The SAPPHIRE HD 7970 3GB Vapor-X Edition delivers a similar high performance as the HD 7970 6GB Vapor-X model but at a more aggressive price point. It has 3GB of the latest GDDR5 memory clocked at 6000MHz effective, and runs with a core clock speed of 1000 MHz which with PowerTune Dynamic Boost rises to 1050 MHz on the engine. It has a slightly less sophisticated 8-phase power design and the versatile output configuration of Dual-link DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI and DisplayPort.

Vapor-X Cooling Design: The brand new Vapor-X cooling design is based on a new vapor-chamber designed especially for the HD 7970 Vapor-X. With two 90 mm HJB bearing fan and 2 x 8mm plus 2 x 6 mm highly efficient heatpipes, the cooler easily handles the heat generated from the HD 7970 Vapor-X even when it is running over 1000 MHz.

TriXX Utility: TriXX allows tuning of GPU voltage as well as core and memory clocks, whilst continuously displaying the temperature. Manual control of fan speed is supported, as well as user created fan profiles and the ability to save up to four different performance settings.

For those who are finding the Toxic 6GB card a bit unbearable on the wallet-hm I think it's me,but still 399£ i bit to much for me...great card though.i'll see next month how much they'll want for this.
 
Looks like the 6gb vapor-x card is up for pre order too now. A little bit cheaper than the toxic, I think its just a different cooler and without the 1200mhz switch.
