XFX ATI HD5770 xXx Edition

[D@RKSID3]

Can anyone help me? I'm thinking of upgrading my current video card to this, but i'm not sure what the difference is between this and the normal edition.
Any help please?

Basically the 5770 has diferent cooling hence higher clocks speed, the core of the 5770 has been overclocked by 25Mhz and the GDDR5 by 100 Mhz, ive done some looking to find some kind of comparision and a quick comparision of the two reviews below (one for the normal HD5770 and one for the xfx) i didnt see much of a difference

The xxx edition is the overclocked edition. In my opinion i would just get the regular one because it's cheaper and you can always overclock it to the same specs as the xxx edition. I dont think the cooling of it it's different than the regular one.

just get the regular one. overclocking is easy to do on the regular one and surpassing the xxx's overclock is not hard to do at all.

I like getting the pre-overclocked ones because I'm not really into GPU overclocking, and the cards are supposedly hand-picked from the normal batch to be put in the XXX batch.
