I'm going to be getting a new graphics card...at first, I was thinking of getting a X800 Pro, but Newegg screwed me recently, so I have some credit with them, and I was thinking of getting an X800 XL instead (a good idea?).
In any case, the board is going to be water-cooled, so I don't care about stock fans, etc. Given that, what's the best brand to go with for an X800 XL? Perhaps Sapphire? There's also a reasonably priced Gigabyte @ Newegg also...As well as an MSI, Asus, Abit, HIS, and Connect3D...
Can anyone recommend one brand over another, and if so, why?
Also, I've never fiddled with any AIW cards before, but there appears to be a cheap X800 XT AIW floating around out there...maybe that would be even better??
Thanks!
