XFX or EVGA which graphics card

[sam]

My bro is thinking of getting XFX 6800 GS XXX edition card. I understand that all it is, is a factory OC'd 6800 GS. Would it make a difference if i went with the evga card and ocd it myself? Its cheaper than the other so does that mean they left out certain things?

Dear sam:It is really hard or maybe impossible to get eVGA cards in India.The XFX Geforce 6800GS XXX is one of the best cards around and know what,it can be even OC'd a lil more than its actual speed.

Atavistic is Right, you can't get eVGA Cards in India, since no distributor in india is affilated to eVGA, the XFX 6800GS Can be OC'ed very easily, to a smooth 495/1.25GHz from default 475/1GHz, just make sure to use 'Detect Optimal Freq' instead of Manual OC'ing. also, use Riva Tuner to Unlock the Extra Pipelines 12x5 to 16x6 and turn 6800GS into 6800Ultra! And save more than 10k:)
