The 4870 may be similar in price/performance but is there a gain to be had in terms of power-requirements and heat/noise from going with the 40nm 5770? This is becoming an important consideration for lots of people fed up with having to turn the volume up full on their PC's just to drown out the sound of all the fans.

Power draw
Bassey - thanks for your comment. We've added in power figures to our review and, as you can see, the HD 5770 compares favourably with the HD 5870 and well with most other cards on the market, too - hopefully this helps!

AIT CrossFireX
What's better: performance, cost, 2 x HD5770 (£120 each) using CrossFireX or single HD5850 (£220) or HD5870 (£300)?
