A report from KitGuru tells us that Sapphire is building a new and improved R9 290X graphics card – one with a rather impressive spec sheet. The card will be known as the R9 290X Toxic Edition.
The card seems to be based off of the original Tri-X R9 290X graphics card, though they do carry a number of differences.
The biggest difference between this card and other R9 290X cards in general is the 8 GB of graphics memory, rather than the reference 4 GB solutions.
So far, there has been no information on what the card's clock speeds would be, but given that this is a 'Toxic' branded product, it's safe to assume that the factory overclock will be at least respectable, if not better.
Of course, there is also no word yet on pricing or availability. That said, it will be a limited edition card, meaning that prices are likely to be a little higher than usual.
