Default HD 5850 takes long...
The webshop where I ordered my Radeon 5850 says it will take very long until it finally arrives, so they asked me if I want to replace it for an other card. I was thinking about 2 5750s in Crossfire, or buy a 5770 now, and sell it, buy another one. What would you guys do?

It may take a month before the 5850 arrives, and the 5750's in Crossfire have approx. the same price and performance.

A single card will always win over Crossfire/SLI if they're the same price/performance. I would just wait, to be honest. Good things take time. Either that, or get a 5870.

The 5870 is too expensive, and my dad doesn't want to order at two different shops (*sigh*). So I guess wait is the best option then.

Tell him its cheaper for the video card at one place over another. That might change his tune.
