Sapphire HD 4670 Ultimate 512MB Passive Video Card Review

Packaging and Accessories

The packaging this card comes in is quite understated without any flash graphics or overly loud colors. As a matter of fact, for some reason the white reminded me a lot of the older Sapphire motherboards which were produced with a stunning white PCB. Other than that, there really isn’t much mention of clock speeds but there are some advertisements regarding the included software.


The actual card is held within Sapphire’s usual “box within a box” where the outside packaging is nothing more than a slip cover for a standard brown cardboard box. Within this, the HD 4670 Ultimate is perfectly protected by a transparent plastic insert and high density foam inserts. In the past, we had expressed some reservations about Sapphire’s packaging scheme but it looks like they have really turned things around.


The accessories that come with the Ultimate are basically nil. Why? Because no adaptors or additional connectors are needed since as you will see, the card itself already has all the connectors you could possibly want. Other than that, you get an extremely well-rounded software package which includes a DVD Suite, a slightly outdated version of Cyberlink’s PowerDVD software and a CD with various other extras such as wallpapers and screensavers.
