I'm considering the Radeon HD 5750 for my ex-girlfriend. SuperBiiz is offering a 10 per cent coupon on various video cards. This reduces the PowerColor AX5750 to $116.09, a few dollars cheaper than the current Newegg rebate deal for the MSI R5750. There are, however, no reviews on Newegg for the PowerColor version. The fan looks bigger than what's under the 'pod' on the MSI card. It also only offers the usual DVI, HDMI, and VGA, rather than the additional DisplayPort available on the MSI card.
I don't think DisplayPort is a necessity (will probably be using HDMI), and I doubt I'll ever use this card for Eyefinity, so perhaps one should save $6 (and without resorting to rebate!) and select the PowerColor card rather than MSI?
Another possibility is a Sapphire HD 5670 for $85.49 after coupon, though I expect, for a $30 difference, the HD 5750 is worth the additional expense.
