Sapphire HD 5770 alternative?

9 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/sapphire-hd-5770-alternative.141727/

I am about to get my computer assembled with a Sapphire HD 5770, but unfortunately the person who was assembling it said that this graphic card is not available or the production has been stopped. He suggested me Sapphire HD 6850. Its price is higher than my previous choice. So,
-Please suggest me a graphics card that is in the price range of HD 5770, and has same or higher features.
-Please tell me that do I need to even change my PSU choice? The one I am going to use is of 500W(from cooler master, I guess).

I am going to use it with following, if that helps:
AMD Athlon II x4 820
Benq G2220HD

Also, is HD 5770's production has been stopped?

PS: I am planning to play games like GTA 4 & Crysis on my PC

most dealers will sell you extreme power. efficiency is low & under load it blows up. though its covered by warranty but the think about the hassle of going to service center to get it fixed.

hd6770 = rebranded & little tweaked hd5770. same performance.

Hmm... I see.

One last question:
If I choose HD 6850, should I still go for corsair VX450 or will I have to change it too?

You can use it

Just dont overclock the card and proccesor

It should be sufficient. As you have a Full HD monitor, better to go for 6850 to enjoy gaming at your monitor's native resolution with high settings.
