Next week I will be ordering my 6870 CF set up just trying to narrow down the brand choices , I personally have had 1 sapphire card ( old school ati 9700 pro still works ) , I have had 2 evga cards ( Geforce 4 440 MX , 9800 GTX+) and a slew of asus cards all ATI. I'm hesitating between these brands. Some input would be helpful. I know they are all pretty much the same thing but I'm just wondering on the warranty.

Im leaning towards the xfx even though i have never had one of there cards just for the lifetime warranty , but originally wanted to go with the Asus card because of the mild overclock and better cooling. Im just wondering if the Asus card will fit in my antec 1200 and if I'll loose any pci slots considering the heat sink and fan on it looks huge. Check the asus site but couldn't find the right info. My mobo is M4A78-E and I have a usb bracket that i don't want to loose and a sound card in there. Looking forward to see what you guys have to say
Thanks in advance.
