Just got the MSI 7970 today after every other card I was going to buy showed sold out on newegg! They went so fast! But I love this card, way better than 2 6950s! Wish I could have gotten the Gigabyte Tri fan 7970! Maybe I will buy that aftermarket cooler if its easy to install.

Hey guys, just got my 7950. I wanna overclock but I wanna do it right. Any tips? How did you all approach overclocking these things? And what fan speeds do you run? Any higher than 60 and it is really loud for me.
