7770 wins out, its better supported, updated, and way higher clock speed.

Okay, so recently I've gotten my hands on a xfx radeon hd 6850. I'm kind of new to building computers and such, and I wondered if I should sell it, or switch my sapphire radeon hd 7770 out for it.

7770 would probably be better.

The 7770 wins, hell I bet it could slap a bit of sense into the 6950. The drivers are a lot more stable in the 7k series.

Okay, thank you all for your input. I'm pretty emotionally attached to my 7770 anyway, it looks badass, and it's my first graphics card. Can't say I have any complaints about it.
