Upside is that you get faster clocks meaning faster performance, downside is that if you really don't know what you are doing, you could brick the bios. However the card does have dual bios, the switch is located beside the Crossfire port. I suggest you just OC it, you get better clocks and you are in more control of what is happening. Good Luck OC'ing. :))
