Sapphire ATI HD5770 FleX 1GB GDDR5 Supports up to 4 Monitors

The SAPPHIRE HD 5770 FleX is the first card on the market to support three DVI monitors in ATI Eyefinity mode and deliver a true SLS (Single Large Surface) work area without the need for costly active adapters. The majority of HD 5000 series cards with ATI Eyefinity support require either the third monitor to be DisplayPort compatible, or the use of an active DisplayPort to DVI or VGA adapter.

With the SAPPHIRE HD 5770 FleX, the first two monitors are connected to the DVI outputs as usual. A third DVI monitor can be connected to the HDMI output with the passive cable adapter supplied or alternatively to the DisplayPort output with a simple passive adapter. This allows users with existing DVI monitors to use three of them in ATI Eyefinity mode without any additional investment.

Four monitors can be used in ATI Eyefinity mode with this card, but in this case the fourth monitor does have to be DisplayPort connected.

With 800 Stream processors and 1GB of the latest GDDR5 memory, together with clock speeds of 850MHz core and 1200MHz (4.8GHz effective) for the memory, the SAPPHIRE HD 5770 FleX delivers excellent performance. Its dual heatpipe cooler and profiled fan with dust resisting sealed ball bearings keep the card cool yet running quietly even under load.

The SAPPHIRE HD 5770 FleX speeds through DirectX10.1, DirectX 10 and DirectX 9.0 games and applications. It also supports stunning new levels of detail, transparency and lighting effects in newer releases of software using DirectX 11. All of this comes with modest active power consumption and Dynamic Power Management delivering super low-power operation in 2D or idle.
