Well I ordered the 5850 in hopes of running more silent and just using one. The one in my first post since more reading showed it is a mixture of toxic and vapor x cooling.
I Didn't want to run crossfire because it heats up and then it gets louder. Running one of them is quiet.
I will RMA the 5770's back to newegg even though I have to pay 51$ for restocking and 28$ tax, once I get the 5850.
If I will see which I like. I choose a single 5850 since I really would like to use my creative sound card, instead of my on board audio which isn't so great.
Also I hope its more quiet, since I am stuck in between two rooms and other people get annoyed with the noise coming from my room. I don't like to be rude to my family so I am changing it.
If anyone wants to buy one of my 5770 (2) I would be willing to sell it for $145~$150 if anyone wants to buy it. PM me about it before I RMA in 3-4 days. (Or else I am stuck only getting 130$ for both by newegg.)
They are great cards but Crossfire in my mobo makes me not have a pci slot for my sound card and if i do, i get huge heat issues = louder fan sound. |
