The Sapphire card is once again the best performer in our tested suite of cards and sees performance levels over the GTX 280 card in all of the overall tests.  The ‘Performance’ result shows the Sapphire card 6.7% faster, the ‘High’ results shows the card 6.5% faster while at ‘Extreme’ the 4850 X2 is 13% faster.  The synthetic tests are much more mixed as only some of them are able to take full advantage of the dual-GPU configuration the Sapphire card provides.  For example the Particles and Cloth tests both have the HD 4850 X2 card losing to the single-GPU based HD 4870 1GB card.
