Santa comes early

[willy]

Got home after work and saw a parcel for me and i thought one of the christmas present from me for somebody else.
So i opened it and saw this

And then when i opened it i got

the new redesigned cooler

Happy bunny,
One more thing i thought i would get 3dmark vantage included like the 512mb version

 

[elpedro]

Nice, looks 10x better than the Sapphire 4870 512 I had

 

[Lightnix]

I love the look of that Sapphire cooler. It's a shame ATi can't use something like that as the reference cooler (looks a lot like the 7900 GTX cooler actually)! Please do give us some info on temps and noise when you get it going, though.

 

[willy]

Will do

One thing i was gonna ask, can i OC it using CCC even tho i only put this on just now

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Yesh you can, but RivaTuner would take it higher.

Cooler looks great

Jeez man, just hook it up and play a game!! Does it need an overclock?

Yup for benchmark

Managed 840 GPU and 1075 memory with CCC.
Tried auto tune and when memory clock went to 1100 got BSOD

 

[TaKeN]

Oooh

I wonder where santa gets these from?

 

[Oobie-]

Wooooo I like when things like that happen

How much was it?

 

[willy]

That's the thing, he won't tell me

So do i suppose getting 3dmark vantage with this card as somebody bought 512mb got 3dmark vantage

I couldn't agree more.

Card looks sweet mate, much better cooler than the crappy plastic things they have on some of them.

 

[Geckovich]

I have the sapphire 512, There was no copy of 3Dmark vantage for me either.

 

[willhub]

Damn looks sexy, now if I was a graphics card I would.....

 

[w311zy]

that cooler does look better than standard.
