Does it matter?

Well I was looking into buying one of the nvidia 7900 gts...and I couldn't really decide which one quite floated my boat. I've narrowed it down to these two

BFG

and

XFX
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150139

Now the XFX is an extreme edition and has 1500 memory clock and 520 core clock where as the BFG only has 1360 memory clock and 475 memory clock....now the only reason I can't decide on which one is that hte BFG has a lifetime warranty where as the XFX only has a two year warranty....

So are the XFX's a pretty good brand of card or should i play it safe and get the lesser card wiht the life time warranty?

I would go for the XFX, cheaper and 2 year warranty should be more than enough. Ether way you could probably OC a little. But i doubt you will need to OC a card like that.

get the BFG one if you don't plan on o/cing. if you plan on o/cing get whatevers cheaper because they all have the same voltages and you'll ultimately be able to o/c them to the same clocks.
