I am building a gaming PC and have decided I might need a more powerful video card. I was planning on getting Buy the XFX Radeon HD 5770 1GB DDR5 PCIe w/EyeFinity at TigerDirect.ca But I realize it might just be best to spend the extra 150 and get Newegg.ca - XFX HD-585X-ZAFC Radeon HD 5850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card w/ Eyefinity Any thoughts?
