Hello,

Can anyone tell me if there is any difference in what appears to be ma= ny versions of this same card? =C2=A0And which one is recommended?

For example here in the first 4 links I see a "PNY" version,= an "EVGA" version and a "ZOTAC" version.


Not sure why there are variations of the same model. =C2=A0Ought to just ha= ve different models....

Anyway, thanks ahead.

Eric
