    EVGA GTX 460 Superclocked or Stock? Now with more questions!

    Looking at upgraging my 8800GT. Fairly sure I'm going with the EVGA EE GTX 460 (1gb). However is there really a difference in chip quality on the superclocked version or is it just marketing for those who don't overclock? I'll be overclocking it myself. Difference in price is about $22 more...
