|  Video Card Questions Is there any difference in performance between a vanilla XFX 7900GT and a eVGA 7900GT? Is it better to get a vanilla version of a video card or one of those factory overclocked cards? Would a 7900GT come with a DVI cable for your monitor? Thanks in advance.

| there is no noticable diffence.... its like comparing one pencil to another. They both work teh same, they both are pencils, but one is usually a tiny bit better. Evga is the best company out there for video cards (besides ATI+Nivida) XFX usually has more DOA's and malfunctions. They perform the same tho.

| They won't come with a DVI cord. The overclocked versions are warranted to that speed. A normal card can go that fast but its not guaranteed.
