I was wondering will it make any difference who the manufacturer of a graphics card is, with so many manufacturers out there selling the same product, is there any reason why I should buy the more expensive one.
Example of prices of same product below of same graphics card. !

The card GTX 260 896MB
XFX £235
ZOTAC £214
PALIT £193
ASUS £241
GIGABYTE £200
LEADTEK £185
As you can see the prices vary, so would I be better going for the cheaper one or the more expensive one ?

All the same unless they dont use the reference coolers the only major difference is there warranty and extra policies. evga setup 90days life time warranty, xfx people buying a card second handed will still be covered by warranty.
