Default XFX or eVGA 7900GTX

I recently went onto Newegg and i was wondering
should i get the eVGA 7900GTX or is there any reason on waiting for them to get the XFX 7900GTX in stock?

No reason to wait. Both are highly respectable Graphics card manufacturers

The eVGA one has 10MHz more for the memory speed than the XFX. Go for the eVGA and then show us how much fps you get in the games that you play when you install it!

you do realize, of course, that this gpu will be good for about 6 mos before the g80 comes out and blows it out of the water.
