I would advice that you wait another month just to see if the price comes down with the release of the 6000 series.

Too late, already pulled the trigger on another 5770 :D

or just wait for the 6xxx, i think you'd better wait for the 6770 it's 256bit and u can crossfire it later this is the best choice

honestly not to be a flamer but the way ati support has been with crossfire in the recent driver has been really quite garbage. Itll probably be the same with the next series if they dont get new programmers

Sorry, but I have used CrossfireX since the 48** series and personally have never had a problem, I'm not saying they dont exist only I have never experienced then so I am wiling to take a chance :toast: oh and your name might just suggest you are a flamer, though I am not one to judge ;)

Yes you do want to be a flamer because all of your posts are in ATI Radeon related threads and always consist of you saying their cards suck or their drivers suck. If that isnt a flamer than you need to readjust your concept of the word.

I agree, i mean all that i hear from him all the time is:

nvidia doesnt need to release as many drivers. They are solid already unlike ati's

but honestly who wants ati drivers the way they have been going lately?? ati hasnt been able to get a good driver out for like 4 months

id stay away from ati at this point. seeing how there last 3 driver releases have been garbage. while nvidia drivers have been top notch

Good except id ditch the 5870 and get a GTX470. better drivers, smoother gameplay, and more powerful now

a GTX470 can easily best a HD5870 now and its a no brainer. the 5870 is like $100 more and it can be beaten by a $300 card

yeah theres nothing wrong with terrible drivers and overpriced cards. hd5850 and 5870 are so overpriced right now

And many more.

He's just a heavy fanboy,(just look at his username). And unfortunately he is spreading a lot of misinformation.
