Hey guys, I'm upgrading my x1800xt to a 8800gt and was just browsing overclockers 8800gt section when the sheer variety of 8800gt caught me off guard. I'm one of those people who couldn't stand to think they could have got something better for the same price and I've always found the advice I've garnered from these boards to be impeccable. Therefore, if anyone could please opine on which card from this page they would buy I would be extremely grateful.

You want the 512mb one, right?

Evga, XFX, BFG, Asus. These are the most popular. Out of these brands pick the cheapest one. I see that ASUS on sale, get that one.

Get the Asus, as it's the cheapest 512MB one along with OcUK Value and it has a better warranty.

I would probably go with this one since it is a good price right now, and in stock from a good company. I don't really trust single slot coolers for the overclocked editions, but thats just my two cents. Hope this helps!

I'd suggest the EVGA or BFG. Only simply because right now EVGA is buddeling Crysis with thier cards and also provides a lifetime warranty on all thier cards as well. Just a suggestion, make that number 7, 655

Above all try to get one of the G92 models; they're WAY ahead of the rest.
