I think it was either Flanker or Carbine that told me this, but when i needed to pick a video card, and 2 guys said that XFX is like all garbage....it turns out that the only reason ppl in this forum think it sux is because 1! person had a problem with it, and who knows maybe he tried shoving a PCI E in an AGP slot. XFX i think is also good because it comes overclocked.......and you wont have to screw it up if you try overclocking it urslef.
I just did a search on that and found the thread, it was Flanker
Seemed like a smart guy, too bad he got banned.

I think XFX is starting to become better then they used to be but I see no reason to not go with EVGA or BFG over XFX.
Like Flanker said to you before, its not that they're getting better, they've always been good. Apparently, they just have a bad rep on this forum. Think about it, someone has a problem 5 (now 6, probably) months ago. It gets a bad rep. In the 6 months that follow, no one has a problem. So they're supposedly "getting better." Face it, XFX is one of the best.
Though I HAVE to admit, eVGA is better than all of them. If I had a choice of any company, I would spurt out eVGA's name without even thinking. Often times, there's nothing to think about, they have the lowest prices, haha.
I'm just saying that since eVGA isn't an option for you, and BFG (another good company) doesn't make those cards, then don't rule out XFX, its very good itself.
