The Sapphire card



Sapphire managed to send a full-retail card in at the very last minute, so here it is.



Apart from the cool blue PCB there's very little difference between this and the reference card on the previous pages.



Sapphire uses the same memory chips and clocks its version in at, well, the same speeds, which is to be expected for a first-run design.

The cooler, too, is pretty quiet when under load.







One notable difference lies in the outputs. Sapphire adds in two DVI ports and TV-out - a far more sensible array than the twin-DisplayPort-toting reference design.
