Question for my new build

I am building my new system, current specs so far are in my sig...but I am trying to decide on a video card. I have narrowed it down to these three cards and they fit within my budget. Any suggestions on which one would best fit with my system. This is a budget gaming machine. Nothing top of the line, just a medium system...

personally i wouldn't go for the saphire one because it has no ratings or reveiws (unless you know someone who has one or you had one before and it was good), and eVGA has way more reveiws than MSI which means lots of people are buying it probably because its good. Thats just my opinion though
 
I would get the x800gt and do a little more research to find out if anyone has had sucess unlocking the additional 4 piplines on that board like can be done on the x800gto. I would also consider the 6800 instead of the 6600.
I'm going thru the same decision myself and think the x800 is the better way to go but thats just me.
 
Not to mention the ease of use of ati tool.

anyway, the 6600GT is fine and all, but it won't play games half as good as an overclocked and maybe unlocked X800GT or GTO (maybe even GTO2)
 
Please enlighten me...

Why would the X800GT be a better card, in your opinion?

The Core Clock and Memory Clock speeds are higher on the 6600GT than on the X800GT.
The Memory is the same size and type (128mb GDDR3)
Yet the Memory Interface on the 6600GT is 128-bit, and the X800 is 256-bit

How would one overclock a Vid card anyways?
