Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I don't think there is an AGP version of 7900GT.And even if it is present it will be very high priced.

Better upgrade your mobo first to one supporting PCIe cards.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i'm building a new PC (on a very tight budget) and need a decent graphics card.....as it seems, the 8600 is already quite popular,but i was told that the the ATi Radeon X1950 was better (unfortunately there are 4 different flavours and i wasnt told which one) and also just in my range (no more than Rs.8,000). could somebody verify this.Also my dealer told me that the Sparkle 8600GT was available for about Rs.6870 (incl. of all taxes and stuff.......in Gujarat).Is it good? and which other brands should i look at?

Also, the 7900GS too is said to be somewhere near my range.But i think the 8600 is a much better deal. Any idea on pricing?

Cheers

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

PALIT 8600gt is available at around 5.5k and XFX one at around 6k.Overclocked 8600gt easily beats 7900gt and provides DX10 compatibility too so 8600gt is preferred over 7900gt anyday.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

guys i bought 8600GT xfx 256 mb ddr3 for 6,800Rs

u may also get 8600 GT from BIG with 512 ddr2 for 6500RS

but always consider for futurre... spending few hundreds and investing in good ddr3 card is worth than going for ddr2..

there are also other company such as zebronics providing cheap cards..

but have in mind cheaper the card.. more u sacrifice on performance..

i was tempted to go for 512 MB but DIGITIANS helped me .. and now i play games with 256 mb ddr3 with all setting high..

next for me is installing VISTA and see how this 8600 GT performs on DX 10 !!!

no man...even an overclocked cant stand near a 7900GT & not even near a 7900GS....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^+1. i agree. 8600 gt is a mid-range card while 7900 is a high end one. i odn't think even a oc'ed 8600 can match up to a 7900

The only advantage the 8600GT holds is "DX10".....otherwise 7900GS will smoke it without any issues!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

guys to be honest i dont think when u buy a gfx in mind u say "I want to play on vista!!!" do you?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Did anyone get COH with 8600 GT ? I would have bought it myself if I had known COH is bundled with it ..

 

[entrana]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

coh is supposed to be bundled with it but people here are getting lost planet

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I have ordered Geforce 8600 GT.
Hope it will be a good choice but what to do with My Geforce 5200 FX?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

they are bundling both COH & Lost planet with xfx 8600 GT so you can get either coh or lost planet.

Now for those guys who don't read & still saying 7900 GT smokes a overclocked 8600 GT first of all you guys can't even read, this is the 4th time i am posting 7900 GT can't beat 8600 GT in shader based game(I.E OBLIVION) , i have posted links for this twice now so if you want proof just search this thread. with 163.71 drivers the memory leak in 86xx series & 88xx series has been almost fixed & with the ability to over clock shader clock on riva tuner , 8600 GT overclocked can beat 7900 GT in almost every shader based games which are coming out, also its true 7900 GT can get about 8-10 fps more in games like F.E.A.R, doom 3, COH but 8600 GT gives playable FPS in those games at 1280 x 1024 anyway with max settings but in new upcoming games 7900 GT has fallen behind of 8600 GT cause most of the new games are shader based, so paying 10k + for 7900 GT right now is the most stupid thing out there....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
