Hi,

Biostar G 31 D M7 motherboard, 1 Gb DDR 2 Transcend ram, 320 gb WD SATA hard drive and

Iball LPE223-400 power supply. Monitor is samsung 17" Syncmaster 773s.


I am planning to buy XFX ATI 4650 OR XFX GT240. Which card should support more efficienty

with the above config?

I am willing to play games like Crysis.

Please advice me on the above given cards and suggest me a good graphics card that should

run on with above config flawlessly.

Thanks in advance.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

you have cm extreme power 500w psu
which actually is capable of 400w without fireworks
i will suggest Sapphire HD5670 512mb @5.3k
equivalent to 9800gt
dx11 advantage
very less power consumption
little or no heat compared to 9800gt
lesser cost than 9800gt

Look thisSapphire HD 5670 1GB Review Page 2 - Closer Look: (The Video Card) - Overclockers Club
Sapphire 5670 cards only requires 61 watt on load and 14watt on idle.Thats good news.So my cm extreme 500 watt can handle well.:twisted:

better order from IT Wares, Mumbai. if you order, ask them about the road tax issue first. if no need for it, get it. i think local shops will sell the 1Gb version, which is total waste when the 512Mb performs just 2-3% lower & cost 1-1.5k less.

who told so? even with 400W being pulled off (a GTS250 with a moderate setup will use that much) will result in a ***BANG***. this is not a landmine that needs some definite pressure to blow. just use it in an entrylevel system & it'll go up in smoke. its just luck. some goes early, some lately. but truth is, all EM Extremes goes off with a few years.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

even VX450W is enough. VX550W if you want something like GTX470 or HD5870. for rest, VX450W will do easily.
