Sapphire ups the ante with the new TOXIC HD4870 1GB DDR5 (http://www.overclockersonline.net/?page=articles&num=2381).<br /><br />Original Post (http://icrontic.com/ticker/sapphire-toxic-hd4870-1gb-ddr5)

Er... With the air cooler my SANITARY/NON-LETHAL Sapphire 4870 1GB hit core clocks over 800Mhz without breaking a sweat on the stock air cooler. Around 835Mhz to be exact. And it comes with a custom heatpipe cooler, too. The heat pipes are just less obvious.

I am confused about the value proposition of this TOXIC model.
