OK Guys,

so I am getting my rig tomorrow. But last minute dilemmas never leave me like between the powercolor hd 5850 vs saphire 5850.

I just need to know the following:

1. Warranty and customer support - which is better?
2. Performance - Which is better?

Cost wise the powercolor is cheaper but does it make a lot of difference?...
 
Get Sapphire unless the price diff is too big
Warranty is pretty good, handled by Aditya Infotech, all over the country

I dont know how good is Powercolor RMA

Is it so urgent.:huh:

Guess it is for gaming and if you intend to save 1000 bucks i guess 2 days delay isnt that much. You get 1 yrs additional warranty in Sapphire so you can get better resale value if sold in warranty period after 2-2.5yrs.

Get the cheaper one. If it will fail..it will/should immediate. 2+ years..is long. I have 2 Powercolor units. Seem fine.

one should also consider the resale value
Sapphire makes sense for 1 year extra warranty and good RMA support

Well said,
OP, it doesnt hurt to wait a couple of days more, since its a big and a long term investment(i mean atleast 1 year min)
ITWares has a very good deal and he is damn trusty dealer, check with others as well, if u get a better deal
