So, i was checking out the new Ati cards and considered buying but i'd like to ask an opinnion form you guys ;D

Option one:
- Ati Radeon HD 5770 1Gb GDDR5 128-bit
- Ati Radeon HD 5770 1Gb GDDR5 128-bit
= Total cost of 300 €uros + postage

Option two:
- Ati Radeon HD 5870 1Gb GDDR5 256-bit
= Total cost of 350 €uros + postage


Which set of card(s) would have the most usage on gaming performance and other stuff like HD movie watching from a 42" FullHD TV etc..

So should i buy 2 cards with CrossFireX cheaper or just one card for a bit more expensive?
 
I would go with the 5870 because it will do 1920x1080 no problem and you will not have to worry about crossfire scaling working well with your games.
 
Yeah. Ty for your opinnion. I thinked about the pros and cons and came up to one 5870 because it has a lower power consumption, noise and it is also more easy to set up and also u get and extra pci-e slot if you for some reason wanna buy a second card that i really do not expect but..

Gonna buy one 5870! :)
