Do brand models make a difference in performance?

So i'm a noob and in the market for a new GPU and have gone with the 580, however different brands of 580 are different prices e.g the PNY 580 is the cheapest i can find and EVGA are the most expensive with brands such as Zotac and Asus somewhere in the middle. I was wondering if this has anything to do with performance or how well they overclock, would i see the same results from the PNY and have a good a chance of getting a good OC as the others?

Sorry if this seems like a stupid questiln but as i said i'm a noobie, so bare with me guys.:)
 
Ah okay, thank for the great replies.

Would i be fine going with the PNY580 then or is it worth paying the extra £20 for a Zotac?
Edit: Being drawn towards a Asus GeForce GTX 580 782MHz 1536MB PCI-Express HDMI (DirectCU II) looks like a good overclocker.
