I'm not sure what to go for? the Zotac has 660MHz while the XFX has 625MHz. Also Zotac is cheaper while the XFX comes with free game? I don't know what to pick.

id go with xfx because its brand name. probably has better customer service and warranty. Also you could easily overclock the xfx card to 660

I vote for XFX too but I don't agree the overclock part, if you oveclock to 660mhz on stock cooling that card will burn

I've read some reviews for the Zotac AMP Editionand they say it is better than the XFX. Apparently Zotac is a company created by Sapphire that makes ATI cards. I tried to find out the warranty but cant find it anywhere.Also it seems all the other major ones are sold out.

The Zotac is 700MHz and 2 GHz memory clock and 1700 MHz shader clock

the figures seem to be better but is it really?

the good thing of a zotac card is that you can overclock it very good.. it has a far more better cooler then the xfx.. a bigger one
