Purchasing a new system this week. What do you think would be the better buy? Price is pretty much the same.

2x ATI Radeon HD5770 CrossFire. Better performance but will require higher wattage.

should be enough, but double check the amperage rating on the PSU...

just out of curiosity, what resolution will you be running natively?
