i need to know which card is best,asus ,sapphire,or xfx.getting ready to order now.im leaning toward asus.

I say Asus.
It already has a bios that allows a higher oc than Sapphire or XFX.
Sapphire or XFX bios only lets the core go to 950.
Asus (I cannot remember how far exactly) but, it is higher. Above 1100 I do believe.
You can put the Asus bios on any other 5770's but, flashing is always dangerous...

Oh, and try to get the V1 cooler.
Not the stupid Egg thingy.

Reference, so XFX can't mess it up. Double lifetime warranty for higher resell.

Get one without the core only cooler.

The reference cooler is the better of the two stock coolers offered now. For 10$ it seems worth it to me.

Asus is what I would go, a 3 year warranty is enough.
