Basically, they're all the same.
The Albatron is the cheapest so get that.
Any slight differences in clock speed do not justify the extra cash.
And never buy "superclocked" or "factory overclocked" cards, just DIY if you're into that.
Hope this helps.
P.S. Good choice on the card.

520W will be fine for that system, even with future upgrades.
If you go SLI, that's the time to think about upgrading the PSU.
