Default Any difference in these 2 6800GS cards?
Other than manufacturer I don't see any difference other than the eVGA needs a 6-pin adapter which is supposed to be included but is not in a lot of the reviews. So I was going to go with the MSI 6800GS. Performance wise they should be the same right? Both seem to be quality companies from what I've read. Thanks.

They are basically identical.

The eVGA may OC a little better (that's their reputation, anyway).

Both cards will do you good service.
