hello, since the 780's are having huge price cuts which one should i get? i've been having a hard time choosing the three cards featured in this newegg video

keep in mind that sound and cooling are not a problem for me. and i prefer reference cards over aftermarket ones.
Which one should i get?

They are both based upon the reference PCB design. The only ones by EVGA that aren't are the ones with the dual BIOSs. The ACX is a quieter cooling system and cools better, but doesn't look as cool as the reference design. Honestly I would go with the reference.

yes you can overclock the card yourself.

Company does the superclocked/FTW versions because the graphic card of those versions ususally have better conditioned chips that enable them to go higher clock than usual.
They are exactly the same card but some are just in better conditions.

You can always get a basic non superclocked version and overclock it to match the superclocked version.
However, it is not guaranteed that you would get the same kind of overclock potential as the superclocked version.
