    Powercolor HD 5770 PCS+ reviews

    It has a shorter PCB than a normal HD5770,lower power consumption and a quieter cooler:

    It comes with DiRT 2 so it is actually one of the better value HD5770 1GB cards out there:

    Re: Powercolor HD 5770 PCS+ reviews

    I notice none of thoes reviews have looked at heat vs the 5770 rev 1 and rev2 coolers
    just from the "look" of it the cooler doesn't inspire me with confidence.

    But can't you get a 5770 for about £115 now? Thus you're effectively paying £16 for Dirt 2? Not bad if you want the game though.

    Re: Powercolor HD 5770 PCS+ reviews

    The copy of Dirt2 came with my HD 5770 PCS+ comes via Steam i.e. no physical media in the box only a card with a serial/activation code on it.

    Before this card, I had a x1950 XT with an Arctic Cooling Accelero fitted to it, the new card's cooler is very marginally quieter than the x1950 XT was.
