I have the powercolor version
had it for 3 months now
and am very happy with it

i also got a free dirt 2(or dirt3 i think) game with it

just think my cpu is holding it back a bit in demanding games

see you also have the same cpu as me

all gfx cards should be reliable though

The Ice Q is ur best bet if your willing to pay the premium for the cooling, otherwise i personally would go for the Sapphire one as Sapphire IMO are top build quality their cooling solutions are better than most.

I have two of the Sapphires used for the last year; no issues and overclocked well. Only swapping out as mainly as I wanted more VRAM and GTX 480s are great deals right now. Selling both of them for $210 shipped I think just haven't posted them up yet.
