Sapphire HD4870 1GB Toxic Review @ OCC - 01/08/09 10:00 AM

A news post would be great.

OCC has published a new review of the *Sapphire HD4870 1GB Toxic*

Here is a quote from the review:
Quote:
"To overclock the Sapphire HD4870 Toxic, I started off by raising the GPU
speed a little at a time and testing to make sure it was stable. If it was,
I added some more to it until I could not run any stability tests. Once I
hit the wall for the GPU speed, I used the same method for the memory until
I hit the maxumim stable. The walls I hit were 845 on the core and 1066 on
the memory. For a card that was already overclocked, the additional speed
gained was very nice. Also while testing the card overclocked, the
temperatures remained around 67C degrees with the fan speed controlled by
the Catalyst Control Center, which is fairly cool for an HD4870 that is
running even at stock speeds. By bumping up the fan speeds, the temperatures
plummet down into the 50C range at 55C."
