Now that EVGA does not product Nvidia cards anymore I don’t find much reason to purchase Nvidia over Amd now.

evga has a following because being a U.S based company, they had the best warranty service. the major brick and mortar taiwanese brand giants (Asus/MSI/Gigabyte) have a storied history about how stingy they are about RMAs for expensive products.
