Now im confused on which HD5770 i should get..
initially i plan on getting the normal ASUS 5770 ...but now with the ASUS 5770 Cucore out im unsure if i should get the CuCore or the Sapphire vapor x

all 3 are simmilar in price

so far what i gathered up on reviews are:

ASUS comes with a Voltage tweak which helps on easy Overclocking ..both the normal 5770 & Cucore has it

but the CuCore apparently only has 1 crossfire connector & no Display ports (no Eye infinity)

Vapor-X on the other hand has a great cooling system But it does not have the voltage tweak like the ASUS brand does
Hope u guys who have any of these 3 cards can help me out a lil
Stuff such as EyeFinity has very little use anyway (impractical for most users), unless you can afford multiple large monitors and a more powerful setup (ie. have you ever wondered Eyefinity setup uses? flex.gif ). As for overclocking graphic cards, that one I usually do not recommend as it may damage it in the process.. tongue.gif

plus if u want 2 comment on the parts i chosen for a Mid range gaming pc feel Free 2 speak out thumbup.gif
Can use cheaper casing (e.g. CoolerMaster Elite 330 series casing), cheaper HSF (e.g. CoolerMaster Hyper 212+), and cheaper motherboard (e.g. ASUS M4A77TD Pro or GigaByte GA-MA770T-UD3P, both support 140W TDP processors). wink.gif And for that amount in your specifications, can already go for Core i5 750 machine.. brows.gif
