Bad news, I'm afraid. You can't Crossfire those cards. For example HD 5770 can be crossfired with a HD 5770 or a HD 5750, that's it.

do not crossfire
It's better to just buy a single GPU. 2 cards would consume a lot more power and significantly increase temperatures. Furthermore, not all games are compatible with it.

I wasn't going to crossfire the 5770 and 7770 together. I was thinking because to buy one of these cards the then buy a higher end one if i crossfire two 5770 or two 7770 i would better performance then what i have now without spending a lot of money. i am not worried about power consumption or temperature I have my computer beside my window and it stays around 15 degrees.

You would need a strong PSU and a Good Motherboard to do so. For intel , the Z77 / 787 chipset would be ideal. And for AMD , the 990FX chipset would be great

I don't think you can crossfire. I'm not an expert in it, but your second x16 slot runs in x4 mode so I doubt it would work.
Can I have your PSU's full model name ? Only some of Coolermaster's PSUs are of good quality.

Everything looks fine

But I still don't recommend you crossfire. A single GTX 660 would beat 2 HD 5770 , and furthermore, you get 2 free games
