    GIGABYTE GTX 670 card vs PCS GTX 670?

    I've noticed a lot of people recommend GIGABYTE as a top brand..is this so for the GTX 670? I'm just wondering as if its worth buying the GPU separately then I may get the rest of the build on PCS and buy the GPU off of newegg.

    If its worth it, that is so if anyone can shed any light on this enquiry then please do!

    Thanks a lot

    if its worth buying the GPU separately
    If there is an issue with your GPU it will not be covered by your warranty with PCS. Apart from that if you want to go with a particular manufacturer then you could get the GPU from another retailer.

    You need to check reviews online, there are many different manufacturers with different versions.

    Very helpful link ruben. Seems to be between the Zotac and GIGABYTE..but as you mentioned, I wouldn't be covered by PCS on it. Tough decision..

    Thankyou +rep
