Sapphire HD7870 Overclock Edition Review

Futuremark released 3DMark Vantage, on April 28, 2008. It is a benchmark based upon DirectX 10, and therefore will only run under Windows Vista (Service Pack 1 is stated as a requirement) and Windows 7. This is the first edition where the feature-restricted, free of charge version could not be used any number of times. 1280×1024 resolution was used with performance settings.

Good results from the Direct X 10 based benchmark, scoring more than the AMD HD7700 1GHZ in Crossfire.

Path of Exile 2 has been in early access for around a year at this stage, but we are still quite a long ways off from release. The next major update will bring the game up to Version 0.4, although Grinding Gear Games says it is going to do everything it can to ensure that Version 1.0 does not slip into 2027.

  2. Great cards. My friend bought one and its really quiet. the coolers are great this year.

  3. Bought the 7970 last week 🙂

  4. Quality cards, but its a tough decision id have to base on price right now. as they all overclock much the same.

  5. Its XFX or Sapphire usually, but that gigabyte card is a solid buy,

    Only one problem. YOU CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE !!!”

  6. nice specs. good performance sapphire coolers seem a bit better than XFX coolers in regards to tempeatures.
