The MSI Gaming X, XFX GTR Black Edition and the ASUS STRIX are all good aftermarket models.

 

Otherwise, just get the cheapest one (except for the Gigabyte G1 Gaming). 

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

I was thinking about this one but on PCpartpicker it says with my case I might have some issues with the card being to big.  I have the Phanteks Eclipse p400 case.

I have the xfx rx 480 rs and my wife has the mid rx 480 reference. We both have p400 cases and have tons of room left for larger cards. Here's our setups.

PCPartpicker sometimes gives wrong info. I don't think there is any GPU that won't fit in your case.
