Hey guys, my question is just like the title says! This is going to be my first time building a computer so I'm not familiar with what brands are reliable/better than the others. I've heard good things about Sapphire but that's pretty much all I know. If it helps out at all, I will be planning on doing Crossfire later down the road.

ASUS, MSI, HIS, Gigabyte is pretty reputable, Palit been around for some time.. Zotac and XFX should be fine too. Main factors should be warranty and price. Another potential main factor is whether it comes with a fan on it.

In addition to the manufacturer, you need to look at features too. Different versions of 6950 are offered by the same manufacturer.
But of course, your budget will play the most role in your selection unless there is no limit to it.
