With the graphics card industry changing at a breakneck pace, the mantra of “innovate or get out while you still can” has never been so close to the actual truth as it is now. With their HD3870 Toxic, Sapphire has shown that they are much more than an OEM card manufacturer by releasing a card that is innovative, feature-rich and packed to the hilt with more goodies than you can shake a ram module at. It performs well in nearly every game even though the RV670 architecture is quite clearly behind that of Nvidia’s G92 in terms of raw performance potential and this card’s high-def video and audio processing capabilities keep it from being an also-ran. Basically, if you are playing at or below 1600x1200 resolution in DX9, the Sapphire HD3870 Toxic will be more enough for you.
