Well here is my thought...

I just replaced a GTX 295 (which is 2x GTX 260s?) with a single 5870 and I love the 5870 so much that I got another one.

So for you, I'd probably get 1x 5870 which gives you room to grow to another one if you need to.

Oh, and a single 5870 can run at least 20 WoWs, so I imagine the 5770 could do at least 10.
