Introduction
The ATI 5XXX series is nothing new, yet one could say that the 5XXX series currently contains some of the most popular videocards available. One reason that makes these cards so popular, other then performance, is the EyeFinity feature. The power to drive multiple monitors without needing to add another videocard is very appealing to many users. That being said, in order to power three monitors with EyeFinity, the monitors will need to sport the DisplayPort connection, at least until we come across this offering from Sapphire.
Sapphire has decided that you should be able to power three DVI monitors on a single Radeon HD 5XXX card. They've proved this by releasing the HD 5770 FLEX. The FLEX is the very first 5XXX series card with the ability to power three DVI monitors right out of the packaging. Not only that, but you'll also be able to run a fourth monitor. The fourth monitor, does however, need to have DisplayPort support.
Will this new vision of the HD 5770 be worth it's price tag? I intend to find out!

Out of curiosity, how long did it take you to do that review?
Good review! Very informative.
It went much faster then usual, because I had to hit the launch deadline. About 4 days.
