Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^How about you save some more and go for a HD4670 for around 5.5k which will be 40-50% faster and stable than your 8600GT :).
 
Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@marvidrao:If you have time and patience format the OS partition and reinstall the OS and drivers.Replacing the PSU with same model is hardly a change, for all we know they may be of the same batch and even if they are not, might be giving similar problems.
Try to see if gpu is not overheating with utilities like gpu-z and there are no dust problems in the cabinet.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ Palit HD4850 is the best VFM card currently available - you can get it for Rs. 9200-9500 or so.

Your current PSU may work but you should upgrade your PSU to Corsair VX450 ( Recomended ) or CM600W extreme

There r two things:

1. 400W generic PSU suks, even for an 8600GT.
2. Try it on a 500W generic or a 450W GOOD PSU and see.
3. So, prob may be either gfx card or PSU.
4. So finally, get a techie and ask him to check ur PSU b'fore buying the gfx card and saying OOPS

@ comp@ddict - good suggestion buddy.

@ marvindrao
Seems like a overhaeating Prob - Have you checked your gfx card fan - Is it running ?

For a new gfx card you can go for 9500GT ( DDR3 version )

There are 3 Palit 9500GT available, 256MB DDR3, 512MBDDR2, and 1GBDDR2.
They don't have DDR3 in higher memory versions. So, is the 256MB one, a better performer?
Also, i have a P4 3.0GHZ with 2 GB DDR2 ram. Will i be happy running GTA4 if i get one of these above mentioned cards (atleast at low settings)?
