Okay thanks! I Probally won't need to overclock it but who knows! And thanks for all the help everyone! I basically think the lifetime warranty is nescesary for it. Plus I really like xfx's tech support area. Thanks to all that helped!
But I just want it to play Empire total War and Napoleon Total and probally most future TotalWar games on Ultra settings w/out having it lag or crash or what not. Will it handle that w/out OverClocking?
Maybe the monitoring device on the Graphics Card(Thingy... lol) has overheated when you have OC'ed it. Or it just requires a system restart(I assume you've already tried that but hey, no harm in putting it out there)
Those are just some of my suggestions.
I am not BY FAR a Expert or even...

So what is the big deal with cooling compared to a warranty? The XFX has a lifetime warranty, those have maybe a 3yr one. So I've read that cooling doesn't make too much of a difference as long as the card runs within operating temps shouldnt it be fine?
Also the MSI has only one DVI output not...
Okay, so theres no real difference. That's what I thought. Well I might just go with them, but I've used XFX with my other cards in the past, and they have been good so who knows! Thanks for everyones input! I started with a lot of cards and narrowed it down to 1 card but 2 brands! HA!!
Yes I have a 450W PSU. I used newegg's power supply "Calculator" and it estimated around 425W so I should be good. But Oilfieldtrash what is your suggestion on getting the 5770 from XFX or HIS? Could you explain the difference to me. (Other than its a diff brand)
So what is the difference between the brands of "XFX" and "HIS" they look like the same card but the HIS is only $130.....
And thanks for your replies! I am most likely getting the 5770 but now I'm unsure of which brand!!
