Sam st smc the model number shows GIGABYTE GV-R775OC-1GD but i checked at gigabyte website there is no GIGABYTE GV-R775OC-1GD model
the 7750 version card is named GV-R775OC-1GI.
note again GV-R777OC-1GD is the name of gigabyte 7770 card , so which card is smc selling ?

most probably only a typo - on primeabgb it's mentioned as GV-R775OC-1GI ;-)

Well in my consideration, both are good cards. If you go for 550Ti then you will get more Memory Bandwidth and Pixel Rate, whereas 6770 can be considered for better texel rate. If you have a weak PSU , then go for ATI HD6770. Though the power consumption rate difference is just 8 Watt.

My preference would be GTX 550Ti

The power consumption difference between a 55TI and HD6770 is much more than 8w - it's actually 40-50W. Even a HD6790 consumes around ~30W less power than 550Ti and performs better ;-)

These things don't matter. Only thing matters is what frames per second you get in each cards. Only this gives you the right idea. :)

What's the point of having a huge surplus of memory bandwidth when the GPU isn't utilising it?

HD 6770 = GTX 550 Ti in performance at a much lower power consumption.
