Which is best?

Just a quick question..

Which do we think is best out of the following 2 cards:

Point of View 6800GS AGP 256MB
http://www.pointofview-online.com/GF6800GSagp.html

or

XFX GeForce 6800 GS 256 MB DDR3 8X AGP
http://www.xfxforce.com/web/product/...ationId=118067

I ordered the 2nd one, but it's on backorder for 2 months, so am now looking at the first one. Decisions, Decisions.

Are Point of View a good manufacturer. Never heard of them before!

Thanks

well your second link didnt really work, but i found it. xfx has a clock speed of about 50mhz higher, which is easily overclockable. so watever is cheaper will be fine.

actually see what kinda warranty the first one has
