First non-reference HD 4850 introduced with PCB and circuit re-design by Sapphire

Altough many non-reference HD 4850 have already showed up, they seems only changed the cooler. As the biggest partner of AMD, Sapphire introduces the first circuit and PCB re-design non-reference HD 4850.
As pics shows, the power module is rebuilt on the left and GPU move a bit toward the back end. PCB seems shorter and a new cooler sized for about 90 x 90 x 15 mm. The cooler is crude. It’s doubted whether it’s able to cool the HD 4850.
The non-reference HD 4850 works at 625/1996MHz, the same as a reference card. However, as an non-reference card, let’s expect its price.
