Sapphire HD 4670 Ultimate Summary

As for the Sapphire HD 4670 Ultimate Edition graphics card that we have discussed today, we can tell you the following: it is a compact noiseless solution that will be a perfect fit for relatively powerful HTPC systems with good in-case ventilation. The latter is a must because Sapphire card uses passive cooling system. This solution is not the best choice for gaming, because its performance is not high enough for comfortable gaming experience. Nevertheless, Sapphire HD 4670 Ultimate Edition can be used for not very resource-hungry MMORPG, like D&D Online, LotR Online, Eve Online, Warhammer Online, Requiem Online  and even the well-known World of Warcraft. However, if your gaming preferences go beyond massively multiplayer online RPG, then you should probably check out Radeon HD 4770 or higher solutions.
