The Effect of BCLK when OC'ing Watercooled?

This question is mostly focussed on OC'ing GPU's. There are a lot of variations of the same GPU when you get a stock one. But when OC'ing, what is the effect of buying a card with a higher BCLK than others? (which are usually more expensive than the others). Also what is the effect of the Boost Clock?

I think they are better binned, they pick the best GPUs to OC just like that G1 gaming from GIGABYTE.

Yea but how do you pick/know which is the best? I hear that G1 Gaming is good, but also the EVGA's, Asus, MSI. It's like everyone has a preference.....

I look for temps, noise, OC results and see which card has less negative reviews on retail sites.
