    Can you help me out which i should choose

    Gigabyte 460gtx(1mb) from pix
    or
    EVGA 460gtx(1mb) from HWVS.

    No worries about the shipping as i'm gonna side order it from a friend who would be ordering other things so no shipping charges from me.

    Just want to know which is good at the same time is quieter.

    Gigabyte has better cooling (not necessarily quieter, although it'll probably work out that way) but the Palit 1GB Sonic on HWVS is over a tenner cheaper yet has higher clock speeds. By comparison the poor stock-speed EVGA isn't even in the running! :p

    I bought the asus cuda version of the card and have to say im impressed. Two copper pipes are excellent for keeping it cool, i managed to OC it to 900mhz on stock voltages and it never exceeded 70c even in furmark
