Aside from price and bundle is there really any difference in these cards?

PNY VCG88GTSXPB, XFX PVT80GTHF9, Gigabyte GV-NX88S640H-RH, EVGA 640-P2-N821-AR, Asus EN8800GTS, BFG BFGR88640GTSE & MSI NX8800GTS-T2D640E

Any better or worse than the others for whatever reason?

It is my understanding that all 8800 series cards are built on boards provided by Nvidia so differences between cards should be minimal.

I think the biggest differences between the various 8800GTS cards are price and warranty length.

QFT.

The real difference is warranty...I prefer eVga & XFX.

That's about what i figured in which case namebrand for quality can pretty much be discarded. I've been eyeing the Evga card but i must say the Asus EN8800GTS offers one hell of a bundle as well, and at the lowest price i've seen anywhere dipping <$400.

Yep, they're all pretty much the same.

I'd recommend the evga one just for their good reputation on customer service, a lifetime warranty, and you can OC without worry as their warranty allows it. Mine also came with a free copy of dark messiah might and magic, which was nice.
