It's an OEM laptop card, which means it isn't branded. However, Sapphire does make a lot of ATI's OEM cards, so it might be a Sapphire. Hard to tell, though.

NICE.


One thing I like about Sapphire that a lot of people don't comment on is their packaging material. That cushiony antistatic bag makes amazing packing material for graphics cards. I kept the one from my 4870 for a long time, until I used it when I sold a 4850 I'd gotten. It's like combination bubble wrap and antistatic bag, it's perfect.

Hell yeah.

So far:

4870 512MB heatpipe
4850 X2 1GB
4850 512MB

I regret not getting a Sapphire 4890; my first 2 are an HIS and a used Asus because they were extremely cheap at the time, and when I bought my 3rd I decided on XFX (because I was very pleased with my XFX 4870 512MB), even though it was the same price as a Sapphire. Had to RMA the card should have just gone with Sapphire.

When I dive into the 5800 series I will most definitely be buying a Sapphire.

Definitely missing my 4890, but can't wait to get my 5870 or 5970 which will definitely be a Sapphire.

Damn!
I helped two of my friends build their rigs. Put a Sapphire HD4550 Silent in one of them, and a Sapphire HD4670 Arctic Cooling 1GB in the other. Great cards, and they come with case stickers.

If only my local store still stocked the original 5770 (non-egg shaped) I'd definitely go for Sapphire. Sadly all other brands have moved on to the egg cooler, and Asus was the only one left with the original coolers, so I went with that. No case badge though. :swearing:
