Most of the better cards come packaged with a benchmark of some sort. At least one of mine came with 3DMark 11. I use that.

You don't need to pay for FRAPS. The new Beta version of MSI Afterburner does everything FRAPS does and more for free.

It should be fine, I've done a lot reading on this and thankfully there is a lot of good instruction on it. I've been using MSI AB to overclock and GPU Tool to test the stability.
Even if the worst were to happen, it's only a 4850. I'm going to be getting a Toxic 6950 (really just waiting for the 7000's to come out, but I have to have something now to handle the current games and upcoming one's. The 6950 with shaders unlocked and overclocked should be good enough for 1920 X 1080) so the one I have is something to learn on.
