SAPPhIRE Technology was first formed as a manufacturer and global supplier of graphics cards when ATI (now a division of AMD) adopted the Add-in Board partner (AIB) model for delivering its technology to market. SAPPhIRE has consistently been the market leader with its graphics products. More recently the SAPPhIRE product range has been extended to include a broad range of mainboards and a number of solutions including the award-winning SAPPhIRE EDGE Series of Mini PCs.
This year, SAPPhIRE celebrates 10 years of trading, bringing our successful mix of innovation and customer satisfaction to the global market. During that time we have introduced a number of innovations to the graphics market that are still reflected in our product line-up today.

Love Sapphire, they seem to be one of the most reliable ATI partners out there. They're always one of the first ones I recommend (Sapphire, PowerColor, Asus).
Have a Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 1GB (heatpipe edition). It had overheating problems for a long time because of incorrectly applied TIM (seems to be a problem with this particular card), recently reapplied the TIM and my core temp went down by 15C.

Always wanted a 4890 toxic.
Hope your 5970 is a Sapphire.

Let's see... An X1600 Pro, two 4850x2s, a 4870x2, a 4870 Heatpipe, a 4890, a 4850, and a 5850. Is that all?
Still sad I didn't get mu hands on a 4830.

Thanks. Don't know about "master", am a big Sapphire fan. I'm a late bloomer though; went from that X1600 pro to a 4850 X2, skipping the HD2000 and 3000 series. Sure about co-owner, I'd be honored.
Yeah I know, that's why I said it would suck. I tried CrossFiring an Asus 4850 with my 4870, results were disappointing, about on par with a 4890. When I overclocked the 4850 I got it up to 4850x2 levels, but really the whole thing was a disappointment. Made a profit selling the 4850, though.
That little beauty was my first dedicated card. Had it in a little eMachines with an upgraded dual-core CPU for about 6 months before I went fully custom. Got the 5770 for Christmas.
It's just sitting in a box now but I'm hoping to put it back into action to drive my old monitor when I upgrade.

Also, updated, added you too rico (Just made it go to your post when you click your name)
Thank you, I saw.
This should be a good thread.

Congrats, on your first card and the new addiction to your Sapphire family, the 5770. DO any overclocking yet?
on topic: the mixed quad-fire with 4830/4850/4870/4890, would at least make for a great pic and the great thing about crossfire, is that combination would work just fine.
