Introduction

Back in HD 3870 times Sapphire released a special overclocked edition of the HD 3870 X2 called "Atomic". Now the Atomic is back and has been updated to the HD 4870 X2 Series. The card comes with a pre-filled watercooling kit that also includes a CPU waterblock, which is a novelty. Asetek is the manufacturer of the watercooling components. Also included in the package is a large software bundle, loads of cables and everything else you could imagine. Not only the package has been improved, the clocks have been bumped up as well making the Sapphire HD 4870 X2 Atomic the fastest ATI card on the market. All this comes with a big big price tag of at least $600. While this may sound like much, Sapphire sold all HD 3870 X2 cards rather quickly, so I think this one will sell out fast too.
