Hey everyone,

I'm pretty knowledgable about computer parts but I was wondering which of the following would be the better brand to buy:

Newegg.ca - Computer Hardware, Video Cards & Video Devices, nvidia 570

I'm in the market for a new video card for my rig.

Thanks, much appreciated!

EVGA would be my first choice(great support) Asus second.
As for which card to choose, what are you running CPU,CPU heatsink, Motherboard, PSU?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply!

System specs:

750W Antec PSU
AMD Phenom II 1100T 3.30GHz
8gb DDR3 RAM
Nvidia GTS 250 (512mb)
MOBO - GA-880GM-UD2H

I think the video card is severely bottlenecking my performance as it was the only thing I didn't upgrade when I bought everything else new.

Should work with this setup I think, right?

On a AMD system I would go with the rear mounted fan(towards the front of the case)> Newegg.ca - EVGA SuperClocked 012-P3-1572-AR GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

from now on my first choice would always be EVGA
the GTX 570 is a great card and will notice a great performance leap!
