Which one do people recommend for eth mining? The 380 looks to have lower power consumption and 4GB

What would be the best setup?
Windows 7 or Linux? BAMT? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Gw7YPYgMgNNU42skibULbJJUx_suP_CpjSEdSi8_z9U/mobilebasic?pli=1 ?
Which Catalyst drivers
Is it possible to undervolt/overclock these cards?

I will be using an ASUS M5A97 https://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards/M5A97_LE_R20/ motherboard with xfx 1000W PSU http://xfxforce.com/en-us/products/xts-series-platinum-full-modular/xts-series-1000w-psu-p1-1000-belx

Does anyone have a some optimal settings to use?
