Best is hard to say. MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte, and EVGA are the top ones (<---opinion) Take the GTX 760 from nvidia. these companies all have their own version of it the implements what they can bring to the table. Msi talks about its military spec parts. Gigabyte has its impressive cooling system. Asus has its direct cu cooler. And evga has an Ac or whatever cooling system. they all also might have their own unlocked overclocking system. Most of the times these companies will already have the cards overclocked out of the box and may allow more room for you to overclock it more than that and sometimes more than a stock card will allow given that these companies try to implement better cooling solutions.

thanks for the reply,so there's no major difference in performance right?some makers will provide cooling features & some will provide overclocked version of the GPU model right away.is that right? bcoz sometimes the cost of a particular model is so different[low or high] than other card maker thats y the confusion

Don't buy the stock nvidia reference models .
It doesnt have good cooling and less powerful.

Get the factory OC version.
I personally recommend the MSI Twin Frozr edition.
It has good cooling thus makes it a good candidate for overclocking.
Beats 670 and almost on par with 770.
