new egg has

XFX 8800gts 320mb for 299.99 and it includes 2 free games

they also have the

evga 8800gts 320mb for 299.99

I went with the xfx just because it has to games does that matter
 
well, I would have gone with Evga because of their lifetime warranty and 24/7 support.. but XFX has a good reputation as well, but not as good as Evga.
 
I'd guess it depends on what you plan on doing with it. It seems that the BFG cards hold a bit of a price premium on the For Sale/Trade forums. If you plan on selling the card, it might be worth getting a BFG with a lifetime warranty.

Huh? He got an XFX...don't XFX cards have a double lifetime warranty? If that's true then the XFX card might look more attractive to a potential buyer since they'll be covered by the lifetime warranty as well. I thought that was the whole point behind the double lifetime warranty...
 
I myself went with the 640mb Evga. Gonna step up to the 8900GTS if its released before my 90 days are up.
