Gpu Brands question

[solris]

Hey, I'm planning to upgrade to the 3080 when it drops, but Ive been out of the loop on which GPU brands are the go to for Canadians.  My friends tell me EVGA but I don't like the idea of shipping outside of Canada if any issues arise.
Can anyone give me any advice on which Brands safe picks for inside Canada. Thanks

every brand. do not pick gpus by brand. pick them by performance. watch revies on different models and how they perform against each otehr.

 

hardware unboxed does those kind of videos. check them out when partner models drop

in OP's case it's a valid concern as not every brand covers warranty locally

My bad i should have clarified a bit better, I always make sure to check performance before anything else, But what i'm mostly looking for is advice on which brands have some kind of facility in Canada, so in case of any kind of issue or RMA I'm not shipping internationally.
