I was looking at the GTX 660's and i was wondering which of the following brands make it the best with the lowest temps and highest overclocking capability. (the prices dont matter; i used all newegg links because its probably the easiest way to see them)

Asus - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
EVGA - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
GigaByte - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
MSI - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

so no huge difference. so is it safe to say that msi is the coolest?

well being the coolest isn't the only thing you also can look at quietness and the asus one wins that by far meaning you can turn up the fan louder that the others without getting annoying meaning more cool.i really prefer the asus card it is just so well made

so asus or MSI? they cost the same. also can i only use MSI afterburner if i have a msi card?

i can say my gigabyte windforce card never even hits 60C, thats at about 25C ambient temperature. I dont think you can get much cooler than that. But i can tell you, overclocking with these cards is VERY minimal unless you are prepared to overvolt with BIOS mods. there are NO software tools that overvolt these cards successfully, even if the option is on the screen, it does nothing.
