Lastly, whats all this talk of the 7970 PCB... Does that mean they're essentially gimped 7970s? If I don't get the 7970 PCB should I RMA it and try to get that? or is that mainly for people who want to waterblock it? Will it affect overclock?

A HD 7970 PCB means better quality components - VRM, capacitors, chokes . Better stability while overclocking . you can see the card here. if you get from newegg you will get the HD 7970 PCB based card. newegg user reviews clearly confirm it.
