Hi pros I saw many kinds of HD5770 on the market. There're HIS, Sapphire, XFX and many more. Each of their design is totally different. So I confused.
Here is the pictures:
Sapphire's HD5770

XFX HD5770

And the single layer of XFX 5770?


And lots more...but I prefer Sapphire and XFX. As you can see there're lots of it. So...Which should I buy? I'm totally confused. One more question is I don't know what the seller sell which one of these GPU's.

Should have kept this all in one thread.

Here are some reviews on the 5770 and its performance.

As far as which one, it doesnt really matter to be honest. Pick one with a solid warranty (go to mfg website and look) and MY preference is one that exhausts outside the case

I've been running the card linked below, XFX 5770 for almost a year now, I modded the bios to run 3d at the max overdrive settings (960/1445) and could not be happier. by not using overdrive I sidestepped some of the issues of clock rates not being reset correctly at times. I'm also a fan of the versions that exhaust the heat out the back, not back into the case.
