I know that for nvidia there is EVGA, that uses only nvidia gpus, and they are pricy and of very good quality...

And then theres sapphire that uses only amd... But apart from that, I dont realy know much about them.

Can you guys inform me about sapphire? Do they make good quality cards? How do they compare to other brands? What is particular about their cards and so on?

thanks!

it also seems that sapphire cards come priced same as asus, msi, gigabyte (unlike evga, where you have to pay 20-30 usd or more to get it)... although there are also pricy variants in sapphire cards, that are more expensive (was it that vapor x or something)...

I went to wiki, the company is about 10 years so very cool actualy...

do they give any software and other twerks with their cards? (i.e. msi afterburner, gigabyte oc guru, whatever)
yes they are good quality brands. all brands will have the same performance some come overclocked out of the box some with different cooling methods to insure the best temps even when overclocking nothing much to say about it.Evga is a great brand but there cooling methods are abit different compared to others and slightly expensiver but still a good brand.

I think gigabytes strategy is to clock their cards very high out of the box, a lot of times going above other brands, and they tend to use a lot of fans and ramp them up to keep the cards cool...

I think msi strategy is to make their fans spin at very low rpm and low noise, so that the card might be hotter, but below the 70-80c (when cards, or nvidia cards, start to clock back in order to prevent damage)

asus is kinda in the middle, good fans, good rpm, good noise, deacent clocks...

I maybe wrong though
