Sapphire Radeon HD 6770 Vapor-X Video Card Review

***Kombatant*** · Jun 9, 2011, 01:21 AM

Another review from our very own Caveman-Jim; Sapphire refreshes their HD 5700 range to become the Radeon HD 6700 series. This edition features a factory overclock, custom PCB design and Vapor-X cooling to go with Blu-ray 3D support and HDMI 1.4. Is it worth your money against AMD's own HD 6790? Can it Crossfire with a HD 5770?

Great review

There is an error in charts though, it should be HD6790 instead of HD6970

I was about to make a comparison to Sapphire's $150 5850 xtreme, but it looks like supplies of those have just about dried up. The 67xx price points still disappoints me.
