As I say in the posts I linked, a pair of 5770's is about the same speed as a single 280X, so yes, I'd get a pair of 280X cars over a pair of 5770 cards. I have a pair of Sapphire 280X cards which work very well.
There is a significant cost difference though between a pair of 5770s and a single Sapphire 280X card.

Thanks again Rob,
So a pair of these would work well then?

They are not available from NewEgg but are else where for under $200 each. I have a 550 power supply, so I will need to go bigger there too if I run 2
AND, just to get this straight, 5770 run OOB. 280x need clover.
