Just wondering what brand is best options?

I have an XFX 5970 Black Edition ordered but wondered whether Sapphires 5970 OC edition is better or not?

Whatever has the best warranty, the oc edition is a joke, its like 10mhz on the core and 25 on the ram or something stupid like that.
 
I've been told XFX is good for Warranty however I had the option today of the Sapphire but read elsewhere of issues with cooling fan noise and bios issues.

Problem is I can't seem to find any comparisons between the brands to see which performs best.

They'll perform the same, only difference will be overclocking and thats essentially luck of the draw if your card can be pushed as much as others.

Id hold out for the xfx,
