abit isnt bad but not so great. Asus or Msi are preety good. asus is worth the high quality.

They were posted at the same time if you look, might be a forum error.

Anyways brand names don't realy matter for X800's, they all use the same cooling.

Just go for either the cheapest or the best bundle.

I had posted this in the ATI forum, but it's worth repeating...

I bought a Sapphire X800 XT (Not PE) from GameVe.com for $474. Stock speeds on the XT are 500/500, PE is 520/560. Right out of the box I was able to get 530/588, exceeding PE speeds. I'm hindered by the stock cooling, but that should be fixed by the addition of the Arctic Cooler that's coming next week.

Based on my experience Sapphire is an excellent choice. This is my first ATI card that wasn't an ATI brand, and I couldn't be happier.

Good luck!
