Hi guys, I would like to get an nVidia 6800 Ultra, but would like to known which one would you recommend to me??

I need a PCI-Express video card.

I known that XFX & BFG has overclocked card, that explain the price, but, I don't need that, unless there's a super deal out there! :D

MSI (MAKE SURE IT'S THE COPPER HEATSINK VERSION)!!!!

If you can't locate one, get the normal MSI or GigaByte.

Go with the LeadTek -- had good experience using three different generations of LeadTek GeForce cards.

doesn't matter on what you get - they all are the same cards and will bench around the same (every gpu i the world is a bit different). its the support, warranties and games that make the diference

lol obviously...who would pay $1000 for something that would just give u 5fps at max at full details cranked...better to get a 6800GT SLI or even a 6800U SLI setup

BFG. Can't beat their lifetime warranty with a stick or any other similar object.

I have a BFG now, but i liked the Leadtek i had before better.

Leadtek, then BFG, then eVGA IMO.

Oh yeah, why?

Hey guys, I do have a question about BFG, if I change the cooler on it for a more silencer one, does the lifetime warranty is void ?
