Which one of these models should I purchase?

1. BFG Tech BFGR68256GTOCX Geforce 6800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814143025 RetailIt's on one day sale and it seems to be the best card out of the bunch. I checked the price on Zipzoomfly and it costs 419. Should I get this one?

2. BFG Tech BFGW68256GTOCXV Geforce 6800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814143029 It seems very similiar to number 1. What's the difference?

3.eVGA 256-P2-N376-AX Geforce 6800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814130215

4. XFX PVT45GUDF3 Geforce 6800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814150091 The cheapest

5. MSI NX6800GT-T2D256E Geforce 6800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814127158 The most expensive.

Thank you
 
If the BFG costs the same than the rest, go for it.

If you plan on upgrading it within 3 months, get the eVGA.

Which BFG model? Number 1 or 2?

The difference between 1 and 2 is that one is blue and the other is green. Which ever color you like better, choose that one.

JK, but really the blue one is HDTV and composite out while the green one is S Video out.
 
I would choose BFG from personal expierence.

EDIT: not that I had bad expierences with the others, just good expierences with BFG🙂

EDIT2: there's a reason that XFX is the cheapest, it's the worst. Other people that I know have had bad expierences with XFX, so as I always say


whatever you decide to buy,
don't get XFX, or PNY!
 
i currently have two evga 6800 ultras, and i couldn't be happier with them. so personal experience would make me suggest evga.
