire) and the re-benchmark it on your Dell. If the Dell cant hit the same speeds then putting in a faster card would be a waste of hard earned monies.

This card reader list might help you if you dont already have one.
