The box has a 3D rendered image of a blue tinted magician on the front (Dr Manhattan's skinny brother maybe?), with information on various specifications. ‘Dual Cooling' fan is mentioned here, but we will talk about this later in the review.
The card is protected within an anti static cover, sandwiched inside thick cardboard foam. The bundle is comprehensive, consisting of a Sapphire Select Club membership, software disc and Quick Install guide. There is also a molex to 8 pin and molex to 6 pin converter, for those people with older power supplies. Sapphire also include a high quality HDMI cable, mini DP to Displayport connector and a free copy of the excellent Dirt 3.
Another great card. really enjoying my 5830 xtreme.
Thanks, looks like another good product. so price will be £220 ish? is that the ballpark? I notice sapphire do a dual fan 6950, but its not overclocked and probably cant be unlocked either.
excellent, I need to get dirt 3 cause i need a new game
2GB is nice. I still play GTA4 and that helps. I like maxing everything
Id like to see if two of these would be as good as a HD6990.
you ever hear of the return key?
Good card, but im holding fire until the end of the year, until the refreshed cards come out.
PC market is dead anyway, nothing happening within it 🙁 games all suck lately
Whats up with the box? did they cut the dual fan cooler out at the last minute?
so many of these cards out now its hard to keep track. I think ill wait until the 7 series before upgrading, my old 4 series still manages to play most of the games on my 17 inch screen. Best waiting for the new mid range boards whenever they are out.
This card seems the ultimate 6000 series bang for buck card, runs cool/silent, low power requirements and can be tweaked to outperform the 6970 by a large margin. I need this card sooner then later please!
