GT 520 is very weak. HD 5670 1GB GDDR5 should be around 5k or less depending on the place.

If you can find the 512MB version which is cheaper for 4.5k, then go for it as there is hardly any performance boost in 512MB and 1GB version of this card.

in kolkata at present 512 mb is not available. 1 gb DDR5 is available around 5k. Anyhow, how is the card?

fsp saga II 400w for 1.8k will easily support that card

i have also shorlisted some PSU along with yours:

fsp saga II 400w -1.8k
Corsair CX400 - 2.5K
FSP Saga ii 500 - 2.1K
vx450 -3.6k
cx430 -2.6k
vx 550 -4.5

which are of these 80 plus certified?

i think GT240 is much faster than GT520. worth buy at 4k (but no DX11). for the PSU, FSP Saga II 400W looks good as its price is also quite low.

all except CX430W. FSP PSU are not certified but were shown to have 80%+ efficiency & when tested on Tom's H/W.

so final product goes like this:

PROCESSOR – C2D 2.93-E7500
Motherboard – DG31PR
RAM – DDR2 (2GB)
SMPS – 550W corsair
Cabinet- Frontech Jaguar
GPU- sapphire hd 5670 1gb ddr5
os- win 7 ultimate
monitor - LG 177WSB(17")

any suggestion?

@SAM in the site of FSP they have created a segment called "80 plus certified" and has given a whole lot of products under it.

Take a look at Tagan stonerock 500W @ 3K in Starcomp Infotech Kolkata, G.C. Avenue. It is 80+ bronze certified.

I am the master of my Fate.
not used or fresh. :razz:

i know it is a crappy. so suggest a good psu.giving a blank suggestion is of no use.:razz:

u have got so many good suggestions from other members....
so choice is urs...

& pls use write words while asking questions, & a vendor will give u a brand new sealpacked card....
so if u want a second hand card then u have to explicitly mention it...
by default its always a new card....

what is the building number in G C AVENUE and contact number of the shop,
in site there are several addresses.

but no 80% efficient certification label/tag on the box. thats what i was saying.

ok. but are corsair, tagan also do this coaxing business?

one more thing i like to ask. in TDF there is a thread regarding HD 6670 posted by Cilus. i have read it and get impressed. so should i ask my friend to wait some more? BTW when will it be going to available in kolkata market any idea?

The address of Starcomp is 10 Ganesh Chandra avenue. Right now I don't have Phone number. It is near Easter Logica.

They have another outlet which is 2/3 shops after Vednat.

HD6670 currently is overpriced. & its yet to be launched here. so waiting mayn't be best solution. to offer really good VFM as HD5670 does, one will have to wait more than a month.
