I was reading a thread where it was mentioned the sapphire only has a 128bit interface compared to the OEM ATI had 256bit.

The OEM ATI card is not much more than the sapphire...I'm sure you should see some benifit to using the ATI based card over the sapphire, although I cannot say HOW big of a difference it would make.

its the same thing, they are made at the same factory, same cards
and newegg has cheapo cards

newegg only sucks for the brand new cards.
