Sapphire R9 270X Toxic Edition OC Review

power consumption
The Sapphire R9 270X Toxic Edition OC card is demanding a little more power than the Asus R9 270X Direct CU II TOP. Still the card is reasonably efficient considering the gaming performance.

  1. These do look a little like Zotac cards, but they have excellent coolers. my friend bought the 280X toxic edition after reading the review here and its impressive. good cards and a long establisted name.

  2. same price as the HD7870 Tahiti LE I bought a few months ago – bit pissed off about that 🙂

  3. wow, nice review. maybe i should buy this card 🙂
