This is my own experience, but for this generation I've been having a lot of bad luck with GPUs
Bought a 5700XT from gigabyte and it suffered from random freezes/memory issues, RMA'd, worked fine for a couple of months, same issue again and now outside warranty.
Got an EVGA 3060 Ti second hand from a friend, worked fine but then started making this croak like sound every time the fans ramp up.
Decided to just get another 3060 Ti brand new from ASUS and one of the fans made a grinding noise not one month into operation. RMA'd now good.
It really depends sometimes. All of this trouble with new gen cards but my old Gigabyte GeForce GTX560s still run great.
Imho, I'm still a fan of Asus for Nvidia. For amd, I'd go power color or sapphire. Those seem to be the best ones.
