refurb x850 pro for 268.00 -whats the overclocking potential.

new retail x800pro vivo 265.00 -im watching a thread about possibly hard modding this to open 16 pipes. Im willing to mod (voltmod too) as i did with my current card.
-right now my high score in 3dmark05 is 5985. I would like to better that which i think a new processor can help with. I will be watercooling and putting on ramsinks.
-so im looking for bang for your buck- i play a lot of battlefield 2 and hl2 farcry, will play f.e.a.r when it comes out. THANKS ALL
