I'm looking to buy a graphics card for a gaming build (I will be playing Skyrim, BF3/4, BO2, Arma2/3, Minecraft, etc. I found the Gigabyte Windforce GTX 670 and the EVGA FTW Signature 2 GTX 670 and I can't seem to find many reviews comparing the two. I've heard the Signature 2 is more powerful but the Gigabyte has better cooling. Which one is better?
Thanks in advance.

I'm leaning towards EVGA because everyone says they have the best customer support. The only thing that concerns me about it is that I've read it has no memory or voltage regulator cooling. Would that even matter?
