TC Mag found three photos of an upcoming Radeon HD 4850 X2 graphics card from Sapphire, this card features two Radeon HD 4850 GPUs and is expected to arrive sometime in November.

Seen below is a Sapphire-made Radeon HD 4850 X2 which features a probably custom dual-fan, dual-slot cooling system and (apparently) 2GB of GDDR3 memory, double the amount of a 'stock' 4850 X2.

Also equipped with two 55nm RV770 chips, the card offers the power of 1600 Stream Processors, requires extra power via two (one 6- and one 8-pin) PCIe connectors, has a 256-bit memory interface, CrossFireX support and a nice blue PCB.
