Test System Specs & 3Dmark 11

Please note that we've only had time to test the Radeon HD 7770 and HD 7750 in half a dozen games as we received our sample just 24 hours before the official launch. We also skipped over the overclocking tests, though we do plan to look at the Crossfire performance of both cards in the coming weeks which will give us an opportunity to look at OC results as well.
