Hello

As the Subjekt says i need a new gfx card, and ive been looking at the 8800gtx series. Atm. im mostly hooked at the OC card fra BFG:
"BFG GeForce 8800 GTX OC2"
So i searched the net, and i couldent find any reviews/roundups where they test the oc´versioner of the 8800gtx against eachother.

So im kinda lost when it gets 2 the oc versions, which one should i choose?

ps. please no "wait for the new AMD" or "get the 8800gts version, its good enough" i need the best there is atm.

e-GeForce 8800GTX 768MB KO ACS3

I came up with this ones specs looking the best. Looks like it has the highest clock speeds and the most memory bandwidth.

Plus if you buy from EVGA you get the step up program:

Found this by searching the major manufacturers and looking at all their data.

*EDIT* Oops saw your options, the OC2 has almost the same exact specs.

I think I heard the XFX has been nice to people that have wanted to overclock with their version.

I too like the evga because of the step-up program. I would however go for whatever's cheaper unless your not into OCing yourself.

XFX, eVGA, BFG, Leadtek are all good brands.

Evga, BFG, and XFX, are all good quality companies and highly respected here in these forums. Usually offer factory overclocked models and good warranties. Some even transferable when it comes to selling a card.

I also agree with Evga, mostly because of the step-up program. And don't buy the ACS3 model. Waste of money.
