Sapphire hd 7950 dual x review.

Dual x sapphire s reputation for innovative excellence continues to grow with the introduction of the new dual extractor technology dual x. With this bios clocks are increased to 950 mhz gpu and 1250 mhz memory. Dual x is a highly efficient multi heatpipe cooler with dual fans that provide quiet and very cool operation during normal operating conditions and superb cooling performance even under extreme load. Sapphire s fan cutouts are just a bit bigger than most other dual fan coolers and placed a bit higher and as a result the dual x cooler is a bit taller than the pcb by about 15mm at its highest.

First things first though we need to see just what s going on with the brand new sapphire hd 7970 dual x 3gb oc bundle. Looking at the aliens vs. Sapphire s hd 7950 vapor x comes with a large dual fan cooler that uses the company s famous vapor chamber technology. Package in typical sapphire fashion we ve got a really nice bundle going on.

Sapphire s dual x r9 280 oc sports the unique dual x cooler with a black on gray theme attached to the company s namesake colored pcb. Predator numbers we can see the new sapphire hd 7950 vapor x oc with boost is able to break the 60 fps barrier at 1920 x 1200. The sapphire radeon hd 7950 oc edition video card that we were sent to review had an insane amount of warp visible along the pci express slot. 2560 x 1600 isn t an option but you can.
