I am about to buy an 8800gtx. I know that the 2 most popular good companies are EVGA and BFG.
They are both the same price and bacsically identical, so it just comes down to the company.
When RMAing a card with EVGA or BFG, where do they ask you to send the card to?
If one asks to send to the UK and another to the USA, I would much prefer the UK one just for peace of mind.
Many thanks,
Sital
bleh, no reply so Im just going to go with the BFG :) Hopefully I made the right decision
BFG: lifetime warranty
EVGA: warranty isn't void when overclocking IIRC.
oh thats fine then. luckily made the right decision as I wasnt planning to overclock so would rather have the lifetime warranty :)
Just get a BFG card because the have a depot in wales for RMA or so I'm told and plus you should get a free T-Shirt :mrgreen:
BFG + EVGA lifetime warranty is only in america becasue in europe we only get 10 years because of european laws or so I have read :)
lol @ the free T-shirt :P
I have ordered the BFG and it is arriving tomorrow. If they do have a depot in wales, thats excellent!
Many of the BFG cards also come factory overclocked already.
We've already had the BFG vs EVGA thread http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.php?t=111311
bfg, never had or heard of anyone with problems with them. even tho ocing voids their warranty i know if you do it carefully but the card stops working later on they will still replace it and not be fussy.
lol nice :woowoo:Quote:

plus I have just brought a BFg 8800 gts 320mb for the other halfs pc :mrgreen:
Is it really worth paying the extra over these unbranded GTX's?
The main difference seems to be warranty...
I would say if you can afford the extra then go for it but other then the warranty there is not alot of difference :mrgreen:Quote:
