Sapphire HD7790 OC Review

Sapphire enjoy their 3D rendered ladies and we aren't complaining. While we do like their artwork, a quality high resolution image of the video card itself would help showcase the lovely dual fan cooler within a retail store environment (yes, there still are a few of them open!).

The Sapphire HD7790 OC bundle is good. The company include power and video converters, a quality HDMI cable, literature and software discs.

The Sapphire HD7790 OC is an attractively designed discrete solution, built around a black PCB with dual fan cooler. The shroud may be plastic, but it looks great. It is a dual slot card and most of the hot air should be forced out the back of the chassis.

The HD7790 OC is Crossfire capable if you want to buy another card. Like all of these boards, it will only work in a dual card configuration. It requires a single 6 pin power connector.

The card has dual DVI connectors, an HDMI connector and a DisplayPort connector.

The Sapphire cooler is a modest dual heatpipe model, although they are thick pipes. They run into two separate racks of aluminum fins on either side of the core.

  1. You guise were busy at 04.01 AM xD

  2. Good looking card from Sapphire, not so sure of the range however, pricing looks off.

  3. HD7850 is the best of the bunch, they used to £180, now you can get one for under £130.

  4. Good review. looks like a good buy if they replaced the HD7770 with this one at the same £100 price. Can’t see this card online, interested to see how much of a premium the OC and cooler will cause.

  5. I like the intro and conclusion, very true points on pricing. And this audience are all about price. some reviews just overlook it completely.

  6. Do you know Scan have the XFX HD7850 for £127 today !

    Unless AMD force up the price of the HD7850 to sell HD7790 this wont work. people will get pissed too. HD7850 at under £140 rocks.
