    Different companies, that's all. They may have minutely different specs, but so little a difference, it wouldnt matter.

    In some cases it matters a lot. Different cards can have different specs, different bundle and even not work at all compared to other cards (like my XFX7800GS OC Extreme. All companies had a decent overclocked 7800GS but XFX... they screwed up on that one)
    In other cases, it doesn't really matter (except bundle of course, but bundles are pointless anyway. You basically pay extra for stuff you don't want)

    Bottom line is, check the details before you buy.

    Some, like my old cards, are over 80-100 mhz faster, but some are only 10-15 sometimes...

    There's also the company's reliability to consider. Nvidia is the one who makes the chips but they manufacture the thing. If they screw up then they screw your product up.

    Also different manufacturers GPU's might use different producer memory that might have a difference for those who overclock their GPU.
