I know you'll hate to hear this, but I'd recommend getting the genuine ATI card. ATI designed the card, just like nVidia designed the Geforce line. This would be like buying a card made by nVidia, although they don't manufacture their own. Other than that, I believe Sapphire used to do a lot of OEM work with ATI, that could be your other option.

Sapphire, Powercolor, and Hercules are hardly "no name" manufacturers. I think ATI is being somewhat fussy about who they license to make cards.
