OMG a few grams heavier, only makes them run cooler dude. Looks like you
have made up your mind anyway. The BFG cards use premium chips and can
easily run at higher clock speeds. The Leadtek site makes mention that the
cards have good cooling so they can be over clocked, I run my basic Leadtek
6800 at 380/780 and it runs at same temps as default settings.
