indeed! It comes with shitty games too like joint operations which I hopefully should be able sell for £30 or w/e recouping the extra costs. besides this is a decent card and can be overclocked past 500mhz (from 430). I wont try it since i'm not a graphics whore and it should be fast enough anyway

I wouldn't bother OC'ing just yet dude, its not needed and it could damage the card (or at least make it last less time..). I wouldn't overclock until you need too!

btw, it's nearly impossible to damage a card by overclocking if you don't raise/mod the core voltage and use a good watercooler. My overclocked card doesn't even reach 52°C on load, 34°C idle 
! Stupid thing!
