What's your current card? That is, do you need a second card that'll OC like crazy? If the original wasn't sold as an OC model, getting a great OCer for a second card won't help, and you should just save money and get a cheaper board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814127545
...because this one should have cooling as good as the Hawk's with a less aggressively binned chip.

Get my non-OCed Twin Frozr above, then. That should work almost as well as the Hawk.
