The Sapphire HD 6950 Toxic

HardOCP tested the latest Sapphire Cayman series card, announced a few days ago. The HD 6950 Toxic offers a revised in-house ventirad that benefits from the vapor chamber, and factory overclocking that is not timid, with 880/5200 MHz against 800/5000 in standard. That's for the quick description of the product, let's move on to the test itself.

Our colleagues put up against it an HD 6950, an HD 6970, the latter being interesting to see how much the Toxic bridges the performance gap with its big sister, and a GTX 570 without forgetting the GTX 580, one level above in range. The two resolutions chosen are 1920 x 1200 and 2560 x 1600.

HardOCP a testé la dernière carte Sapphire de la série Cayman, annoncée il y a quelques jours de cela. La HD 6950 Toxic offre un ventirad maison revu qui bénéficie de la chambre à vapeur, et un overclocking d'usine qui n'est pas timide, avec 880/5200 MHz contre 800/5000 en standard. Ca c'est pour la rapide description du produit, passons au test en lui même.

Nos confrères ont mis en face une HD 6950, une HD 6970, cette dernière étant intéressante pour voir à quel point la Toxic comble le gap de performances avec sa grande soeur, et une GTX 570 sans oublier la GTX 580, un cran au dessus en gamme. Les deux résolutions retenues sont le 1920 x 1200 et le 2560 x 1600.
Pas mal pour une carte a 269$
