PCI-e x8 Format will slow 8600 GT down as compared to x16 counterpart? if yes then by how much

Just half of it!
But motherboards with non-SLI supports X16 and also the SLI models support X8*2 when u add 2 cards but then also they will support X16.
There are many motherboards which supports X32 but within SLI setup.

The next gen PCI-E 2.0 will support X32 in a single mode.....acc. to some site!

U can go for 2600 Pro but buying a Dx9 card is waste now days!

They will run in DX9 mode unless and until you have DX10 compatible hardware AND Vista. In other words, if you dont have DX10 card and running games in either XP or Vista, they will by default run in DX9 mode.

One week back I upgraded my Gfx card from measly BIG 6600GT 128MB AGP to XFX 8600GTS 256MB PCIe. Got it from Lamington Road for 12000 bucks. Running fantastic on 400W PSU :)

Thank you, monkey.
btw according to yantraonline the XFX 8800GTX card(Rs. 31,320/-) is cheaper than the MSI, eVGA and POV 8800 GTX cards.
This is quite surprising as XFX is supposed to be a better company than at least MSI and POV. Is there something wrong with the XFX card that they are offering it Rs.4000-5000 cheaper ???
Any idea?

no there is nothing wrong, its xfx , it may just be cheaper

Do you mean to say that XFX is NOT a good brand ?

As far as I remember, when XFX was launched in India a little over couple of years back it got tremendous response as it provided good performance at much lower price. In other words it was very good value for money card. So if XFX is listed as cheaper alternative then it can be true. eVGA and Asus are premium brands are generally costlier as compared to others.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

XFX are getting cheaper coz its availability is growing. The brand of gcard mostly seen in shops is now XFX. So its getting cheaper. If MSI cards were also as available as XFX, then it wud even be cheaper than XFX.
