HD 5770 good choice to buy?

HeUeR · Apr 14, 2010

Hey all,

First of all i want to start with this - my current card XFX 8800GTX died, not realy died, but get colored lines all over the screen, and cant RMA because warranty ends before month :wtf:

So i dont have much money to spend on new card, but i can afford 5770, so im here to ask if it will be good choice and i will feel very goog performance boost against my old 8800GTX?

Sorry for my english and feel free to consult me in this question :toast:

Chart here shows that the 5770 outguns the GTS250 which is more powerful than the 8800GTX. So, you will receive improvements in your performance, but maybe not as much as you hope. The 5770 is a good piece of hardware priced very competitively, so I have no reason not to recommend it.

HeUeR · Apr 14, 2010

im not expecting to get like 2x better perfomance over 8800GTX, i will be very happy if 5770 will give me 1.5x better performance over 8800GTX :toast:

But i have another question, i readed some threads where guys discused about gigabyte problems with 2D settings, so i am afraiding to buy gigabyte product now, because im not sure if i will meet this problem too (im lookng at gigabyte 5770 card to buy), so can someone confirm that there is 2D settings problems with 5770? Sorry for english i hope you all understand what i mean :rolleyes:

Well I think a 5770 will be just fine..

I compare it like this My 4830 is about the same as an 8800
My 5750 is almost twice the card...
a 5770 is even better...
so yeah I actually think you will notice a difference and it would be worth your money

HeUeR · Apr 14, 2010

big tnx both, but what with those 2d and 3d settings, how much i readed, gigabyte 5800 series have problems with 2d (idle) settings, fan speed is stading at 55% and clocks is not droping down, is that so bad or i dont need to worry about that? Just want to know all information before i buy :toast:

erocker · Apr 14, 2010

I would stay away from the Gigabyte cards. Find one with the "batmobile" reference cooler on it. I'm using one from XFX and 2d/3d clocks, fan speeds are all great. :toast:

xrealm20 · Apr 14, 2010

I've been very, very happy with my 5770's - I started out with one that replaced a dead GTX260 and the performance was very similar with dramatically less power.

Since then I've added a second 5770 and now have performance similar to the 5870's.

Very happy with these little cards. They are a great value at ~ 150$

HeUeR · Apr 14, 2010

nice to hear good about card :rolleyes:

So what's with that gigabyte "batmobile" card, that version is crap? Can you please tell what is bad about gigabyte 5770 cards, just want to know info :toast:

OneMoar · Apr 15, 2010

I have the 5750 and I am quite pleased with it

DonInKansas · Apr 15, 2010

5770 is great. I had the 2nd rev egg cooler and it was excellent and no 2D clock issues.

Rapidfire48 · Apr 15, 2010

I am currently running 2 of them in crossfire and I think they are great also.

RadeonProVega · Apr 15, 2010

Yes a 5770 is a good choice, i am buying one myself.
I have one question, how did the 8800gt now, you were overclocking?

HeUeR · Apr 15, 2010

nice to see ppl are choosing 5770, but still no answers what about those gigabyte "batmobile" versions, and why i need to avoid gigabyte !? :eek:

This sounds like a job for.. SUPER OVEEEENN!
Several users on 8800 gtx's have fixed that very same problem you describe by literally "cooking"
their gpu.
It is known to help reconnect loose connections that tend to cause artifacting like what you see.
We have a thread dedicated to it in these forums.
I believe the procedure was cook at 450 degrees F for 3 hours.
Please verify that before you do it.
But so far I have heard it help like 80% of the people with that problem.
May very well fix it for you.

I still use my 8800gtx, because it is still a kick ass card.
That is a card that stood the test of time IMO.

It is the other way around.
The "batmobile" is the ATi reference cards, Gigabyte cards are bad because they are not "BatMobile"s

Yea in our country cooking is too popular for these cards, but i dont whana do that by my self

Maybe 1 guy will do that for me, but ppl is talking that cooked cards is not working very long too, so i decided to get new card very soon :rolleyes:

So if i cant get "batmobile" card then better avoid gigabyte, i understand correct?

More or less correct.

HeUeR · Apr 15, 2010

I have another question, maybe it sounds little bit nooby, but i have THIS motherboard, and how much i know it have PCI-E 1.0 slot, but 5770 is PCI-E 2.0, so is there will be any perfomance drops due to that fact? :wtf:

n-ster · Apr 15, 2010

16x PCI-E 1.0 = 8x PCI-E 2.0

If you have 16x PCI-E 1.0, you are fine, virtually no loss in performance

HeUeR · Apr 15, 2010

yup i have 16x PCI-E 1.0, and nice to hear i will not loose performance :toast:

n-ster · Apr 15, 2010

You could also save up and get the 5850.... OCed, that card has jaw-dropping performance at a great price

headshot119 · Apr 15, 2010

I've got a 5770 running two 23" monitors configured to one panel via CCC. Still getting average of 136 FPS in CSS. So yeh go and buy one.

n-ster · Apr 15, 2010

CSS isn't the thing that stresses your computer the most xD

headshot119 · Apr 15, 2010

It's the only game I've tried since I set it up that way

Just need to get Gmod up and see.....

MKmods · Apr 15, 2010

the 5770 is a very good card but its not gonna seem like a big jump from the 8800GTX, to save some $ you could get a 5750 (I pay about $100 Open box at Newegg). that will play games just fine till you can upgrade to a 5850 (BIG jump from the 8800GTX).

I have both the 5770s and 5750s and the 5750s are surprisingly excellent for $100
