Less than a month ago Sapphire jumped on the Radeon HD 4870 bandwagon by formally announcing the Sapphire TOXIC Edition.
Sporting elevated clockspeeds and some funky Vapor-X and heatpipe cooling, the TOXIC Edition is RV770 pushed to the limit - so it would have been rude not to look at one when the opportunity arose.
