In the configurations there is now EVGA nvidia cards. I was wondering about if it is maybe a overclocked version or something, because it's extra money for the EVGA name.

evga has longer/better warranty/quality and support, those probably have lifetime warranty

performance will be the exact same, no matter the brand, they are all Nvidia reference cards at this point. if you plan on running this graphics card longer than your DS warranty, then yes, otherwise no.

hold on tho those are 275 gtx only. you don't want that to begin with, I mean it was a great card, but it doesn't support dxll.

as justin said if the lifetime warranty is something that will be useful for you then pay the extra, otherwise the performance is the same.

super clocked should have lifetime warrany, but, yeah it is a total waste of money, all vanilla versions will overclock higher than SC speeds.. for free.
