sapphire, msi are good brands, haven't had too much exp with ati cards. I prefer sapphire but msi and asus are also good.

Sapphire has often been rated best of the bunch for particular cards over several years in a number of fora.

I think some of the better factory cooling solutions should weigh heavily in any decision.
