Question How much does the GPU brand matter?

[airconditi0n3r]

Is it better to get a Sapphire RX 6800 or a XFX RX 6800 XT if they're basically the same price. I'm new to building pc's but from what I've read Sapphire seems like its a much better brand the XFX.

Sapphire and XFX have been with AMD for a while. XFX though were an Nvidia exclusive board partner. Sapphire have been with AMD for a long while, to my knowledge since the early 2000's or maybe longer. So treat them like EVGA but for AMD's cards.

Can you pass on the links to both cards so we may compare them? Also, what is the make and model of your PSU and it's age?
