ASUS, Sapphire and XFX seem to be among the best here in the US for RMA and all that.

HIS cards seems to be pretty good; low temperatures, decent/low price, good performance, a bit of work on detail (from the looks of their IceQ 4800 series cards). Their rebate service,and RMA service doesn't seem to be too good; couple of poor reviews on Newegg about that... On the other had, there doesn't seem to be a lot of issues with the products.

well my point was that all reference cards are going to perform the same...

performance and temperature differences between two reference cards are non-existent.

XFX has been slipping in my opinion, I have had capacitors pop on the last 3 cards and they wouldnt rma 2 since the card wasnt "registered" with them.

I've used Sapphire for ATI back when I used ATI. In fact, I still have a sapphire 9000pro 64mb that still runs to this day with daily usage! :mrgreen:
