MSI cards are a good choice, usually come packaged with lots of software you may or may not want or need.

imbest123: GUESS who makes the PNY Nvidia cards? PNY sure doesn't - they are only a reboxer. They are made by - are you ready for this? MSI
The ONLY thing wrong with PNY is their terrible customer service. |

Eh? Where did you read that at? Both MSI and PNY manufacture their own cards.

The PNY GF4 Ti4400 that I installed in a customer's machine is a MSI-manufactured card.
http://www.3dgpu.com/modules/wfsecti...p?articleid=61 Maybe they have switched manufacturers for the FX line, I can't find anything to confirm or deny this. |

I have a PNY ti4200, and I think it's great. It was quite expensive though, I brought it around October last year and paid around £80 for an OEM version
Now you see why my site has buyers guides, lol.
