So it appears the gaps in the PCB are along the edge, i imagine them to be in places along the middle of the PCB.

Nitro+ 4GB Review
1306MHz boost so pretty good overall. The 8GB will boost to 1342MHz.

Some nice gains from this card. Pretty much closes the gap with the 1060.

The VRAM speed was left at stock so should get even more gains when overclocked. Great card.

It looks like OcUK TV gained nearly 15% in Doom and around 7.5% in TR.

7.6% overall performance increase from Reference to AIB, about what i was expecting, still a pretty low clock tho at 1340Mhz.
Apparently overclocking the memory has a huge effect on performance, i would like to see that and some more on the core, they should be pretty quick little cards these.

Actually yes, i was looking at the summery at the end which only takes into account Future Mark, actual gaming performance overall is 10% + higher, thats pretty good for a 6% Factory OC

In the comments DesignsbyNinja (OcUK Marketing) states that he will do some overclocking and mentions TriXX 3.0.
Wattman is limiting the max voltage to 1.15V hence why most reviews cannot get higher than around 1370MHz overclocks.
The card will need about 1.2V for anything over 1400MHz.

Has to be a typo on Sapphire's side; they circle the 2 slots on the picture of the card in the VR section.

I don't understand why the 4gb version has the clock memory to 1750mhz instead of the 8gb at 2000mhz
cheaper memory module?
cheaper memory module?

Always said it was the PS neo chip hamfistted in to the discrete GPU market, overclocking is abysmal.

This is what OcUK had to say:
Yep, the crimson tool is great for upping the power limit and adjusting sound levels etc. but for extra OC with this specific card, it's already been fine tuned to the max, Voltage in the crimson tool is at the max with this card so hopefully TriXX software will allow further voltage control and stable overclocking
Just,as computerbase.de said Wattman has low limits on the voltage you can use and you know this very well since it was mentioned earlier in this thread.
Sure ya did, overclocking on any card or cpu is more of a bonus than anything. Expected but not mandatory.
Caporegime
computerbase really are very odd people, i could go on all day about odd things they do but on this occasion they used Anno which is known to be CPU bound to test overclocking performance, and the result was very little, well DERP!
I think computerbase should be removed from reputable reviewers list and added to the clowns tray.
