What GTX 660 Ti brand is the best?

[Mosephuss]

I'm buying a GTX 660 Ti for my PC in a month or so and I don't know which one I want to choose. I want to have very stable cooling that can be quiet and also can handle overclocking without taking a beating. I don't plan on overclocking any time soon but when the 660 Ti gets a little old I'd want to have some overclocking until I upgrade, even though I plan on buying a much more powerful card when they are released (GTX 770, 870... etc). Here's the card that I'm looking at after reading http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/56432-gtx-660-ti-roundup-asus-evga-gigabyte-galaxy-msi.html
1: MSI Power Edition $309
2: Asus DC20 $309
3: Gigabyte OC 2GB $309

all 3 of those brands are good. At the end of the day it sometimes just comes down to which cooler you like the best, how noisy they are, what the warranty is like and the price which in this case is invalid.

I personally have an MSI 560Ti Hawk edition and haven't had any problems with it. In fact i was able to overclock it v nicely without any voltage increase so they're in my good books.
