    Doesn't matter really, EVGA and BFG are probably 2 ofthe most respected brands for Nvidia cards.

      As stated, it doesn't really matter Just because it's Asus does not necessarily mean it will work with your board any better.

        Find review of the model you are considering example EVGA or BFG, when you found it zoom in on the memory rating used by the manufacturer.

        Same name of card does not necessarely mean that the various OEM use the same memory. Main difference there, in performnace and in price.

          the eVGA 7800 GTX KO edition is the best, it has the highest clock speeds, and a better heatsink, and i believe it comes with a free copy of battlefield 2, it also has a lifetime warrantee.

          then again it's probably the most expensive.

                What about XFX? They usually have really low memory latencies, and good clock speed/overclockability.
