I'm using the gigabyte GV-R787OC-2GD. I bought it from microcenter for 250$. It is very easy to use - compared to my 7970 cards.
Hashrate: 450 kh/s (scrypt)
I run it with 1.1 mV instat of 1.219V (?) (msi afterburner).
CGminer 3.11
I: 19-20
thread currency: 24000
shaders: 1280
enginge: 1080
memclock: 1435
The temperature is usually 68-71C (card is directly above my power supply, but no other card is next to this one)
$250 at micro? return that shit. mine was 209 with a $10 rebate. Tell them to match price, and get difference. or Get it from frys.... (if you can)
