Hey, just a quick question, I'm looking to upgrade from my GTX 560 to a 7870 soon. At first I thought about getting this MSI 7870 HAWK, but after looking at reviews it seems that users are having problems with crashes and the BSOD.

Then I saw this Gigabyte 7870 with the same core clock speed, for 30$ less, and has better reviews with few comments about crashing.

I am not opposed to getting the MSI Hawk especially because it is military grade and has many great features, but if it has loads of issues I would like to steer clear. I do plan to overclock this card.
What are youur opinions? Do you think it's just a coincidence that many people had issues, or their computers couldn't handle the card, etc? Or should I just get the Gigabyte?
