I have ordered a BFG GeForce 8800 GTX OC 768MB but they are out of stock and OC are not sure when the next batch come in.

Should I wait or go with an alternative EVGA or ASUS 8800 GTX?
 
BFG has lifetime warranty but its not in stock. Not sure when it will be. Plus the core is at 600mhz compared to 575mhz on the other two.

EVGA has ten year warranty, is in stock but only one review (5*)

ASUS has a three year warranty, is in stock, a few reviews (5*)

I think I can strike the ASUS off the list unless anyone begs to differ. In that case its between waiting for the BFG or getting the EVGA with less warranty and slower core?
 
You should be able to clock up to 600Mhz no problem. BFG's customer service is decidedly better than EVGA's though. Plus the BFG comes with a T-Shirt :)

So you would wait until the BFG comes in stock? Just that I ordered my new spec this time last week with the BFG card, and it's not been sent to me as the BFG is not in stock. :(

I'm naturally impatient and would change to the EVGA. Not saying its the right move, just the move I would make :p
