So I'm looking into buying a new video card but don't know much about the various brands that are out there. I've read on Newegg that XFX support sucks but they have a lifetime warranty (which is moot if their support sucks). Any recommendations on brands?
I'd also like some recommendations on models. I'm not sure of my budget. I'm putting together a new system and would like to be able to play games at high resolutions (1600x1200 or 1920x1200) so I'm obviously needing a powerful card. Is the 8800gt the way to go? Or would the cheaper 9600gt still be able to play well at those resolutions? If neither of those cards are good enough for high resolutions, what card would you recommend?
