Default [EB] Sapphire HD4670 GDDR4 Review


Quote:
Faster and quieter sounds like the contents of the shopping list of any potential graphics board buyer, so can it live up to these promises? Let's give Sapphire's latest offering a look.

We're still waiting on pricing information for this board, but provided it can hit a decent level then Sapphire's Radeon HD 4670 GDDR4 could prove to be the cream of its particular crop.

After OCing it's noticeably faster compared to a stock 4670 so worth a look if you want a card that doesn't need PCI express power at all.

Edit: Actually, looks like it could be a 120mm. I've got a 92mm on mine and the shroud is as large as that fan.

Not a bad GPU for a low-to-mid-range rig.

Would be good to see it compared to other similar Nvidia offerings etc.
