AMD’s Radeon HD 5770 & 5750: DirectX 11 for the Mainstream Crowd

Resident Evil 5
As is often the case with console ports, the latest installment of Capcom’s popular survival horror series is not particularly GPU starved, and can crank out high numbers on just about anything.
The 5770 goes back to losing, but this time it’s only by a few percent. The GTX 260 wins here yet again though.
It’s another win for the 5750 though; 6-10%. It and the GTS 250 are virtually indistinguishable above 1680.
Finally, another $100 on a 5850 buys you 40%-50% more performance.

The 5700 series have the same improved adaptive antialiasing with shaders like the 5800 series ?There could be a antialiasing graph with diferent resoutions and antialiasing types for each card in reviews.

I may be in the minority, but I've already ordered a 5750. For a SOHO box used for only occasional gaming, it was the most future-proofed option (DX11) that also has low enough idle draw that it actually will save me enough money over the life of the card to justify any price difference with a 48xx card. Would I have loved 10% more performance, sure, but this isn't a bad blend of efficiency and longevity.yacoub - Wednesday, October 14, 2009 - link
imho, it's perfect for that situation.Those of us who have a gaming PC with a DX10 card in it are the ones who find this 5700 series less than stellar.

But those of us that have a mid-range PC with yesteryear's DX10 card (3870) find it appealing. :)SantaAna12 - Wednesday, October 14, 2009 - link
are you filtering out comments these days?SantaAna12 - Wednesday, October 14, 2009 - link
what up AT?ive been lookin at your recent AMD rants, and its getting tiresome. They paying u the big bucks these days? when you only compare AMD cards against AMD cards you are doing your site a disservice. When you show CF but no SLI you are showing me a new AT.
I have expected more in the past. You goin the route of TOMS?

As we noted in the article, the CF configuration is mostly for academic reasons. I don't seriously expect anyone to pick it over a single card.Anyhow, what would you like to see? I have the SLI data for the 275 and the 285, but since we've already established that the 260C216 is faster than the 5770, it won't really tell you anything useful.

"NVIDIA would need to shave the price down to justify its purchase once more (something they have not done on the GTX series in response to the 5870 and 5850)."------------------
I'd like to comment on this for just a moment. Where I live we haven't seen much stock on the new dx11 cards yet.. however, Suddenly there's a slew of highly priced 295's and other top end Nvidia products that these stores were not stocking.
My bet is that .. people walking in and making a purchase find out that they can't get that coveted new DX11 card so they opt out for one of those. So in a sense Nvidia would be riding on the coattails of Ati's new popular line that .. just doesn't have the availability. They haven't had to lower prices yet because they may be benifiting by the lack of stocked cards.
Make sense?

No, it doesn't make sense :)Why would you spent 3-400 for something that you don't want at first place? Why just not keep your money until you actually can buy what you want? We are not talking about 10 bucks, it is way bigger chunk...
