Personally i prefer eVGA, but don't nvidia get them to manufacture theirs anyway?

eVGA and BFG are generally good bets. Avoid XFX and PNY.

Well you will pay a Premium but if you can find a Gainward Golden Sample (Stopped selling in US), or Asus. Other ones that are pretty much just as good are EVGA and BFG.

I think buying a Golden Sample is a waste of money...either pick up an Ultra for $400 off the For Sale forum or buy a GT and flash the bios to a Golden Sample. I think Asus uses a special design that prevents you from installing NV5 Silencer, so I wouldn't recommend it if you think you ever would want to do this.
