Thus it's only waste money if you want to overclock it more. If you buy, plug it in and leave it as it is, it's good enough.

but then again, the preclocked card already OC'ed to the best speed that it can achieve and the manufacturer already bundled with it the best heatsink that it needed. for manual overclocking, you need the time to test out the best speed, and also might spend more and heating solutions

Well it still depends on many factors. Luck is also one of it.
i rememebered me and my fren bought identitical X1600 that is factory overclocked. But mine can still overclocked further while he's stuck at that speed without encountering artifacts
