It's just the drivers for these cards that plain suck. i kinda regret gettin 2x 5770 instead of another 4870 but it's a done deal now. Let's hope ATI will come up with a driver that will solve all this so we can start enjoying our cards.
That's your hypothesis. My card(5870) won't run stressful 3d titles at it's advertised clocks. However if I clock both the memory and core down 7% it plays everything flawlessly. Is this a driver issue? Unlikely.
More like hardware that does not live up to the hype.
