Which one should i get? I am leaning towards the leadtek cause it only needs a 300 watt powersupply. But the MSI has a huge fan on it will it be better then the other ones and how many PCI slots will it take up. and which one would be better for cooling i know the msi would be but it takes up alot of space but between the xfx and the leadtek.

i would go with the leadtek one, it has the highest clocks. But, with them high clocks comes a high price.

Price doesnt matter until it goes over 200 which it is close but i was leading toward that one but i want more opinions before i buy.
 
well, i would assume the power consumption of the three cards would be roughly the same, since they are the same cards, just different manufacturers tweaking them. The XFX and the Leadtech one would both only use one slot, but the MSI one uses a two slot cooler.
 
well the xfx one has the highest rating, that might help you choose. But the msi has vivo if you need that. Also, the msi and the leadtek comes with a game (serious sam 2).

So the MSI uses the slot that you put it in and the one next to it or does it use the slot it is in and the next two that are next to it.

well i dont think i need vivo but i might someday so its between the leadtek and MSI i still cant decide. the leadtek has the highest clocks but the msi has a bigger cooler to overclock more but i still cant decide.
 
well first think are you goin to overclock alot, or in tha case do you want to overclock alot. Then if yes msi if no leadtek.

Well i wont overclock much more then it already is so i think ill go with the leadtek. thanks for the help.
 
get the cheapest one. clocks do matter.. but not all that much. you won't gain many FPS with that small amount of a clock increase. if you want to get a better card, get a better gpu, not the same one at higher clocks.
whatever you get, get the cheapest one of the gpu you choose.
