Default Which brands of geForce FX 5900 (non-ultra) besides PNY to stay away from? XFX?

I've decided to buy the FX5900 geForce card. I'm going for the non-ultra
verion with 128 RAM and DVI output.
I've heard that PNY brand is a good one to stay away from. Are there any
other crappy ones? How about XFX? BFG? Asylum?
I know MSIs are good but for some reason they are quite a bit more expensive
than the rest...

Thank you,
Luke

Luke,
I've had my XFX 5900 for a month now with no problems to report. I'm
not overclocking it or anything so I can't comment on that aspect. But
overall I'm pleased with its performance.

In my experience, there's no reason at all to avoid PNY...
