Do you have AGP slot or do you have PCIe slot?

What is themodel number of motherboard?

 

[vamsi_krishna]

i'm having one pci-e slot and an AGP slot.

 

[desiibond]

hmm. pci-e and agp? that's not possible. what is the motherboard's model number?

I think you have AGP slot and one PCI slot.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

Intel D101ggc

 

[desiibond]

hmm. this one has PCIe slot and two PCI slots.

Go for MSI NX8600GT 256Mb card

 

[skippednote]

8600gt or ati 3450 will do the job

Mercury 8600GT256MB GDDR3

 

[desiibond]

^^^Mercury. Donno why someone should buy crappy products from mercury.

I wouldn't even think about Mercury graphics card. Get EVGA/MSI/ASUS/Gigabyte/Palit

8600gt or ati 3450 will do the job

Its 3650. 3450's performance is equivalent to 8400gs, which is v. weak.

i'd suggest get a good ps3 game

i love that idea. But my pc has no gfx card at all to run application like blender, maya PLE, a basic graphic card will do a good job. Mean while i'll download and play some HD content too which demands a good graphic solution. That's why i want to buy a basic graphic card. However now i am wating. SOme vendor in my town said that the rates of graphic cards is going to decrease in the recent future(1-1.5 months).

Thnaks for suggestion.

 

[desiibond]

do you really think you can run maya on a budget GPU?

 

[vamsi_krishna]

Sorry dude. My Pc with on board graphics can run Maya 8 PLE, 3dx max trial, AutoCad 2004 applications very well. But when i am rendering textures if i view in 3d view. The image navigation will be sticky. Now i am adding a gfx card(don't mind the range) i am sure that i can see a increse in rendering speed.

Clear dude?
