Which card should I get the 7870 or 7850? 7870 is £10 more.

I do plan to overclock the cards and I think the 7870 only has one fan, so will it be okay for OC'ing?

Thanks for the quick reply.

The 7870 is actually £209 with delivery where as the 7850 has free delivery.

7870 still the way to go for £20 more?
 
If you care about noise at all I would get the 7850, the 7870 will give you better performance though.

I had a stock 6870 and it was fairly loud, returned it and spent an extra 40 for an MSI twin frozr 2 (after shipping and restocking fee)
