First of all, I have to thank PCGEEK for the invitation, he has helped me alot during the past week, and I really appreciate his input.

I'm about to get a Sapphire X850XTm just wonder what's a good modded driver for it.

Hello and welcome to Cyber InfoTech Forums.

On a personal note, I would not recommend buying a Sapphire-based graphics card. Some other good ones include:

PowerColor
ATI (genuine)
Gigabyte
MSI
ABIT

Here is a topic about video card modding.

Sure, here are probably the best drivers out right now.

ATI Radeon DNA-drivers 3.7.5.2

As for ATI based Graphic's Cards, you will notice that some companies use different Ram latencies for there lower end cards & some of there high end if compared to ATI's genuine.

High End Sapphire-based graphics card should be O.K. but I don?t recommend there low end stuff seeing that many third party companies using the ATI graphic?s use a little cheaper memory with not so good timings.
