In between these g.cards.......which one is best ????

My budget : 12-15K

 

[Hustlerr]

Buy 8600 GTS , model to watch for XFX, MSI, ASUS n Fatality these all cards u can get in between 12-15k

 

[bajaj151]

thx anuj..for ur quick reply

My main motive of buying g-card is to have all features of vista enabled on my pc, as with 915gav,i am not getting.

So....should I go for G-card or buy new mobo (Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus)

 

[Hustlerr]

Ur Welcome bajaj, if u just want a g-card with dx 10 then go for XFX 8600 GT, its nice card n u can do mid lvl gaming and u can get it for around 7800-8200

 

[bajaj151]

thx bro...tell me one more thing

Is Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus....enables all vista features ??
If yes....whts d approx price ???

 

[Who]

go with 8600 GT , 8600 GT Fatality is just overclock version of 8600 GT so don't waste the extra 3k, also an overclock version 8600 GT perfomence nearly equal to 8600 GTS, so with the 8600 gt

 

[Hustlerr]

Well sry dude, i don't know about Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus.

[Who]

8600GT price is around 8k , while the 8600 gts price is around 15-16 k

 

[ssk_the_gr8]

the best buy would be the overclocked version of msi 8600gt just read abt it on pcworld

 

[bajaj151]

@smit

I think...price of 8600gts is too high....i inquired frm nehru place last month....it was around 12000 /-

Are u sure, price of 8600GTS is between 15-16k ??

@ ssk_the_gr8

to enable all vista features go for ati hd 2400xt( id suggest this as it draws lesser power & runs cooler) or msi 8500 gt they cost aroound 4-5k. but if u want to do a little bit of gaming then go msi (ati)hd 2600xt-512 mb gddr4
or msi(nvidia) 8600gt (overclocked edition)

& plz give ur pc config so that i can suggest if u need a new mobo or g-card

 

[bajaj151]

config :

Intel 915GAV
Pent 4 3.0ghz
1Gb Transcend @400mhz
Liteon-20x dvd-writer
160 Gb (2*80 SATA)

 

[ssk_the_gr8]

if ur mobo has a pcie x16 slot u can go for these cards otherwise u will have to search for their AGP versions & for vista u will have to add 1gb more to ur ram

 

[bajaj151]

ya...my mobo have pcie x16 slot.

Presently, I am using Vista Ultimate with the same config but aero feature is not available. For extra features only, I am planning to but new mobo or g-card

If mobo under 12k and supports my current processor, will enables all vista features...then i will go for mobo only........if not....then gcard.

 

[ssk_the_gr8]

u have to decide whether u want to go for mobo or not
buyin a mobo or g-card both have its advantages & disadvantages
i would suggest ati hd 2400xt( id suggest this as it draws lesser power & runs cooler) or msi 8500 gt they cost around 4-5k & 2 k for ram
that way u will save around 6k.. when do u plan to upgrade ur processor next?
then i will be able to suggest what to upgrade. mobo or g-card.

 

[bajaj151]

@ssk_the_gr8

I am planning to upgrade my processor next month

Suggest the mobo. with quad core & ddr3 support if possible.

My budget for mobo :12-15k

 

[BBThumbHealer]

i m having the 8600 GT....i recommend it to u...just awesome GPU !

 

[bajaj151]

Ati or nvidia ???
