The PC card is a modified PCI bus, and there's no way they could have done that without doing lots and lots (64-ish, I believe) pinouts from the internal PCI bus.

www.innovatek.de is the best place for overclocking kits. The only thing is you'd need some sort of thermal adhesive (plus you'd have to use a GPU waterblock) to get that to work.
