D-Sub is the basic VGA connector(the blue one) DVI is for flat pannels, but most come with converts.

I have the EVGA one, but mine's PCIe. I've had great gamming with mine, but the Prolinx probably is just as good... Heck the cooling system is identical. Probably the exact same card under another name...

praetor what do you think?

are the cards equal?

lol, ive seen them can holders before, but the idiot who did that put the cd drive above the holder. and the cigarette lighters get VERY hot, and some lesser known brands (actually i think it was an unbranded one) caught fire but its thermaltake so must be good

Go with the cheaper one whichever that is, they both use the reference cooler anyways.
