I have Sapphire HD3870, which is dual slot with that red colored cooler. And lately i saw single slot Sapphire 3870 in some reviews (same as yours jedihobbit), which made me wonder whether Sapphire makes 2 same 3870 graphics card? one single and one dual slot? also my pcb is red, while yours is blue?

I don't think the PCB color makes a difference. Some manufacturers have different colors. Sometimes one country gets one color and the other gets another.
It isn't abnormal to see gpu manufacturers offer 2+ versions of a graphics card.
When you are done with your build, can you tell us what your temps are in idle and load with stock settings? It it is already too warm, then I would probably not even bother to overclock unless I bought an aftermarket cooler and/or improved the case cooling. |
