do not spend the extra $ 20.00 on the OC version when you can overclock it yourself . the hd7850 be the best bang for you buck card out there right now . especially at $ 239.99 its a great buy . I be hesitant after read all of the other review with the screen flickering and everything but I have not have any problem with the card . grant , I have not try overclock it yet but then again I really do not need to .
