  • A less expensive, but modern card that can still handle gaming
  • It's a 4870with DirectX 11 Great power envelope Practically silen Cheap

Reviewers Didn't Like

  • With only a single 6 pin power connector, you’re limited with overclocking
  • Without driver improvement, will be matched or beaten by HD 4870s
  • DirectX 11 performance can’t really be tested until more games are available later this year

Ultimately it seems that the 5770 is a pretty good upgrade for anyone with a card that's seen better years and the gamer's that want to play most games at near top detail levels without breaking the bank. This vanilla version isn't the best...

The performance of the HD5770 is pretty amazing, considering the modest looking hardware resources that make it all possible. One way of showing this objectively is to look at the power required to deliver the performance. The 5770 offers roughly the...

The card at a glance For our tests, HIS supplied us with their Radeon HD 5770 H577F1GDG. It’s not really an original card since it uses the ATI stock design. The size, cooler, and clocks are the same as on a standard Radeon HD 5770. The rear...

The 5770 benefits from a full complement of 10 SIMD (single instruction multiple data) engines, which is the same number of SIMD engines found in the R770 and R790, better known as the Radeon HD 4870 and 4890. As a...

AMD have just released another new graphics card into the budget conscientious market with the ATI Radeon HD 5770. Unlike the Radeon HD 5870 which was released by AMD a month ago, this card targeted the high-end video card market and was generally out...

ATI’s HD 5850 is an undoubted triumph. The 5770, not quite so. Indeed, the manufacturer’s own HD 4870 knocks it for six. But ATI’s unlikely to shoot itself in the foot for too long, and we can imagine the 4870 will disappear from the...

Compared to its most direct competitors, the Radeon HD 5770 has painted a rather strange performance picture - it's anything but a Mona Lisa, but it's not disastrous. As a result, we're frankly not sure where it stands at the moment because...
