ATI Radeon Premium logo

XFX uses the reference card design with a 2-slot cooler for the cooling. They have the RADEON HD 5770 logo on the center of the card, with the XFX Play Hard logo on top of that. The ATI RADEON Premium Graphics logo is on the bottom of the front of the card. The fan is on the right side of the card and is a 47-fin fan.

The top of the card has two Crossfire bridges that allow the card to connect to up to three other HD 5770 cards to run in CrossfireX mode. CrossfireX of two or three cards mode will be tested on another review but three HD 5770 cards should perform like a HD 5870 card or better as it has more memory bandwidth and fillrate.

The rear of the card has a 6-pin power connector. The modern mainstream card needs at least an extra 6-pin power connector to work properly as the power requirements of a high-performance card are more than the 75W a PCI Express connector can provide to the card. The XFX card has two DVI ports, a HDMI port and a DP port. You can hook up to three monitors to the card with a Display Port monitor and a combination of the other two connections.
