As a newbie you're better off with the retail that provides all the hardware and software that you'll need.
For your second card you'll have enough experience to get the OEM/bulk version if you want to.
Flashing the bios of a video card is a trick gamers use to get more performance from it.
It can kill your card and it will kill the warranty. It's definitely done "at owner's risk".
