Sapphire HD6850 Toxic Edition Review

Unfortunately when using the Catalyst Control Center we are limited to 850mhz and we wanted to try and push the card further. We therefore decided to try the new beta of the Sapphire TriXX software which worked great, even allowing us to increase voltage to 1300.

Overclocking takes some time, finding the limits for both the core and memory.

Raising the voltage to 1300, we managed to get the core to 1009mhz and 1157mhz on the memory.

This gives an increase of around 2,500 points in 3DMark Vantage after overclocking, pushing the Toxic Edition into the same zone as the overclocked GTX460 Talon edition.
