I did take the EVGA one or the MSI one. EVGA for the limited lifetime warranty. MSI one for the better fan design if your case can handle the extra hot air since it mostly blows it back into the case.

1st (MSI) is 880 Mhz
2nd (Zotac) is 850 Mhz
3rd (EVGA) is 900 Mhz

I'd knock out the Zotac and put the Asus 900 Mhz in for consideration. From all the reviews I have read, they are all just about nearly equal......and from those reads, I'd rank as follows.....Asus, MSI, EVGA simply because the reviewers seem to get the higher OC's and lowest temps on the Asus. From personal experience, I have installed 11 of the Asus ones in last 6 - 8 months and every one of them has hit 1000MHz while staying below 80C in a single card configuration, all case fans on slowest setting..... only one required a voltage tweak. Typical published speeds are 1020 - 1070 MHz for stable OC's the latter being an almost ridiculous 30+% OC

In SLI, after running a 1020 for several months, I been backing them off a bit to around 980.....not because of problems, just because it isn't needed and can keep the temps of that top card a lil bit lower.
