Tatty, I think you are under estimating the HD5770.
We say the HD5770 is on par with the HD4870 not because it is sometimes slower, because it is also some times as fast as the HD4890.
I dont think I am, the 5770 is an excellent card but does get beaten by the HD4870 in some things from what I have read, I dont doubt the cards worth, I just think that moving from a 4870 to a 5770 in performance terms is an exercise in spending money for diminishing returns, I would recommend to anyone to get a 4770 if they were moving from say a 4850 or a GTX250/9800GTX, I just think it's pricepoint is less appealing when there is less of a performance gain.
That said, i acknowledge the other strengths of the card, in fact i do really like them but how many people genuinely really spend money to get some energy saving with little performance upgrade (at least in some apps).
