Sapphire looks set to roll out another derivative of AMD's ATI Radeon HD 4890, as a picture of its Vapor-X edition has made its way online.

The card, pictured below, slots in below the existing range-topping ATOMIC edition and is believed to be stock-clocked at 850MHz for the core and an effective 3,900MHz for its 1GB of GDDR5 memory.

We'd expect decent overclocking headroom as a result of Sapphire's custom Vapor-X cooler, and the card's also equipped with a wide array of connectivity options. Moving away from the standard dual-DVI outputs found on most Radeon HD 4890 cards - including Sapphire's own ATOMIC edition - the Vapor-X will feature DVI, VGA, HDMI and DisplayPort, too.

There's no word on availability or pricing just yet, though.

I do like the wider choice of connectivity on these cards - if you're making a double-slot card so you've got all that real estate on the backplate why not use it ;) I assume this will only output to 2 monitors simultaneously though…?
