Questions about Golden sample?

Gainward really confused me with the Geforce 3 ti450. Well after looking at their other gold samples (all of which the golden sample has a extra vivo or tv out or dvi or extra software) but the difference between a gf3 ti450 gs n non gs is well i'm at a lost. A local store has a gf3 ti450 for the cheapest price $165, but i wonder if there is any difference between a gs n non gs. I know about the first revision gainward gf3 ti450 with 4.5 ns n different cooling mods, but is that not just a early revision that gainward quicky got rid of with the newer 4ns ones? I'm at a lost. thanks for replying in advance.😕
 
Do u think i should pay like $15 for the golden sample at newegg (shipping and tax) or go to my local store whcih i believe is not a golden sample but shuld be with 4.0 ns memory?
 
I have now bought three GF3 Ti200 Golden samples from Newegg at $175 shipped each.
All hit at least 260/560 with stock cooling, and completed 3dmark 2001 at those speeds, error free.

In comparison, my Visiontek (Bestbuy special $168 delivered), only hits 230/530.
