from raw penformance the cf 5750s are usually quite a bit better, but at such high resolution the 128bit bus might start to show it's limits.

i'd go with the 5830 but deffinitely NOT if it's $250.

i'd get this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127491&cm_re=5830-_-14-127-491-_-Product $185 after rebate and the cooler on it is damn good

If you are going to be using an Eyefinity setup I highly recommend you pay slightly more for an HD5850;

That is not only the cheapest one but it has one of the best coolers and allows you to control the core voltage for a huge overclock(35-40%)
FYI almost all of the poor reviews on newegg are from people complaining that it didn't work with past versions of MSI Afterburner and can be ignored.

it actually did work, all they had to do is change enablevoltagecontrol from 0 to 1 in the config file instead of the afterburner interface
