A lot of people are having issues with the SSC version. Including me, I have owned them for a total of 5 days and I already had to send them to EVGA for replacement. Major artifacting, even at reference speeds. I can't play Oblivion for more than 5 minutes (NOT a heat issue). I heard something about maybe, the SSC version tripping the over voltage circuit and therefor cutting power to the GPU (how accurate this is I have no idea), which would explain the lockups and screen going black (though, the screen has never gone black, just locked my system up).
There are lots of complaints about this on the EVGA forums, but the KO version seem to work just fine. I'd advise staying away from these cards for now.
