Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Thanks a lot @tkin for your detail post, it surely help noob like me and others.

Thanks @ topgear for your input, and yes Aug'09 digit did mention the clock speed 2200 MHz in their budget segment card shoot out,

In that category they awarded though Power Cooler HD4850, any how it may be purely games perspective.

Will go for Palit GTS 250 512 Mb though,but also hunt for MSI too....

thank you all for clearing my doubts....

Go with HD4850 or GTS 250. Both are good. Both have similar performance. They should come comfortably under Rs.8K.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

anyone??? post #10309... that guy is waitin for my answer...

For 10K get Sapphire Palit or MSI GTS 250 around 7.5 ( 1GB one ) along with Gigabyte superb 460W PSu around 2.5K. If you will get a DVI to HDMI cable bundled with it.

You can use HD5570 without any prob with your mobo ad current HD5570's price is around 5K.

my friend owns a 32" plasma screen and its full HD... he need a decent card which can render with minimal loss.... a card with HDMI input is preferred.... budget is within 10K and also suggest a PSU for the same...

Thanks...

considering ur budget u have got a wide range
1.XFX GTS 250 1gb ~10k
2.sapphire hd 5770 1gb ~10.5k
3.9800 gt 1gb ~9k

any psu of 550W or more will b more than enuf
Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 600W – 3,400/
Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 500W – 2,800/-

CAUTION:since u have 32" screen plasma ,what u need is more amount of memory instead of speed:smile:

Piyush those CM Extreme PSUs are doubtful. Many cases of them not delivering true under stress/load.

+1. & all the above mentioned cards sucks a good amount of power under loads. i doubt these PSU's wil make it for any long. run LinPack or any other stress test & these PSU wil not even make it past initial hours also.

What! XFX GTS 250 1GB for 10K. That's useless. better search for MSI Twin Frozr Edition or else get Palit. Palit GTS 250 1GB E-Green edition comes for around Rs.6,800. At Rs.10,500 one can get an GTX 260 216 which is also a good card.

For PSU, CM Xtreme is a big NO. Stick with Corsair VX 450W. Plenty of head room & safe reliable power.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

HD4890 can be compared with Nvidia GTX 260 is surely better than 4850/70.

Antec and VIP psus are not readily available everywhere and for VIP psus are not that much good like corsairs :p

Is basically an overclocked HD4870. And has more space to be OC'ed. Great card.

why only Nvidia Geforce Card? Why not ATI Radeon cards? card which suites your budget well is XFX HD4650 512MB DDR2 or Asus HD4650 512Mb DDR2. both priced around 3k-3.3k. else Sparkle Geforce 9500GT 512Mb DDR2 should cost around 2.7k.
