Neoseeker – Video cards are one of the most important pieces of hardware in any gaming rig. You can’t trust your high end beast with just any GPU. You need something that you know, without a shadow of doubt, will rip through any game you throw at it. The 5XXX series ATI cards are the current favorite contenders of this challenge. However, there are quite a few of them, and choosing which card is right for you might not be so easy.

The 5XXX series ATI cards have been out for a while now and as a result prices have started to drop. However, the cards will still cost a pretty penny. A user looking for a DX 11 capable card might not want to spend $300 for a 5850. Then again they might want something a bit more powerful then a 5770.
