I have decided on one of the more expensive 6600gts.
I prefer buying from newegg, so here are the links to all those cards.

My comp's specs are in my sig. I was thinking PNY, but I just heard someone say that there have been a lot of pny lemons. Please don't suggest a 6800 NU, because the heatsinks on the 2 that are $200 are tiny, and I am only replacing my card because it overheated and died.
I play a lot of FPS's, such as HL2, Doom3, and am planning on buying battlefield vietnam.

So which 6600 gt should I get?
 
Yeah the MSI is nice, but I'm on a budget. $20 is a lot less..
Any oppinions on the PNY model?
 
I'm thinking leadtek right about now... do any of you think I need a PSU? mine is a no-name PSU and It only has one exhaust fan. The power lines are pretty damn close on, but it's a no-name...
 
bump. Does anyone have any oppinions on the PNY? Is it a good card or is it just overpriced because it's blue?
 
i like bfg and msi.

avoid chaintek , gainward in my opinion.

pny... hummmm mixed feeling on them.
 
I've had the PNY and BFG 6600's. The BFG gets my vote, the PNY isn't bad. Also I'd recommend eVGA and Leadtek. Although some of Leadtek's cooling solutions bother me.
