Ok, I've decided to get a X800 Pro as soon as next payday comes along. But what is a good company to get it from? Gigabyte, ATi, Sapphire etc? I imagine that the cards are all pretty much the same, but what are some downsides to the different manufactures?

If you want to take some of the guess work out of it read some reviews where they compare the different brands.

Getting a Genuine ATI us usually the best bet to take the guesswork out of it, goto pricewatch.com and find the best deal reguardless if its a Genuine ATI, or if its another manufacturer, and use common sense, i have heard that Gigabyte is a pain in the ass if you have to RMA, but ive never had to do it so i cant say for sure. Im sure some of the guys will have an oppinion on which manufacturer to go with.
