I've heard that the leadtek does infact have a better stock HSF allowing for higher core overclocks. After about a week burn in time I have been able to get my eVGA from 500/900 to 564/1100 as it's top OC thus far. The core at those speeds will get up to 85C rather easily, unless I have my window open and let cool air in or something.....soooo honestly it's a toss up. Can't say I've heard anyone having any problems with leadteks, but I went eVGA because I know a lot of people, (not just forum folks, friends of mine also) that have never had a problem with an eVGA card, and I figure here within 3 weeks or so I will be going water cooling, so that stock HSF wont' matter
