X1900XTX goes TOXIC

Sapphire har i dag udsendt en pressemeddelelse hvori de offentliggør lanceringen af deres TOXIC X1900XTX. Toxic kort fra Sapphire har vi tidligere set hos blandt andet X800 kortet, som blev leveret med en ret stor men lydløs køler.

X1900XTX kortet kommer da også med en anderledes køler, men denne gang er der tale om vandkøling. Udover vandkøling er kortet overclocket fra fabrik, og har følgende specifikationer:
