SAPPHIRE Technology has just announced its ATOMIC Edition of the HD 4890 based on ATI/AMD technology. Building on its Vapor-X Vapor Chamber Cooling technology introduced over a year ago, the SAPPHIRE HD 4890 ATOMIC Edition will be a limited edition product aimed at the enthusiast looking for the maximum performance straight out of the box.
 The SAPPHIRE HD 4890 ATOMIC is the card with a core clock speed of 1GHz as well as 1GB of GDDR5 memory with clocks of 1050MHz. The SAPPHIRE HD 4890 series is based on a new GPU core from the ATI division of AMD. This features the same graphics architecture as the HD 4870 series, with 800 stream processor units, 256-bit GDDR5 memory interface and integral hardware video decoder. It also features improved memory management architecture, and technical innovations that allow higher clock speeds and reduce standby power levels.
This series uses the PCI-Express Gen2 interface, and features dual connectors for CrossFireX cables, allowing two or more cards to be used together on a CrossFireX compatible motherboard for even higher graphics performance.
Its distinctive silver box features accessory bundle that includes HDMI cable for connection to a suitable display. A launch promotion on www.sapphireatomic.com gives users a chance to win one of these cards as well as related prizes.
SAPPHIRE will be announcing further models in its HD 4890 series in the coming weeks.
