BFG is crap? BFG makes the best and so does Leadtek.

Yeah, I also have had absolutely no problems with my XFX 6800GT
and I have it running at 410/1.110 - no stability errors, no artifacts, just a little on the hot side.

You might want to look at Chaintech. I have a Chaintech 6600GT dual dvi. Works great and one of the quieter cards that uses a fan shroud. In addition, you can use Gainwards Expertool to adjust the fan speed and stuff on this card. Their tech support also seems pretty nice. I emailed them about a missing component cable and they replied and got it to me a few days later at no extra charge.

just go XFX then.

yeah, not a fan of BFG...they are a lot of "show" and not a lot of substance...I have OC'd a number of cards of the last few years, and generally had poor-ok results with BFG cards...id stick with MSI, Asus or Gainward (most recommended)...just my luck...but i dont recommend them myself

That might be because BFG cards are overclocked out of the box.
