I'm planning to buy one of them but i read that the oem comes with plastic connectors while retail comes with gold. Anyway is there any other differences other than that? Such as performance? I don't really care about the software bundle, i just want the card :). Thx

I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that the only difference is the software bundle. But I could be wrong.

I think, other than cosmetic differences, to the computer they are the same. If I was to make a guess, I would say that Creative made cosmetic changes to make OEM less appealing.
