topic!
I wondered about this question for so long ... cause about prices, 2 5770 cost here the same as a single 5870, what would be better to buy. or as the qestion on the topic said, what will be better!?

Casey Anthony was acquitted

Casey Anthony was acquitted in July at a trial in Florida of a charge that she murdered her daughter, Caylee, in a case that drew Cheap Designer Shoes nationwide attention after Casey Anthony reported the toddler missing in 2008.

I would go with a single 5870

I would go with a single 5870 because it's 256bit and it a screamingly fast video card. You can then always add another 5870 (when the prices drop) later down the road.

I'd get the 5870 to be honest

I'd get the 5870 to be honest because why pay for two budget cards that are much slower when you can have a the single fastest card to date?
I think the performance of two 5770's might end up matching the 5850 if your lucky.
5770 is slower then the 4870 and we all know that the 5870 beats the 4870x2 by a smaller amount. So I would highly doubt that 2 5770's are faster then the 5870.

I'd never go with a dual gpu set up I think its just a scam but thats just me. I'd only get dual videocards if someone gave them to me for free. lol
