what Brand do you recommend for Graphics Card Nvidia EVGA MSI OR ASUS For gaming and recording with fraps what best one to get going to sli
 
EVGA is the best for customer service and MSI is probably the best for card quality, but Asus is probably excellent for card quality too. 3GB models are a little better than the 2GB models even if you don't use 2GB of VRAM capacity due to the odd memory configuration.

I don't recommend using a GTX 660 TI because they are extremely unbalanced cards. I recommend the Radeon 7870 more if you overclock and the Radeon 7950 whether or not you overclock if you want to spend more money (it has a similar price to the 660 TI). AMD's cards are far better for overclocking and the 7950 has better stock performance than the 660 TI. Even a Radeon 7850 can meet or beat the 660 TI when you overclock both cards.

You probably don't overclock, so I recommend the 7950. If you want a 660 TI anyway, then again, I'd choose between EVGA and MSI, which one you choose depending on whether you value customer service over the quality of the cooler.
