ATI 5770 Display Port?

Hi

I am behind the times a little and looking at a new display adaptor. My 8800 has been dead for two weeks now so really need to get around to getting a new card.

I was recommended to get a 5770 as it is an inexpensive DX11 card. The only issues are:

1. ATI seem to still have issues writing drivers that work.

2. Display port. WTF? I have two monitors, one with an analogue VGA input and one with a DVI input. Having a look at the card I am thinking of getting it has only one DVI output and some other weird connectors. One looks like a HDMI connector.

Can anyone confirm that it will come with an adaptor of some sort to allow me to connect my two monitors from the word go?

Are the drivers really that grim? I have no intention of messing round with setting up as I just want it to work.

Cheers for any help.
 
Threads disagree. Many threads.

So any help with this display port malarkey?

My 5770 has 1 HDMI, 1 display port, and 2 DVI..

I use a 5770 crossfire with 5760x1080, thus using display port, works fine.
Mine came with a VGA adaptor.
So it will indeed work.
I use two VGA BenQ's and a display port Dell.
