For a new GFX solution, would I be best off getting two of these (5770) or one of these (5850)?

Edit: I could maybe add one of either kind next year when I have the money. But it's not something to bank on atm.

5770 is near-equal to a 4870 in performance... so the more futureproof answer would be 5850 imho

EDIT: Depends on your current specs though

they're not 'evil', that's such a ridiculously naive and immature way to look at business. they just don't operate to a price:performance model. their brand has intangible 'benefits' (as defined by the consumer's demands, not the companies') that up the price for other aspects. consumer experience. aftercare service. brand aesthetics and design. operating system and platform. brand connotations and awareness. yes, the apple logo adds value- but people buy brands every day that are priced exclusively or profitably just because of the branding. it is not 'evil'. not all hardware and gadgets have to be sold purely based on their (relative) performance. please read a business studies book or something, it's not a difficult science.

Form follows function.

That's good though. I was considering this one but the reviews talking about power surges made me get the Antec. As far as looks go, this thing is godawful

Duh, welcome to Finland.

We're all asocial fucks.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

It's an MSI laptop. Expect it to die soon.
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

It has a 2 year warranty though, and I won't keep it longer than that anyway.

I think AT&T throttles my connection. During the day, regardless of who's on the internet or what's going on, I have a max upload speed of 50 kB/s. Late at night, when the majority of people are asleep, I have a max upload speed of 100 kB/s.

Probably nothing I can do aside from paying more each month, huh
