The same HD 5750 shroud

We also managed to score a picture of Powercolor's 'new' HD 5770 as well, and this card is the same as the Sapphire's. The design comes from AMD, and according to sources close to AMD, this should be considered a reference design and not something that AIB partners decided to do.

Although we haven't received the exact specs of the card, we are pretty sure that Powercolor will keep the reference clocks as well, as this is simply a cost cut in order to earn some extra bucks for AMD.

As we already wrote, the shroud of the cooler is the only thing that is similar to the HD 5750 as the heatsink below it is a bit different, or to be precise a bit more 'Zalmanish'.

All of these cards should start appearing in retail pretty soon, and we are sure that more partners will join in soon enough.
