If you want to save a lot of money, buy a Sapphire X800 GTO2 256 PCI-e.

I just got mine and soft-modded it, and now it runs at almost the same power as x850xt pe.

I'm also an uber noob to flashing but the guides I used made it easy for me to do it, first time flashing and I succeeded.

I agree. You'll save yourself a ton of money.

I have an Abit X850XT PE and it runs very nicely, only donwfall is the loss of a PCI Slot, but i have others free. Really though, it comes down to Brand preference.
