FUD Zilla published some pictures of the upcoming MSI R4890 Cyclone graphics card, this model uses Hi-C cpas, Solid State Chokes NCC PSF solid caps and a non-reference cooler. The clockspeeds of this card are unknown but the site speculates the core could be clocked at a whopping 1000MHz.
The new MSI HD 4890 will use Hi-C caps around the GPU which should enable it to have clean and stable power for the GPU, and it should imply that this one might be a very good overclocker. The rest of the known features include Solid State Chokes, also known as the anti buzz chokes, and NCC PSF solid caps.

The card will be cooled by MSI's well known SuperPipe cooler which uses 8mm heatpipes, and according to the picture which we managed to get, it will have four of these.
