Dual 5770 or something new for monitor upgrade?

Thinking of getting the Hazro HZ27WC 27" monitor and worried my 5770 won't handle the 2560x1440 resolution along with other issues with the card I've see on the forums.

Is it worth getting another 5770 or going for 6950/570?

Not that much of a gamer so happy with the 5770 at the moment playing Dirt 3 and Minecraft, not really into cutting edge FSPs but like to think I had the power there if needed. Need to output HD Films to TV

Prepared to spend £200-250 but if I can get away with a cheaper 5770 it would be cool.

Quietness is as important as performance to me.


i5 750
6GB Ram
Intel x25 SSD
Saphire HD 5770
ASUS mobo with SLI (forgotten model!)
Win 7 64
 
6950 would e above upgrade as the extra VRAM will be helpful at that res.
The MSI twin frozr 6950 for £230 would probably be the best bet :)

I had 2x 5770 on 24" 1900x1200
but swapped it for 6950 2gb once I got 27" hazro.
dont play much but 6950 performs really good
