No not an nVidia or ATI one, but more of a what name card maker do you like, dislike such as PNY or eVGA. I wanted to know what you guys though of some of them good bad and ugly. I am getting and FX5900 but after PNY's TI melt downs I really don't want to be geting one through them.

Last three nVidias I've bought for people were through Chaintek. Haven't had a single problem with any of them.

I've got multiple Gainward cards with no issues and I've got an eVGA in my main box that's been running quite well...

PNY makes a good card and they have a pretty good Warrenty. When my first one blew up they replaced it with no problems at all. Turn around time was about a week.

Or Gainward. Stay the hell away from Asylum though.

1 Chaintek
3 Leadtek
2 Gainward
1 eVGA
1 PNY

Anyone else have any more suggestions?

You bastard! I kid...

That would be nice but short of Ebaying for it, I will never be able to get one of those. Do you have a second choice oh rusted one?

ASUS makes the best mainstream FX5900 (and Ultra) card. Their cooling solution is really good. MSI's cooling solution is also pretty good.. but the wiring is very messy and makes it look like a child designed it.

Gainward makes the best non-Ultra FX5900's but they come at a premium price.

I've had two PNYs and one MSI. None of them have failed me.
There was a signature here... it's gone now.
