SecurityAMD Radeon HD 5770 Hits Streets Early.
Hot off the burner!

The card is a follow-up to the previously--and recently--launched Radeon HD 5870. Our own Chris Angelini benched the beast a few days ago and found it to not only be a top runner, but also hand"s down the fastest single GPU solution you can buy today.
The link, here, may very well go offline any minute. But we"re providing a screenshot here just in case.
