    Ridiculous deal on hd5770 found. $102. Crossfire now?

    I need a gpu update. Currently running an 8800gt on a 25" monitor. Games are getting choppy

    I have a p5w dh deluxe motherboard and want to crossfire two 1gb hd5770 cards (charts show performance is nearly equal to a single $400 dollar hd5870)

    This would give a savings of roughly $200 dollars.

    What else besides the two graphics cards do I need to purchase in order to CF these two cards on my current motherboard?

    Thanks!

    edit: the specs on that card are kinda funny (ddr3 sdram) while all other cards have gddr5?

    looks like they mislabeled the GPU. I cross referenced the SKU and it is the lower 5570 model. sry.

    thread closed lol.
