Ya know, ones like that. What are a complete list of them? I looked on google and didn't find anything...I'm sure one of you will find it easily, but I didn't. Help?
 
What is your definition of "tweaker"? If you are talking about different brands of video cards, go to places like http://www.newegg.com to find a good selection of different brands..... The companies you listed are just different brands of graphic cards and not necessarily "tweakers"......
 
Well, the way I see it, GeForce and ATI are the Main card makers, brands like XFX, BFG and eVGA "tweak" them, making them better. Who does this the best, from what I hear, XFX makes the fastest graphics card ever. Thing is, they don't make them, the "tweak" Them. they tweaked the Geforce 8800 GTX as a "factory Overclock" hence, the "Tweak"
 
thats half true...

ati and nvidia make the core processors for the cards, aka the chipset, then the other companies like bfg make the boards the overclock them * mostly bfg * and add coolers, depending on the brand u will get a really nice cooling fan or not, i know saphire is prolly a really good ati card maker, and bfg is the equibalent of them but for nvidia.
 
the most cost effective way is to buy a cheap version and then buy a aftermarket cooler and overclock it yourself.
 
Gigabyte has recetly teamed up with Zalman with cards that come pre-installed fan........

EVGA, BFG and XFX to me seem like they would have the best coolers and features...... You do get exceptions with other companies.....

NVidia and ATI design the GPUs and contract out the manufacturing of them, but only ATI sells their own 'brand' cards. NVidia doesn't produce it's own cards (besides the engineering sample and reference cards that they send away). XFX, Sapphire, BFG and the like are partners that buy the GPUs and put them on a card that is usually identicle to the reference card but with their own cooler and sometimes overclocked.
