XFX Radeon 5770 Graphics Card HD577AZNFC

Supports Crossfire allowing you to link two graphics cards together.

Utilizes PowerPlay technology for quiet and
energy efficient processing.

Unrivaled Visuals with DirectX 11 Support

The Radeon 5770 is a graphics powerhouse. With more than one billion transistors, it can muscle through even the most hardware-intensive games. It also uses advanced GDDR5 memory that can keep up with the high-bandwidth demands of today's games. With so much graphic power at its disposal, the card guarantees a smooth, latency-free gaming experience.

The card also boasts superior filtering capabilities. It supports up to 24x multi-sample anti-aliasing that works to smooth out jagged edges and eliminate graphical artifacts. And with up to 16x anisotropic filtering, textures appear sharper than ever.

Most importantly, however, the Radeon 5770 gives you access to DirectX 11 (DX11)--the next generation of PC graphics technology. DX11 unlocks brand-new graphical features like tessellation, which allows for greater realism and detail. More and more games rely on DX11, and with the Radeon 5770, you won't be left behind with an inferior graphics card.

ATI Eyefinity for an Immersive, Panoramic View

The Radeon 5770 also features ATI Eyefinity, a radical new technology that allows you to expand your display across up to three monitors. Using Eyefinity, you can achieve a wide, panorama-like display. Since each monitor preserves its native resolution, you'll be able to link your monitors without a decrease in sharpness.

If you're a gamer, the added visual space gives you a real advantage. Shooter fans will have expanded peripheral vision and will react faster to incoming enemies. Real-time strategists will get a commanding view of the map and will be able to execute strategies more effectively. And flight simulators will feel more immersive than ever, placing you directly in the cockpit.

High-Definition Video and Audio

With the Radeon 5770, you'll be able to enjoy all of your HD media with unparalleled crispness and clarity. The card is equipped with ATI Avivo, a new reference technology that speeds up HD image processing. With Avivo, you can expect flawless, smooth video playback, with faster decoding and post-processing than ever. Avivo also enables full HDMI connectivity and support for the latest HD color profiles, so you can watch Blu-ray movies on your computer.

The Radeon 5770 also sports an integrated audio controller that supports HD audio profiles like AC-3, AAC, Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-HD. It features up to 7.1 channel surround audio and delivers a powerful HD audio performance.

Energy Efficient and Quiet

Thanks to ATI's industry-leading power design, you'll also enjoy the ultimate in energy efficiency and quietness while using the Radeon 5770. The card utilizes PowerPlay technology, which dynamically adjusts power use depending on how active the card is. This helps the GPU disperse heat more effectively, ensuring that your card runs safely and stably. It also makes the card quieter, so you can hear your games instead of your computer.

Crossfire Support for Multiple GPU Power

PC gaming is more immersive than ever before, but it is also much more hardware intensive. To keep up with the latest benchmarks, one graphics card sometimes isn't enough. Thankfully, the ATI Radeon 5770 supports Crossfire, which allows you to link two graphics cards together for a greatly increased GPU output. This added graphic power eliminates frame-rate hiccups and slowdowns and improves your gaming experience even more.

The ATI Radeon 5770 Graphics Card is backed by a three-year warranty.

This review is from: XFX Radeon HD 5770 1 GB DDR5 PCIE Graphics Card HD577AZNFC (Personal Computers)

My very first true graphics card was a Radeon rage 128 with like 8 or 16mb video ram. I have gone through many Radeon cards and for 180$ this is one hell of a card. Lets face it not many, if none games today support direct x 11 however my nvidia 9800gt did not support my Panasonic resoultion which was because my 9800GT didn't have a HDMI output connector. The fact is when I grew tired of the Radeon 5850 being out of stock I bought this card and so far hooked to a Panasonic 46" plasma it has performed outstandingly. If you want maximum performance wait for the 5850 for 5870 but the fact remains 180$ for a graphics card with direct 11 and capable of running L4D at full 1920X1080 resoultion is remarkable. This card almost didn't fit into my NZXT cases so be prepares it requires some room, for this price this card is outstanding and its in stock woot :). I am not a nerd nor going to give anyone a pros or cons verdict. Fact is I'am a gamer so for 180$ this is a great deal and lets face it ladies and gentle men why should anyone pay more than 200$ for a graphics when it will be outdated within a year? Too many manufactures are looking for profit with no gain to consumer experience, all I have to say is watch what you spend and remember corruptions are looking out for any amount of money they can acquire, was this card worth the 180$? So far yes but beyond 200$ is insane especially considering a x-box is 200$

5.0 out of 5 stars Gone back to Radeon, November 26, 2009

This review is from: XFX Radeon HD 5770 1 GB DDR5 PCIE Graphics Card HD577AZNFC (Personal Computers)

Though I have been an NVIDIA Fan Boi now for 5 years.....I have come to respect the new Radeon series, especially since XFX has jumped on the Radeon band-wagon.....

I've always been a HUGE fan of EVGA and XFX and I thought I would venture into the realm of Radeon again knowing that XFX has an awesome reputation for having a great graphics card.

I can't say that I'm that surprised because this is backed by XFX, but I've had nothing but a great experience with my new XFX Radeon 5770.

My system use to skip and stutter in the first 10 seconds during gameplay on COD4 with my 8800GTX, but since I've installed this Radeon 5770 from XFX, I've had no such problems!

For those of you who play today's latest games and future games like COD MW2, this Radeon 5770 from XFX is PERFECT!

You can't beat the DOUBLE LIFETIME WARRANTY!

The only thing that is a negative was it took me about 6 hours to install the card. Most of it was my problem. At first I didn't think that my HP desktop even had a slot for it, but finally determined that it did. Then shoe-horning in this big board on my little motherboard was a challenge. Then I couldn't find the power connector because the drawing that came with the board was nothing like the actual board. The connector was hidden in the end of the card inside the cooling shroud. So, bottom line, I had to call HP to make sure that the motherboard was compatible and I had to call Radeon to find the power supply connection and later to ask them to troubleshoot as my computer would not recognize the card. There was pretty much nothing they could do, so I finally reseated the board and apparently it was a few microns from being seated completely. Now it works fine. My only performance example so far is playing Ghost Recon 2 Advanced Warfighter. Before I installed this card, there was so much lag in the screen movement, even at the lowest settings, that it was unplayable. Now the video is incredible with no lag whatsoever. Occasionally Ghost Recon crashes, but that is probably a Windows Vista issue rather than the video card.

So, to sum up: Installation a pain and poorly documented. Operation is a joy.
