I'm probably going to say eVGA and BFG are the better brands, but honestly, they are all very similar. Nvidia keeps tight reins on card development. The differences are mainly in customer service, warranty, and software bundle.

evga or BFG they both give good support.

 

[keviheit]

i heard that leadtek makes some good video cards is that ture

 

[mwmorph]

they're all the same reference cooler this gen, buit BFg has a stock oc and lifetime warranty. 1 XFX card has a better oc stock, but lets face it, XFX tech support is like tying yorself to a tourture rack, inducing chinese water torture on your self and having to eat your organs at the same time.

leadtek is definetely one of the best (if not the best) card makers around. the 7 series all look the same, so the difference in quality in these might not be as far apart.

BFG, but as I always say,

Whatever you decide to buy,
Don't get XFX, or PNY!

eVGA rocks... but BFG has incredible support and warranty.

I honestly believe you can't go wrong with either.

BFG.

- Great Support
- Lifetime Warranty
- Pre-overclocked

What else could you ask for?

 

[Unkno]

get whichever cost less....but i would recommend you getting bfg if price isn't an issue

BFG,eVGA,Leadtek

I'd get an eVGA and trade up for the Ultra once it comes out.

 

[keviheit]

BFG for warranty. EVGA for stock 30mhz OC.

 

[jdogg707]

BFG for the fact that I can run mine at 500/1350 all day long in my SFF w/no extra cooling.

as in when the Ultra comes out you can sent your GTX in and they will send you an Ultra for the price you paid for the GTX + the cost over that of the Ultra.

EVGA, Leadtek, and BFG are very nice graphics card makers.

Also Asus uses very high quality parts, but being a larger business their tech support is not as good as it once was. Additionally some of their names can be very deceptive.

MSI, although a long time ago they did have those issues with cheap capacitors, make very nice video cards as well.

Those are the best... obviously, the other brands are fine (with the exception of PNY, and XFX which i will discuss later).

PNY and XFX, are the two brands you will want to stay away from. While there are many nice brands that aren't as high quality as the aformentioned (Powercolor), XFX and PNY traditionally, have poor quality, and bad tech support.

EVGA or BFG.

EVGA is now lifetime warranty + 24/7 support as well.
