Would a 5770 be a worthwhile upgrade from a GeForce 8800GTS?

Discuss. :p

Ideally would go higher, but due to availability and prices, I could get a 5770 now and go xfire later.

But, if I don't ever get that second card, would a single one vastly better than my GeForce 8800GTS?
 
Hmm...interesting.

I'm torn now. I could probably get 'domestic clearance' for one of these now, and another in the new year. This could be a nice upgrade, but might limit my options.

Alternatively, I could wait for a 5850. Availability is close to zero, and I'm not sure I could convince the 'Boss' to let me part with £240 right now.

My 8800 is showing its age, and I'm impatient.:D I just wonder if I'd regret it in the long term. Mind you, I only game @ 1680x1050.

Decisions, decisions...
