    Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 Vapor-X Video Card Review

    Posted on Tuesday, November 03 2009 @ 16:10:10 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck


    Sapphire has added their Vapor-X vapor chamber cooling technology to the Radeon HD 5870 series and has launched a doozy of a card today. Read on to see how this factory overclocked Radeon HD 5870 does with a superior cooling solution in place to keep the RV870 core nice and cool. You might just be surprised to see how well this card does!

    Quote: "From the second we saw the Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 Vapor-X graphics card we fell in love with it. The card stands out from the crowd and has a bad boy appearance to it that the reference card just doesn't have. The best part about the Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 Vapor-X is that the cooler actually works. We witnessed an 8dBA decrease in fan noise and an insane 18C drop in temperatures while gaming. The small 2-4% factory overclock gave a slight boost in performance and in every single benchmark we ran the Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 Vapor-X was faster than a stock Radeon HD 5870 video card, albeit by only 1-6FPS depending on the benchmark in question..."
