I am looking to get a Geforece3 and am wondering which card to get. I have read that the Leadtek's have decent cooling, the Visiontek's are pretty cheap, the Hercules would be good but is a bit more than most 3's, any suggestions? I would like to have price a factor, and spend up to and around $400.

Love my VisionTek GF3. You can pick one for about $340. Also, Buy.com has the Elsa Gladiac 920 GF3 (built by VisionTek) for about $331 shipped (gotta use a coupon with free shipping good till ?), comes with the GF3 enhanced version of Giants.

Depending on prices, you might want to check out the ASUS v8200. if it's anything like the ASUS v7700, you're in for a treat; it has great OC potential and more bells and whistles than other brands, and is very stable.

I've had issues with Leadtek before, and now I use VisionTek whenever possible.
