Ok I'm building a new system with a DFI LanParty (N4 Chipset UT series), 3000+ Wini (will OC), and a 6600gt.

Which 6600GT do you suggest? I'm ordering from newegg.com

I was thinkin' between the EVGA and Gigabyte. Any suggestions?

BTW I'm lookign for a PCI-e version.
 
I would go with BFG or EVGA, but if you are going to spend this much have you thought about an X800XL? If you can find a good deal they can be had for ~$270 which is a little more money for a lot more performance.
 
EVGA so you can trade it in for a better card at some point down the road.
 
you only get 90 days to upgrade to a better card with the evga Step-Up program. It's more of a tool to give you a chance and see if you like the performance of a card and it not, upgrade to a better one. "down the road" to most ppl isn't in a month and a half. :p
 
BTW: BFG = lifetime warranty (as long as you don't overclock) + factory overclocked already.
 
I have 2 Gigabytes and they both work fine. I overclock to 550/1.1 on both with no issues on stock cooling.
 
I was goin to get a 6800nu AGP but I decided it was a good time to go ahead and switch to 64bit and then I decided it was best to go PCI-e now so I dont have to do even mroe upgrades. But anything over $200 is not in the question.
