Asus vs Gigabyte

So in a few months I'm planning on upgrading from my AMD 6850 to a Nvidia 760, but I can't decide on which I want to go for: Asus or Gigabyte. Both are meant to be extremely good at cooling, the Asus one is a bit cheaper at the moment so I was wondering if anyone has any advice? Is one slightly better in someway? Or should I just go for the cheaper one overall.

Just get the cheapest dual/triple fan cooler and you'll be fine.

I say gigabyte as the coolers get around the same temps. Asus has serious RMA issues. Gigabyte doesnt, thats the factor that puts me off asus products. I care about looks as from the side you barely see anything.

I really prefer the Gigabyte cooler, it's quieter than any of the ASUS cards I've had and personally ASUS is a pain to deal with if your RMAing your card

 

Yea, ASUS RMA is horrible. Took them 4 weeks to respond to my email and the issue is still not resolved.
