[bsas]

I want to get the best price / performance RadeonHD 6870.
So, which one I can get? ASUS, Gigabyte, XFX?

If you find , buy Sapphire or MSI Twin Frozr.

Thanks! But why those are better then an Asus or a Gigabyte? (just curiosity)

MSI twin frozr cards are known for their very good cooling capability and overclocking headroom and usually doesn't cost that much than the reference card. Personally, I'd never pick asus cards, they're usually quite expensive and uses triple slot cooler which doesn't really performs as well as msi twin frozr cards

The only Ausus triple slot cooler were on the GTX 570 and 580 I never seen any triple slot ausus cooler on Readeon cards.

Well, the point is that twin frozr cards are usually better and doesn't cost as much as asus direct cu cards. Personally, I find it better to go for twin frozr cards but I do not oppose those who choose others
