It'll be a reference card so it'll certainly run okay. The biggest difference is quality of parts and quality control.

A cheap card may be slightly more likely to be a dud out of the box. If they cut corners on some components the image might not be as sharp as it could be.

Definately use the latest official (NOT a leaked beta) Detonator reference driver.
