Hi people

Looking to buy a new graphics card today to replace my 560ti.
OCUK has 3 models all with different specs :-
MSI clocked at 960mhz for £260
Sapphire clocked at 925mhz for £240
Gigabyte clocked at 900mhz for £240

Anything i should know about these models i.e reliability, warranty, noise levels?

Any advice appreciated.
 
Gigabyte would be my choice but I am unsure if the later models come voltage locked (can still get a moderate overclock on stock clocks), the Windforce cards and generally considered the coolest and quietest, and the 3 year UK RMA is great.
 
Yeah, get the gigabyte. The MSI has well documented issues. Gigabyte has best warranty terms/support and you'll probably end up with a 1000mhz clock Rev. 2 8+6 which FLIES (mine sure does! :))

Although if you want to voltage tweak like Bacon? say's then probably not for you.
