so your saying the 5750 is better???

He did that the wrong way around. His is lowest to the best, he means to say the 5850 is far and beyond the rest.

Although you could buy another 5770 and crossfire, you would get performance far better then a single 5850, for the same price.

He's got the arrows wrong way round.

5770 is decent card, but crippled by 128bit memory bus and so struggles at high res or lots of AA.

5850 would be a big improvement under such situations.

 

[pzr vr6]

so 2 5770s or 1 5850 for max settings??

1 5850 overclocked beats a 5870 well from vantage benchmarks ive seen mine does.

It's about 50% faster.

your better off going single 5850 overclocking it to easily 5870 performance and beyond more games work better with single gpu then if you want get anthor in CF down the line.

2 5770s beat the 5870. But for the same price or abit less a 5850 can beat a 5870 overclocked. Your choice tbh. both can beat 5870.
If you get a 5850 there is always another PCIE slot you can use when you get the money again ;D
