Zotac cards?

[Remilia]

I almost never hear about Zotac when people are talking about GPUs and it got me curious.

Is there a reason why it's pretty much never a recommendation? Is it because it's a trashcan brand?

 

I have one myself(don't think I had a choice), and it seems fine to me, although the heat is a bit more than I'd like, but that's more of a lack of aftermarket cooling I haven't addressed yet.

 

Seriously, feels like I have my head up my ass right now.

It's a cheap B brand but they have some alright cards like their reference cards.

Zotac is a great brand. My GT 220 and then GTX 560 were both Zotac and they both served me well.

They aren't always the best, they are not the worst.

They are like AsRock, not a very well known brand

Eh, so I guess it's like the middle child? Doesn't get a lot of praise, nor a lot of scolding.

Hopefully the one I own is one of the AMP versions so that I can get a solid overclock.

One thing you have to consider with buying any product is, not just the product itself, but also the company who manufactures it. The reason is because, why the product may be fine, if something were to happen to the product you wanna know that the company will honour the warranty of the product and provide you with good customer support.

Now, I know many of you will know this, but I just thought I'd mention it anyway just to give you all some food for thought, so to speak.
