Which of these 3 cards ?

[Brizzles]

Which of these 3 would you go with ?

a) Gainward GeForce GTX 570 Golden Sample Goes Like Hell 1280MB

b) Gainward GeForce GTX 570 Phantom 1280MB

c) EVGA GeForce GTX 570 Superclocked 1280MB


Give or take a tenner, they are all the same price.

Pros/Cons;

a) Overclocked with what looks like decent cooling
b) Just looks tasty
c) Overclocked / long warranty - But single fan cooling

Help me decide please

I'd have said the Gainward Phantom as it appears it would run cooler out of the 3 of them, so you might get a bigger overclock from it.

But, the one review I've seen of it says there's no way to control the voltage ? No idea if it works with Afterburner or not.

As for the warranty. Do you think you'd really keep it for more than 2+ years ?

Personally I'd get the Golden Sample Goes Like Hell one. Big cooler, pre-overclocked, adjustable voltage, lovely.

The Phantom, but u didnt wait for any opinions! It has superior cooling, looks good and will easily clock to the glh speeds.

Just get the cheapest MSI 570 £285 they all overclock about the same, use a fan profile. My 470 at 850/1700/2000 fan profile upto 60% l could just make out the fan peak temp 82'c. l do believe the 570 runs cooler + less noise anyway than the 470.
