5870 or 7970 ?
#2
Yeah, a 7970 will be faster than a 5870, it's a better choice.
A 7970 is hotter than a 5870 though, by around 20-70W.
The higher the core frequency the better, if it stays stable.
Noise is usually written on the product page, but I can assure you the lousy stock turbine CAN be annoying.
Aim for two or more fans variant (assuming you have fans inside your case to blow the hot air out).
Oh, and don't forget the warranty(2y min).
