The fatal1ty is the fastest 8800GTS in the market which is better than the 640MB model,xfx released it because nvidia came over some performance issues with the 320MB version(that VRAM memory bug)

Offtopic:I am downloading crysis BETA and i'll break the NDA and post some info hear.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hi there.. me too bought the 8600GT recently. (and I too got the Lost Planet DVD though I think it requires an internet connection, which I dont have. so, it is not installing. If there is any way to install the game without installing the Steam application, please tell me.)
I dont know whether I could ask this qn here or not. I have a 400W psu given with my iBall Benz cabinet. Could anyone tell me if I need to upgrade my psu? if so, which psu should I buy and how much it would cost me?
Another Qn.. I have tuned the system using the nvidia control panel and it saved the profile in a separate file. Now, every now and then, the system is displaying a message that the profile is loaded. I think it is loading the profile according to the needs. Is there any way to turn off these messages? or to remove the profile and go back to my older profile?

ehh dude where did you purchase the game from.

Regarding your problem do a clean install of xp and see if it works out.And why don't you consider switching over to Vista to harness full power of 8600gt(as it is dx10 compatible).

regards.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

hi techies

recently i downloaded a pc game punisher and spiderman 2 movie version but after install when i try to play it says "no tnl card detected" So i have decided to go for a graphics card but to utter surprize when i searched the net for a descent gfx card i was stunned to find a vareity of cards ranging from 2000 to 30,000 and to that in agp & pci version...so wat d f..i cannot understand anything..which one is better to go.I have a pc of 2.4ghz mercury mobo 256 ram (thinking to upgrade to 1 gb ram),1 agp slot and 3 pci slot.My budget for gfx card is 2500 to 4000 ..better if within 3500

Also i wann know what is d difference between agp and pci gfx cards & which one is the best

Thats normal.Don't worry.This wide range of graphic cards is to make sure every customer gets exactly what he wants.

It's PCIe not PCI.PCIe is far better than agp cards.USe google or wikipedia for differences.

thinking to upgrade to 1 gb ram
Its high time you do it.RAM is now dirt cheap.

Since your mobo doesn't support PCIe card you will have to go for AGP cards which are costlier than their PCie counterparts.I would suggect 6800gt it is around 3.5k.


MY SUGESTIONS:
upgrade your mobo instead of buying a graphic card.MOBO having SATA2,PCIe supposrt and having good onboard graphics(like GMA3000).This onboard graphics will easily play Spiderman2,NFS:MW etc.And then maybe later you can buy a PCIe graphic card.

8400gs is certainly better than any onboard graphic solution and it would suffice all your multimedia and DX10 needs(vista) but if you want to play games than this is just not the card for you.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I must say that this forum is dead against 8400 and strongly pro 8600.

Will someone tell me which game u cannot play well with 8400 but only with 8600
