5770. Right on the dot with your budget, runs cooler than the 48xx series so less noise problems with fans trying to stop the card from going supernova. And it's DX11 capable.
 
i could be wrong but isn't the older 4870 a faster card? even though it is running hotter. I know its only a few fps better but from the various review sites i've seen it seems to come out on top compared to the 5770.
 
4890 is faster than a 5770 but consumes much more power and older tech. 4870 is about equal to a 5770 but again more power and no dx11. The 48xx cards will also depreciate faster. If you dont mind the power consumption/heat, depreciation and no dx11 get a 4890 otherwise 5770.
