Anyone else having problems with your cards? there is a topic on the eVGA forums http://www.evga.com/community/messageboard/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13545 I have all these issues, my card was running fantastic the first day I got it (580/1770) now if I want to play a game I have to run 500/1400 or else the game or system crashes, I have a CO card stock at 500/1500 yet it dosen't run at that or else as I said crashing or major artifacts in games. :(

Thats a good decision, From my experience XFX and BFG are the best.

I've been running two 7900 GT Superclocked cards in SLI for three days, no problems yet!

And tonight I'll be upping the voltage to 1.4...

Isn't eVGA the only ones that you can overclock with and not lose your warranty?

eVGA is an amazing company, anyone who says otherwise doesnt know what they are talking about.

They offer the amazing step-up program that I am in right now to upgrade my 6800GS to a 7900GT CO. Who else would let me do that?

They offer cross shipping on RMAs, customer service is great.

They basically tell you to overclock to make your card better, I think you can even change heatsinks without voiding your warranty.

I know the step up is really slow right now but that's nvidia's fault for not making enough damn cards.

I would stay away from XFX and BFG they suck big ones

my eVGA's always did better than any BGF or XFX I bought.

Well eVGA is the manufacturer NVIDIA only makes the GPUs. There's just such a high demand that it's hard to keep up with.

I've never owned a EVGA card, i have read about the step up program. Sounds good though, even though i've read they are slow right now due to quantity. I've got one of the XFX's cards, 6800GS XXX edition and they are really good. The XFX cards come overclocked as standard on some of them. The XXX editions are overclocked, but i think they do some standard edition cards as well.

E-VGA is great for all of those reasons. Ive Owned 2 of there cards so far and like both of them

My next card purchase will be a EVGA 7900GT most likely. I like the lifetime warranty, their openness to overclocking and bios mods, and the upgrade program. Keep it for about 6 months, then upgrade when the next big series of cards come out.

I hope EVGA doesnt mind conductive ink on the card! I hope it comes off easy since i plan on vmodding the card.

Yeah I think that kinda voids the warranty.

Using powerstrip or rivatuner to up your clocks is one thing, but overvolting your card is another.

I thought you only had 90 days (3 months) to trade up?

I've had the best experience with eVGA and will be a buyer for life. The 6800GT I had back a while ago did 470/1.300 on Air with no voltmodding or anything, bet she would've flew with a vmod or two and water O_O

EVGA allows bios mods in the warranty?
