Graphics card makers are wise to overclocking.
They select the best binned chips for use in their factory overclocked offerings so they can get a better price.
One might get lucky with a stock card and get a good overclock. But, do not count on it.
I think the smallish price premium for a guaranteed overclock and a factory warranty is a fair value.
