btw i just realize if he change from 4870 to 5770, isnt that a downgrade in terms of performance?
*
Shouldn't be so much difference in terms of framerates but downgrade the energy consumption la.. noise also perhaps??

Still the shrouded design... one would think they can have at least a quieter alternative..

So 6870 is supposed to replace the 5870 now?

gtx400 series cooler does look cooler. and also more effective since it can handle a sun like fermi. or ATI could just copy one of the aftermarket cooler designs like twin frzr or accelero twin turbo but modify it a bit to not get into legal hot soup and call it stock design.
*
Well AMD don't have to copy the twin frzr or the twin turbo, they probably have an agreement with the vendors like MSI or Gigabyte not to do so as not to ruin their business... hell.. its probably even written in their agreement.. this is our loss as a consumer.. rclxub.gif

@Awang,

Rm400 second-hand will get you MAX a reference HD5770,
for the HD4890, cheapest I saw is Rm500

ALERT!

Someone already open thread for HD68XX series!.. laugh.gif
The price very unbelieveable.. shocking.gif

HD6800 series open for book!
*
From that point, the chances of the HD5770 price to drop is very slim...maybe cfx is not meant to be hmm.gif

Think I'll sell off my 5770 and get an upgrade thumbup.gif

I'm not quite sure whether it is PCIe or not, is there many types? I thought it's all standard?

2 types, AGP and PCI-e, so gotta make sure 1st

Hmmm.. u could tell us the model of the mobo? easier for us to know what type of expansion slots u have on it... or you could run Everest and it should tell u what u have
