Nice card

EVGA = nice warranty

Seeing as you asked is there a better / cheaper alternative....
Yes there, is you can get the Connect3D ATI Radeon X1900 XT 256MB GDDR3 AVIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-053-CO)

Will be faster & cheaper than the eVGA card.

Its a shame you don't read the post's properly ACESHIGH


The card you mention cannot be used in SLI

Sorry, missed that bit.

How about ...
Gainward BLISS Geforce 7900 GT "Golden Sample" 256MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-040-GW)
Price: £159.99 (£187.99 Including VAT at 17.5%)

It has faster clocks. Same price.
Infact i trhink this may be a typo, as the Gainward BLISS Geforce 7900 GT 256MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-028-GW) is more expensive!

Id stick with the EVGA as theres a few Gainwards borked due to the reliability problem the 7900's have, and EVGA are supposed to be fixed, although some still say EVGA are not fixed yet, but ive not seen a my EVGA 7900 GT borked thread yet, only millions from the other brands.
