XFX AMD video cards. A good brand? (lemmy.world)

I am going to buy myself a new video card for Christmas. When I look online I see that XFX is usually the best priced card. Are they a good company? Are their cards made well? How about their warrantee service?

I had six XFX RX 470 4GB in a mining rig for a while. Took like three years for the fans to start failing, but you can buy replacement fans (which I did). I want to say that half the cards survived after five years of 24/7/365.26 constant high temps.

I've also got a "used-not-used" takeoff XFX RX 480 8GB in an enclosure now to run my laptop through. Haven't had any problems with it.
