OK so this is the best...some form of the eVGA 8800 GTS G92 512 card.
 
Now, according to Newegg's prices, what would you guys recommend?
 
512-P3-N845-AR - $300 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130337
512-P3-N841-AR (OCed version) - $270 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130325
512-P3-N841-AR - $260 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 814130325R
 
Planning on purchasing 2 identical cards to go into an eVGA 780i motherboard which will be powering a 30" Dell.  Money is an object...basically I don't want to waste it.
 
Plan is to do some video card OCing at a driver level with RivaTuner, but not making the cards unstable in any way.
 
Thanks for any and all input!  :)

I would go with the second one considering the massive price premium they want for the first. The first one is only offering 8 more mhz on the core and 4 mhz on the memory and yet they want $30 more and even more if you take into account the additional $30 MIR. The 3rd one is an open box and I would just avoid them IMO.

 

edit: didn't see that the second was already discounted to 269.99. Either way, my advice still stands as is.

Yeah, what he said.

They probably won't mail both rebates to one address.
 
I like evga, but would also consider an MSI card.  Cheaper and comes with the Witcher.  Or buy one of each, getting you both rebates.
