I am looking into buying 3x 1060s for my rig from but unsure which is best to get brand wise and how much that even matters?

For example I can get any of the below from my local store

ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 Overclocked Dual-Fan 6GB GDDR5 Video Card $279.99 (open box$223)

EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5 SSC GAMING Video Card w/ ACX 3.0 Cooling $299

MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X 6GB GDDR5 Video Card $309 (Open box $263)

Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 AMP! Edition 6GB GDDR5 Video Card w/ Dual-Fan IceStorm Cooling $269

Is there a chart somewhere that shows best brands for mining? With all the different varieties out there does it matter which I go with or if I mix and match? Any I should steer clear from and why?

If the warranty time is the same fpr all cards, if I were you, I would choose ASUS.
Zotac draw too much from the wall.

You should focus on the ones with the best RMA and more warranty time.
