Title: Best brand of gfx card to use? Post by: Sideways on June 03, 2011, 05:19:54 AM I don't mean to start a flame war of "MSI cards are the best!" But I am looking for suggestions if one brand of a card or another behaves better when overclocking, or running 24/7 for mining. I'm wondering because as I look for cards, there's always a price range for a certain GPU. Being your standard consumer, lower prices are typically better, but not if a $10-$20 more expensive card is going to perform better or live longer.
Any suggestions? One brand or another to stay away from? Title: Re: Best brand of gfx card to use? Post by: Atroxes on June 03, 2011, 06:10:54 AM I'd say it has more to do with the cooler mounted on the graphics card.
Stay away from those flat 1-slot 5770's for example. Nowhere near enough cooling power! Title: Re: Best brand of gfx card to use? Post by: Mapatti on June 03, 2011, 06:16:37 AM Personally i like Sapphires Vapor X cards. Because they can be OC'ed and they got efficient cooling.
