AMD is apparently cutting costs, and MSI's HD 5770 isn't going to be the only HD 5770 with a cooler similar to the HD 5750. According to our info every AMD AIB partner will have a similar card, and Sapphire has already silently announced its own.

The cooler on HD 5750 is apparently enough for the HD 5770 as well and after all it should be cheaper than the original blower fan. This isn't a non-reference in house design as it comes directly from AMD, and we are sure that we'll see the real non-reference cards sooner than later. As a matter of fact, the shroud is the only similarity with the HD 5750 cooler, while the heatsink under it is changed.

Sapphire calls its card the Sapphire HD5770 1GB GDDR5 PCIE "New Edition" and other than the new cooler the card keeps the reference clocks of 850MHz for the core and 4800MHz for 1GB of GDDR5 memory.

The surprise is that MSI decided to change this design a bit and went for its Seaweed fan which should provide higher airflow and keep the noise down.
