Help with NVIDIA GeForce MX

Ok...I'm in the process of building a new PC and I'm going to be purchasing a Geforce MX based card. My question is has anyone read any reviews of specific manufacturers cards? I currently have an old Creative Labs TnT based card and have been happy with it but was wondering if anyone had experience with NVIDIA based cards made by other companies? I've heard that Hercules has gone down the toilet since Guillemont(sp?) purchased them. Is this true? I'm considering waiting for the Elsa card to come out since a friend highly recommends them. However I've also run across a MX card made by a company named evga but I have never heard from them before. I've looked at their site, http://www.evga.com, and the board looks like your basic reference card. I'm thinking of ordering it since it's $115(U.S.) and was wondering if anything knows about their products. I've searched for reviews of anything they have made but cannot find a thing. Not usually a good sign but the way I see it a reference design card is a reference design card whether it comes from Hercules, Creative, Elsa, or in this case evga.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
 
I would wait for a few more manuacturers get cards out. That evga is a preorder anyway, so i seriously doubt you'll get it before other cards show up. though reference is reference, manufacturing quality is important. i'm probably going to get an elsa, or cl card
