Accidently bought the Asus direct cu II non-top 280x. Much difference?

[Mr_Frink]

Just wondering if this will overclock as well? Im assuming its exactly the same bar the small factory overclock on the top version?

There won't be much of a difference aside from clock rates, you may get 1-5 extra frames per second with the top card, but you could overclock it yourself and surpass that with any luck. I'm assuming they both use the same DirectCu II coolers so I really doubt there's a difference, if anything the one you bought will run a bit cooler since it is clocked lower.
