hey i am interested in purchasing one, could you explain to me the differences between superclocked, signature, ftw models.. and now theres the superclocked signature, and + models too..

and would you be interested in me purchasing just the card without borderlands? (as i already have the game pre ordered) thank you for your replies.

also could you explain to me what i would have to do to be able to keep the warranty with EVGA as i am not purchasing from retail.

thank you and have a good day.

EVGA does a 3 yr card/serial warranty now http://www.evga.com/articles/00671/ so you don't need to transfer anything from my understanding. Great card btw, might be interested after I get my paycheck if the second one is still around. btw, how is the heat on these things?

From what i read before

Different between Original to Classified Edition can be found here

Reference one ($500) has 4 PWM phases and NVIDIA's design.

Superclocked ($520) still has 4 PWM phases and NVIDIA's design, but is slightly factory overclocked.

Signature ($530) has 5 PWM phases (the more phases, the further you can overclock theoretically, but in real life there are a lot of factors so more PWM phases doesn't mean you will be able to do higher OC, but you will most likely will)
Signature also has EVGA design with high flow bracket (like 3ºC less)

FTW and FTW 4GB ($570 and $630) have 8 PWM phases and vapor chamber cooling (cools the GPU a bit better).

Classified ($660) has 14 PWM phases.

"+" means it comes with EVGA backplate.

IMO the card with the best feature/price ratio is the Signature (or Signature+), I think anything further than that is a waste of money cause even though you can OC them a bit more, it won't really make much difference ingame.
