there are no AM2 mobos with AGP slots around. It shud be PCIE.
And even if u get an 8600GT, den also ur proccy wud be a bottleneck. SO waste of money to go for such cards.

Check if its AGP or PCIE.

Dude i am using An AGP card as we speek. my mobo is MSI K9MM-V.

@entrana
sorry, i mistook for 8600GTS...

but why r u comparing 7950 nd 8800? The price difference is very much.
the comparison shud be b/w 7900 or 7950 vs 8600GTS

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Huh! it's not good if you can afford 8800gts 320mb.Do you play at high resolution.8800gts is good if you want to play at 1280#1024 resolution with maximum settings.No point in buying a 7959gx2 today.Soon nvidia will fix vram bug.see this review

7950GX2 has heating issues. The GPU which is sandwitched b/w the PCBs heats up quickly and the cards tends to become unstable even at stoch clocks.

A 7950GT wud be better even if it dun perform like 7950GX2.

Orelse get the 8800gts 320. Heard inmany forums dat nvidia will soon fix the bug(texture mem bug) with a gud driver. So in that case 8800GTS 320 is better than 7950GT nd GTX in any way...and the 8800GTS will be more stable in temperature aspect also compared to 7950GX2.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@entrana
sure u can do it...on 1360*768

what Tech Genius wanna say was due to the mem mangement bug, the card can't handle some games with heavy texture at ultra high resolutions like 1600*1200 and above.

Sinece 1360*768 is not a very high resolution the card can handle every game at dat res @ max detail.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

ummm... theres a lot goin on about the 8800gts 320mb... i hope its worth the hype, really...
im planning to go for it, first off, should i buy an asus or an msi?
secondly, what power psu should be good enough to hold this card, and what are the consequences of using a low power psu with this card?
lastly... and the dumbest question of em all... should i even go for it at all?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

why not xfx or evga??they are better.
bt u ll need a really good psu.i ll suggest at least zebonics platinum 500 watt or better to have coolermaster extreme 600 watt.

when is 9800 GTX coming out??i got some price quotes(assumption) of it being priced abt $700.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

hmmm... weird you say that...
1. asus
2. leadtek
3. zotac
4. evga
5. msi (NX8800GTS-T2D320E (GeForce 8800GTS) 320MB GDDR3)
6. xfx
7. msi (NX8800GTS-T2D320E-HD-OC (GeForce 8800GTS Overclocked) 320MB GDDR3) (Dual-link DVI connectors - SLI bridge - TV-out + HDTV support)
8. innovision
9. evga

thats the set of manufacturer cards i got as options... and they're in increasing order of prices... ie, asus is the cheapest, and well, evga is the most expensive of the lot...
most of em didnt have descriptions... and msi did... but arent those features gonna be common to all?
this is actually confusing...
oh.. and wouldnt a cooler master true power/ antec / acbel 400-450w psu help?
also, what happens if i hook up the card to a low power psu??
and im gettin the psu from singapore... there wont be any problem in that, would there? i cant be bothered about the warranty/guarantee.. i can send it back and stuff... so apart from that, would gettin the psu from singapore make a difference?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Evga come with lifetime warrenty.Also make sure the PSU is rated one,500W is enough for 8800gts 320mb.

dont know where u live.bt when u can get a decent psu here in India,why are u so much interested having it from Singapore??!!
cooler master true power will serve the purpose for you bt then if u upgrade ur computer in the future,400 watt psus wont let u do that.
if u use a low power psu with ur 8800,then the psu will blow,thts for sure.
before blowing,ur cabby will be abnormally heated.so better be in the safe side before regretting:).
