I'm building a new PC and I'm torn between getting the PNY Overclocked Triple Fan RTX 5070 Ti and the ASUS Prime 5070 Ti. If I ignore the price factor, which graphics card would perform better? Also, I found a Gigabyte 5070 Ti WINDFORCE SFF Overclocked for $869; should I consider that instead?

I'd go with the PNY because ASUS has terrible customer support. Their products are generally solid, but if something goes wrong, it can be a nightmare. I haven't really seen major complaints about PNY, and since they focus on server hardware, they might offer better reliability.
That's funny because I've had the exact opposite experience. ASUS gear tends to break in less obvious ways, like overheating and cheap components that fail within a few years, while my older ASUS laptop has lasted nearly 15 years without issues.
