Whats the difference between an OCUK, Gainward, EVGA and BFG 8800GTS 640mb?

They all seem to do the same thing, just that they vary in price slightly. Im confused :confused:
 
Only the Warranty's, BFG is lifetime, EVGA is 10yrs etc... and the BFG is overclocked so it has a 550 core instead of 500 like the rest, also the bundles like games etc..., all the same cards though, as all are made in the same place then just have each different manufacturers logo etc... slapped on em. :)
 
Can anyone tell me what the differences are in the free goodies with each model, i know the bfg comes with t-shirt and mouse pads but how about the others.

Cheers

I guess that warranty is void if you OC the card?
 
No they wouldn't know. :p

Theres plenty of ppl borked their cards by overclocking and sent them back for replacement, its the norm, they also replace the stock coolers with third party ones, bork them, then replace the stock cooler so they can return them for replacements. :D

The stream processors are also clocked at 1.3GHz on the BFG 'OC' (compared to 1.2Ghz on the standard models).
