Actually, i dont get u.
u need a gpu under 13cm?

Piyush · Apr 20, 2011

increase your budget by at least 3.5k
2k is just too low
or you can look out for 2nd hand card
also....your PSU cant handle high power requirement cards

no no. i mean to say that this board supports the said GPU. and

2k is his budget.

in web site the cabinet's dimension cannot be found. so i ask him to measure the length. i think he has measured it wrongly.

no he wants a virgin card. so pls suggest all possible GPU that this board can handle and the required psu also.

ok . any other GPU that this board can support and their prices pls.

regarding resln i have to ask him.

skeletor · Apr 20, 2011

The only GPU which you will find for 2k is HD 4350 which is poor.

avichandana20000 said:

Tired of saying this again and again. If the board has a PCI-express slot, it will support graphic cards.

not getting you sir. PCI-express slot supports GPU that i know. i only specify the GPU that DG31PR will support as far as i have understood after googling.

i will tell my friend regarding HD 4350.

requesting you to update me regarding the word "poor" for HD 4350

Its poor performance card for the Value !

coderunknown · Apr 21, 2011

@avichandana20000, will your friend use it to game? if yes, try for a used 9600GT (PSU may blow) or HD4670. thats the best bet.

if no gaming, get what ico suggested.

My point is: any and every motherboard having a PCI-express slot will support any and every PCI-express GPU. [and DG31PR has a PCI-express slot]

:smile:

Only limitation is your PSU.

Yes my frnd will play games like call of duty, medal of hounour etc

i ahve already told that he will only use new card.

Got it now. so points to remember for me
1)DG31PR is capable of supporting any PCI-E GPU.
2)But PSU needs to be changed.
3)Budget for GPU should be 6000(min) and for PSU 4000(MIN)

pls suggest that required PSU which will be able to handle a fair GPU.

correct me if i am wrong.

dont compromise on PSU as it will help in future upgrades ..... get corsair VX450 [very good build ... proven performer]

for GPU get used 9800GT ~4k or 5670 ~5.2k ... this will be able to play every game released upto now @ medium to high settings on 19-20' monitor

please dont compromise on PSU ..... u will regret after some time

You can get Sapphire HD 5750 1GB @6.2k.

avichandana20000 said:

Regarding PSU, get Corsair CX400 @2.5k.
No need to get VX450 or such with the C2D system that you posted.

Piyush · Apr 21, 2011

@OP
ok ask your friend to fetch at least a total budget of 6.5k
HD 5670 512mb @ 4.6k
FSP saga II 500W @ 2k

this ^^ combo will be enough for him if he games at resolution 1600x900 or below

budget raised? or is it still stuck at 2k? & a 2k GPU is total waste.

avichandana20000 · Apr 21, 2011

thanks kartikoli and G bhatt.

@ Piyush
i think i should go as per u. And his monitor supports 1024x768 , 17" color.

FSP saga II 500W may not be available at kolkata. in that case corsair is the only choice.

that is his concern. i can show him the road only . walking has to be done by him.

cute.bandar · Apr 22, 2011

There is a great deal available on techenclave.com an unused gt 240 for 2750 shipped! Try that.
IMO this is pretty sweet deal. Infact I am in talks with getting one myself

Piyush · Apr 23, 2011

^^but why are they selling it so cheap?
and unused=new ?

cute.bandar · Apr 23, 2011

^ Here is the thread in question . I think its cheap because he has to get rid of 5 cards, not just one. The seller has a nice 'itrust score' so me thinks it should be legit. unused = 5 month old, unused. they were for a gaming parlour that never took off(according to the the post)

avichandana20000 · Apr 25, 2011

my friend is asking a feedback for GeForce GT 520 .

1) how is the card?
2) will this work in DG31PR?
3) OS is win 7 ultimate.

ok. he has made up his mind to buy HD 5670 DDR5 @ 5300/-

is that a good deal?
