Not too many people have over $500 to spend on a video card, but for those fortunate to be able to there are there are a fair number of options to pick from. When it comes to spending that much money on a video card there are two companies you'll want to take a closer look at: ASUS and EVGA.

Both designs differ greatly from the reference NVIDIA design and that was fine with us as we didn't miss any features of the reference card..."
