MasterP: XFX has a double lifetime warranty (it is transferrable to a second owner). I think that makes XFX win over evga. Though I would like to mention that Kuros noticed something and I think it was more than coincidence: XFX and EVGA products are IDENTICAL. They are probably made by the same manufacturer. Must be a good one too since both companies offer lifetime warranties!

Must be a good one too since both companies offer lifetime warranties!They may now but when Iwas specing video cards they didn’t on the 8800s. They really could considering how long their cards last.
XFX has been around much longer than eVGA. I think the reason they both do well is because they don’t screw with features they know already work. MSI and PNY have a very bad habit of screwing around with things and as such most gamers don’t buy from them.
I know they aren’t the same company but they may be using the same board schematics.
I have a xfx 9600 gt at its a awsome card if my motherboard could handle it and call of duty 4 is a bad *edited* game i played it at frys
eVGA cross shipped me an 8800GTX at the beginning of the year because mine decided to die! It took about 3 days to get my new card.
The service was fast and reliable. Until I get a bad deal from eVGA I am going to stick with them.
