While the PowerColor AX5770 1GBD5-PPGV2 performed well enough to play in almost all of our game titles (you might need to lower the settings a little on the DX11 titles), it only just kept up with its competition, the GTS450. We have seen the AX5770 P...

PowerColor's HD 5770 PCS++ is an excellent addition to the HD 5770 market. It is the only HD 5770 that comes with a Volterra voltage regulator which allows dynamic software voltage control. While this might not be of great importance for most normal us...
Abstract: Therefore, the dilemma comes down to the price: the 10€ you have to add for PowerColor’s PCS+ will be swiftly mourned away by the quiet, fast and very well-cooled graphics card and the free game you will receive. Those on the hunt for extravagant components will opt for MSI’s “hawk”, although this is definitely not..
Abstract: PowerColor Radeon HD 5770 PCS+ 1024MB is a similarly good product which is also overclocked. Unfortunately, it's also badly packed. They should secure cards better to avoid transportation problems.
We quite like the Radeon HD 5770 as a GPU – for anyone who can't stretch to £200 for the Radeon HD 5850 it offers plenty of performance for £120.PowerColor has tweaked the reference design to deliver more performance, but some of the other adjustments are...
So overall the PowerColor HD Radeon 5770 PCS+ certainly is a nice performing card. If you can find it priced not to steeply then you'll gain a lot of fun and performance from it and yeah, it comes stacked with features alright. The custom cooler is no...

AMD's Radeon HD 5770 offers a healthy performance boost of more than 25% over the last generation HD 4770. It also brings several new features to the table like EyeFinity, support for DirectX 11 and improved HDMI audio. Another area that has been work...
The PowerColor HD 5770 PCS+ is a good all-around video card. It's the kind of video card that you can expect to get the job done, when it comes to gaming. As far as this reviewer is concerned, the current high-end starts at the HD 5770. If you want a...
Solid accessory pack, Great operating temperatures, Low energy requirements (PowerPlay), ATI Eyefinity, Free Dirt 2 game, Quiet fan noise...
Average overclockability...
Overall, the PowerColor PCS+ Radeon HD 5770 with 1GB of memory performed very strong - not quite always at the level of a Radeon HD 4890, but on occasion matching or even beating the Vapor-X from Sapphire. Performing around the level of a GTX260, but ...
Abstract: PowerColor give us a higher factory overclock and following a BIOS update near silent operation which makes this card even more desirable than the standard card from other manufacturers. Sapphire offer similar..
