I've found two local sellers and I'm wondering what do you think is a better deal not which one is the more advanced card. The XFX 5870 is used but in excellent condition and the MSI R770 Hawk is new.

MSI R770 Hawk: $108

XFX Radeon 5870: $180

Intel x58 express mobo

3GB DDR3 1066MHz 240 pin (replacing with Crucial 12GB DDR3 next week)

750GB ATA hard drive

ATI Radeon HD 4850, 512 MB

Why does it say $202 in the link for the 5770? That is robbery!
The HD5870 is twice the performance of the HD5770 but $180 is a little steep for a used card comparing http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
