I was an EVGA customer for many years. I’m looking to buy a new GPU soon to replace my 2080Ti. What brands would you consider when making a new GPU purchase and why?

This is my own experience, but for this generation I’ve been having a lot of bad luck with GPUs
Bought a 5700XT from gigabyte and it suffered from random freezes/memory issues, RMA’d, worked fine for a couple of months, same issue again and now outside warranty.
Got an EVGA 3060 Ti second hand from a friend, worked fine but then started making this croak like sound every time the fans ramp up.
Decided to just get another 3060 Ti brand new from ASUS and one of the fans made a grinding noise not one month into operation. RMA’d now good.
It really depends sometimes. All of this trouble with new gen cards but my old Gigabyte GeForce GTX560s still run great.
Imho, I’m still a fan of Asus for Nvidia. For amd, I’d go power color or sapphire. Those seem to be the best ones.
That sounds about right. Gigabyte’s known as being an inferior choice much of the time, and ASUS has been cheaping out lately and getting lazy. They’re just coasting on their name recognition as of late, unfortunately.
After that snafu with their power supplies and exploit riddled Boises, yes, I’ll be avoiding gigabyte for a while.
Asus… Yeah, feels like they’re cutting corners
