My vote was Gigabyte, I'm a sucker for their ultra durable cards. redesigned pcb, better components, better cooling, all win.

lately more than ever their cards have been simply amazing, the cooler they use now (2 fan) is as close to silent as you can get with amazing cooling ability.

Hmm I guess I´ve read wrong that Gainward were a Premium Partner with Nvidia then, as no love is displayed for my 2 GAINWARD Cards :)

But anyways my vote goes for teh cheapest brand yet close to military grade components & for me STABLE & COOL! (both temperaturewise and l00ks :)

// Dog

edit: yeah bring HIS to teh list...make it C0mplete FFS! [Joking]

PowerColor: if a company adds a cooler that makes the card look like something taken from The Yellow Submarine, whilst working silently and extremely efficiently, they get my vote.

Anyone. The cheapest ones. I've pretty much never noticed much, if any, difference between brands.

Powercolor have done some nice cheap cards with excellent cooling in the past though, and I am a fan of their Green cards.

I picked up MSI, it was my first VGA card that I owned (an SE9550), and It's my current VGA (a GTX280).

Must say both looked very solid and performed very well, I would picked up eVGA but a 9800GT died on me.
