I found a deal in Canada; Powercolor 4890 for $169. Is it worth getting, or should I spend more and get another brand?

What's powercolor's warranty like?

3 year warranty. not the greatest. heatsync doesnt touch the memory chips at all. goes to 80c, but thats fine.card temp is 70 at load, 100 fan. for 169, this card is a steal. it competes well with my dads 275, just a little slower in some dx10 games.

3 years is average.

Powercolor is a decent ATI videocard maker.
