Low profile and reference
As almost every other ATI AIB partner, Sapphire has also decided to launch a couple of HD 5570 cards. Sapphire will have two of this cards for now, and both will feature 1GB of GDDR3 memory, same reference clocks, will use a low profile PCB and a small heatsink/fan for cooling.
The Sapphire HD 5570 cards feature 400 Stream processors, 650MHz core clock and 1GB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1800MHz and paired up with a 128-bit memory interface. The card uses active cooling with a small fan, and features support for DirectX 11.
The only difference between two announced cards is their output configuration, as one will feature DVI, D-Sub and HDMI outputs, while the other will replace the HDMI with DisplayPort.
