XFX 7850 DD (non-black edition) or HIS 7850 IceQ X

[akbg1]

Hi guys,
witch one to choose?

XFX Radeon HD 7850 Double D 860MHZ 2GB 4.8GHZ GDDR5 2xDVI HDMI 2XMINIDP PCI-E Video Card
http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=70951&vpn=FX-785A-CDFC&manufacture=XFX

or

HIS 7850 IceQ X 2GB GDDR5 PCI-E DVI/HDMI/2xMini DP (is not available yet in Canada)
http://www.hisdigital.com/un/product2-690.shtml

I now that both are similar in term of performance, but I'm looking also low levels of noise, temperatures and power consumption (and good quality for sure).

Is it worth to wait for HIS release, seems like it is very quiet and cool, or XFX is also cool and quiet...

Thanks

would like to see an answer to this as well since the MSI twin seems to be mia all over the place. you can also get the asus 7850 for 255 from tigerdirect.

I will buy the XFX one, but I saw in tom's hardware long time ago that IceQ X cooler are excellent cooler. So for you it doesn't matter that much.
