You are planning to purchase the new graphic card for your desktop computer system as your computer system currently has the onboard graphic card solution. You have selected the XFX ATI Radeon HD 5770 and HIS HD 4890 iCooler x4 graphic cards and not able to choose anyone from this for your computer system. Well according to me both the graphic cards are very good and have speciification almost similar. The XFX ATI Radeon HD 5770 has the support for DirectX 11 whereas the HIS HD 4890 iCooler x4 graphic card has the support for the DirectX 10.1.

I think you should go for the XFX ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphic card because this is one of the newest graphic card available in the market by the XEX ATI. Altough both graphic cards are from the ATI itself. Both the graphic cards are having the built-in HDMI port for the connection with the HD devices. The HIS HD 4890 iCooler x4 graphic card has one advantage over the XFX ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphic card, The HIS HD 4890 iCooler x4 graphic card has Unified Video Decoder 2 (UVD 2) for Blu-ray and HD Video as compared to the XFX ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphic card which has only for the HD videos.
