Some photos of what seems to be SAPPHIRE Radeon RX 480 NITRO 8GB have surfaced on the WWW. The card from Sapphire is their Nitro model and will be a dual-slot dual-fan based product.

The photos appeared online through Videocardz, who on their end noticed them at HWBattle. There's nothing much to say otherwise, the Radeon RX 480 cards are likely to be released on June 29th and will become available with 4GB and 8GB configurations.

My case definitely has bling. It will be getting more in September, when I upgrade the cases pre-installed fans to red led one's.
The case itself uses NZXT's HUE lighting and has 2 outer led strips and one at the top inside the case.
My Asus Maximus VIII Hero motherboard also has software for changing the mobo's led color's, too.
I'm going with red, as it matches my black case and grey motherboard perfectly.
For the 2 200mm. replacement fans, I'll probably get 2 NZXT red led one's. For the 4 140mm. one's, I'll probably go with BitFenix Spectre PRO Red Leds. My water cooler, I'll just use the 4 stock Arctic 120mm. fans that came with my Arctic Liquid Freezer 240. That will most definitely be getting upgraded to a EKWB Predator 240 or 360 in January.
My case fits push/pull up top so I'll be getting 2 or 3 EKWB Vardat F4-120mm fans for push/pull when I do the upgrade.

Not the best looking card but also not as bad as people are saying it is lol , Sapphire Nitro series coolers have always been great offering a very , very good cooling solution.

performance is what makes an internal part look good to me, here it seems they tried too hard to make it minimalistic

Since there will be more models performing the same more or less, looks might be the next thing you search for to help you decide what to get.
