I have the HIS hd4870 1GB blue pcb and the black GPU cooler and is very quiet.
The HIS hd4850 has the same cooler so I would assume that the cooling / noise ratio is the same, so I would go with that.

The reason I point out the noise is that I've read on few places that Sapphire 4870 and 4850 seem to run a bit on the noisy side when GPU is at full load.

Check out the Newegg reviews for the Sapphire card.

Cheers
