Are BFG cards any good?

I like mine... it doesn't overclock as well as some other 6800GT's but it's 6 months old. So some people buying them now might be getting slightly better RAM or better cores that overclock farther.

The only complaint I have about it is the crappy cooling for the RAM... there's rubber pads stuck to the heatsink to make contact with the RAM chips. Rubber isn't exactly the best heatsink...

I love my BFG 6800GT. Got it in November, put a Arctic Cooler NV silencer 5 on it, and overclocked it to 420/1100 no probs. Highest I have gone stable was 432/1140 but I stopped there not due to any artifacts but because it was getting late :)

I don't have one but they are suppose to be great cards esspecially if you don't do any OCing or modding as they have a REAL life time warrenty and they come factory OCed to boot.
