Full Sapphire R7 and R9 series lineup revealed

A total of 13 graphics cards

Videocardz.com managed to get their hands on Sapphire's complete Radeon R7 and R9 lineup expected to launch tomorrow, on 8th of October. The lineup will include no less than thirteen different graphics card based on Oland Pro/XT, Bonaire XTX, Curacao XT and Tahiti XT GPUs.

The lineup includes a total of six Radeon R7 series graphics cards including two R7 250 and four R7 240 graphics cards. The R7 250 will be based on Oland XT GPU with 384 stream processors and will be available with 1GB of either GDDR5 or DDR3 memory and thus different memory clocks. The Radeon R7 240 on the other hand feature Oland Pro GPU with 320 stream processors and will be available in various memory configurations including 1GB GDDR5 and 1, 2 or 4GB DDR3 memory.

Interestingly enough, Sapphire will launch a single R7 260X graphics card based on Bonaire XTX GPU with 896 stream processors. It will pack 2GB of GDDR5 memory paired up with a 128-bit memory interface and work at 1050MHz GPU and 6600MHz memory clocks.

The situation gets a bit more interesting in the R9 270X segment where Sapphire has three different graphics cards, all based on a custom design. All three are based on the same Curacao XT GPU with 1280 stream processors and according to our earlier report, Curacao is a revised Pitcairn GPU, thus the lack of AMD TrueSound. Sapphire will launch Dual-X, Vapor-X and TOXIC R9 270X series graphics card and although all three will pack 2GB of GDDR5 memory paire up with a 256-bit memory interface, all three will feature a different custom cooler and different GPU/memory clocks.

The Sapphire R9 280X lineup is quite similar to the R9 270X one as it also has three versions, Dual-X, Vapor-X and Toxic. The R9 280X will be based on Tahiti XT GPU with 2048 stream processors, 3GB of GDDR5 memory, 384-bit memory interface and different clocks ranging from 870MHz for the GPU to 1100MHz while memory is set anywhere between 6.0GHz and 6.4GHz.
