I would recommend Evga, for the Step-up program and unparalleled customer support/service.

I have issues currently with EVGA, over blown caps on my video card.
I got a nice XFX 8800GT for $200, and I think I will be buying more from them.

Just stick to the known brands.

Personally, I think the company that has the best services is BFG, however their cards costs a fortune.

XFX is real good too.

Gonna have to second the eVGA vote. Have been very pleased with them, and there's no beating the stepup program. Just don't mess with anything but the base model card. I have mine OCed to SSC specs, so you can save a few bucks and still get the higher performance.

I got the XFX alpha dog ed. The drivers are fixed, and you don't have to worry about anything overheating or the fan blazing at 100% so u can play...

Lifetime warranty, great card...

Here is a list I was looking at...I'm currently leaning toward the BFG 8800GT OC with 512 MB memory for $299 after rebate. From everyone else's POV, which is best in this list?

I'm looking for a great card that doesn't make a lot of noise...the dual slot coolers appeal to me, but if I'm better off with a 3rd party cooler, please recommend some! Thanks! Budget is around 300, give or take 20 bux.

$200 for an XFX Wow that's the cheapest price I've ever heard of for these cards, can you please tell us where you bought it? Thanks a lot.

Edit: Or are you talking about the 256MB version?

asus has a nice 1GB version with a big fan on it! the 256mb version has it as well!

check it oug :
http://asus.com/products.aspx?l1=2&l2=6&l3=442&l4=0&model=2012&modelmenu=1

have fun with chosing. i'll prefere an xfx, because they have a bigger 'little' fan, but that asus has a great gib fan! and less noice i guess

see for your self
