Well when it comes down to brand it's all a matter of personal preference really, based on differend reasons. The actual hardware is the same really. I prefer eVGA or XFX, so I would definitely pick XFX over Gainward. Those are some crazy prices for a GTS though, I got my GTX for $660.

Any name brand will perform. Me personally, I prefer BFG and EVGA. My last card was a BFG and my current card is an EVGA. I prefer EVGA mainly because they have a very comprehensive warranty that even allows for an RMA if you overclock or use an aftermarket cooler, and the Step-Up program is pretty cool too!

Good luck!

You can also get MSI for $750. These have a three year warranty. and is the 8800GTS i'll be getting within the next week.

If you haven't heard of them they are trust worthy, got my ram from them earlier in the week as better deal than what i could get wholesale through one of my friends. and brother got a 19" Samsung monitor from them in September.
