- Hi, I am not savvy with computer hardware and upgrades and this is my first time at upgrading a video card. My system is the desktop XPS 430. I bought an ATI Radeon HD 5770 by Sapphire and I already have a 375W power supply which is what came with my computer.
- Question: Q: Is the 5770 a single or dual slot card? And what is the most powerful single slot currently available for the Mac Pros? Several, Mac OS X (10.6.4) Posted on Oct 12, 2010 10:27 AM. Reply I have this question too I have this question too.

XFX was at first only selling NVIDIA video cards. Over the last few years, the company has added a full assortment of ATI branded Radeon video cards covering all sorts of uses from HTPC to high-end gaming. The latest video card to come from XFX is the Radeon HD 5770 in a single slot flavor.
The new card is available in a version with five mini DisplayPorts while the basic version has a single mini-display port. The single slot card has a special heat sink and fan setup that has 15% more heatpipe surface area allowing the card to run cooler inside a cramped chassis. The special heat sink system is also designed for low noise with up to 23.5dB lower noise production than the dual slot card.
