^^ But you should get the AMD config that cilus has suggested coz amd config performs better in low to mid budget segment. Say if you have a budget of around 4-10K for a cpu then you should get AMD config without a second thought.

BTW, get palit GTS 250 512MB GDDR3 instead of HD4850
and CM 500W Extreme Power Plus for PSU.

 

[Krow]

@ rajeev Intel at your budget is worse than AMD. If you want Intel, up your budget to about 55-60k, where it is better.

Replace the motherboard with MSI 785GM-E51 @ 4.6k and ram with 2x2GB DDR3.

@ Cilus Street price of DDR2 RAM is like 2k for 2GB! 2x2GB for 2k are ancient days now.

 

[thunder.02dragon]

@topgear
Why GTS250?

 

[topgear]

GTS 250 performs better than HD4850

wat's d price of GTS 250 !?

 

[thunder.02dragon]

I disagree...
there ismax 2-5% difference on lower resolutions
But on higher Resolutions the HD4850 shines very well..and as by all said the Rendering AI is much better than the GTS 250
On higher resolution the HD4850 is far more better than the GTS 250
After all also like to add that the GTS250 has far old architecture (2-2.5years to be precise) of the 9800 the G92b series where as the HD4850 is well new just 1year 4-5months old
GTS 250 is DX10 while HD4850 is DX 10.1 (*keznews.com/3242_Forget_about_DirectX_10_-_Introducing_DirectX_10_1_Preview_for_Windows_Vista_SP1)
I know that there is little difference but the added raytracing or such dont remember exactly etc features are added on 10.1

I also agree there is Physx is added as this s u c k s of Nvidia

Lastly the price
HD4850 512 costs 6700+taxes (Sapphire + Powercolor)
GTS 250 512 MB 7100+taxes (Zotac)
XFX is well higher than this
Not sure of the Palit though..

I see there no wise decision of going for the GTS250(Rebrandred 9800GTX+ 55nm)...

 

[rajeev.mn]

hi guys plz tell me hows this config..

core i5 750
intel DP55wb
kingstone 2*2GB DDR3

so help me out with some good GPU.

plzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....

 

[thunder.02dragon]

Cut that Intel board and add Gigabyte P55 UD2 instead..
PSU: Gofor Corsair VX450
GPU: Mention Budget.
I would like to add..if not games get the Quadro/FireGL series Cards..
Still
GTX260/275 In my opinion..
For budget lower than 7-8K get the HD4850 1GB.. mind please try to buy with more rams..

@thunder.02dragon

hi mate
whats wrong with the intel board?
its around 1.5k cheaper than the gigabyte and if ya dont plan to overclock the intel p55 is fine.
By the way can the vx450 power the i5 along with a gtx 260 with no future upgrades in mind?
Finally how much does the kingston 2 * 2gb 1333 ddr3 cost?

 

[thunder.02dragon]

Well I personally dont like intel boards..bad layout, features..bad bios layout..not neat bios options too..
Have you seen that mobo..totally crap..
VX450 on such circumstances ios enough(mind none is planning to add more HDDs near future)
Kingston 2600/-+taxes.. each

@vicky
where were you last tym incase of VX450 order?

 

[topgear]

^^ Completely agree with you on intel original mobos.

1. Upto 1680*1050 ( 4xAA ) 512 and 1GB GTS 250 can beat HD4580 1GB ( 10% and 13.5% )
2. At 1920*1200 ( NO AA ) 512 and 1GB GTS 250 can beat HD4580 1GB ( 11% and 13% )
3. At 1920*1200 ( 4AA ) 512MB and 1GB HD4850 beats GTS 250 512MB and 1GB respectively ( 2% and 1.5% )


Note : 9800GTX+ 512MB is used to measure the performance of GTS 250

GTS 250 1GB consumes 7 watts more than HD4850 1GB ( GDDR3 )
GTX 9800GTX 512 MB consumes 8 watts more than HD4850 512MB ( GDDR3 )

HD4850 has DX 10.1 but but who really cares about DX10.1 when it comes to gaming performance and more game uses physyX ( which adds more real time effects ) than directx 10.1. Also GTS 250 has the nvidia's famous CUDA

*www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-radeon,2326-16.html

@ vickybat - you should get gigabyte mobo but if you want to save every penny then you can go with intel mobo

 

[thunder.02dragon]

@topgear..
Please don't follow only one review there are loads of review which clearly shows that HD4850 is not that much slows and even excells gts 250 in many cases..on high resolutions.
After all all are going to play all maxed out in Full HD.

Well there is some
Nvidia Physx = = ATi Havoc(Still on devlopment Damn!!)
Nvidia CUDA = = ATi Stream
Dx 10.1 has better visuals than Dx10 rendered frames.

 

[topgear]

^^ Yup buddy. I follow at-least 3-4 review and many discussion on forums. But it's not possible to post all the comparision data in here

& I agree with you that HD4850 excels at higher resolution with high settings and I'm aware of ATI's havoc and stream but the only hitch the app/game support for those features are too less.

Yesterday I went to Chandni to buy a monitor.
I was looking for Samsung SyncMaster D957DF and Samsung SyncMaster 755DF.
I desperately want to but one of those CRT.
I visited many shops but unfortunately no one selling CRT monitors.
I have very limited budget.....
I have 12K for both monitor and GPU ATM.
Today's good LCDs are beyond my budget.
What should I do now ?
