Hello good folks, please tell me which one to pick, take note they are both the exact same prize:

GIGABYTE Super Overclock Series GV-N56GSO-1GI GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

MSI N560GTX Twin Frozr II/OC GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

I just found out today my GTX 260 doesn't cut it anymore. Even my i7-2600k and 8GB of DDR3 Ram, the BF3 Beta is really choppy. It says I have around 25 to 35 fps on medium but it's laggy. This card seems pretty cheap, especially since I was planning on getting Arkham City...

Thanks!

Humm the amount of people that had to RMA this card is kinda scary...

Spend the extra $40 and get the 560 Ti, otherwise you are just spending $200 on an overclocked 460. MSI Twin Frozr II 560 Ti http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127565C_Rule

The core clock on that Gigabyte is 830 mhz compared to the MSI's (not the TI) 870 mhz. Does that change much?

So then, the best would be the Gigabyte one, it has a core clock of 900 mhz compared to the MSI's 870 mhz. Keep in mind I'm not an overclocker, I've never done it before and I very much doubt I would do it on this card. It also has better reviews.

Which one would you choose?

I boughta 560 not long ago and love the card. But! I have an older computer and I didn't see spending allot more. If I had an I72600 I'd have got a better card.Now if your stuck cause of money go for the gigabyte. The twin fans are nice, I had a 275 twin frozr and loved it, but I don't believe the newer cards run as hot and the gigabyte clocks a little faster.:)
