I was wandering what should I do with this card.

It has hynix ram, have no idea about the ram timing. can this card flashable to something else?

nothing. don't buy it. you get what u paid for. 2 reasons:

1) The heatsink is so small that's a big problem, also no fan. You can't get much OC outta that thing. The PCB is too small to put on a better cooling HSF such as zalman or Silencer.

2) I distinctively remember something about the gigabyte ones not being able to be reflashed to a better bios.

Not to mention in your other post you said it was going in your Mothers PC. Does she game? if not there is no reason to be overclocking it anyway ;)
