Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
I don't think so dude.
ATi was the one who got the FSAA(Full Screen Anti-Aliasing) + HDR simultaneously on their X19XX series!
And nVidia has got this feature from Dx10 seris cards!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Anti-aliasing with HDR was even possible on nvidia's Geforce 6 series card but the least recommended card was Geforce 6600 the Nvdia geoforms demo proved this.The anti-aliasing feature used was software based.And yes that was just what ATI uses till now even in the HD2XXX series.In this type of Anti-aliasing the jazzies are removed via software processing through pixel-pipelines(Now know as stream processors).However nvidia has introduced Hardware based anti-aliasing with there Geforce 8800 series based cards which is faster.ATI still uses software based anti-aliasing that's the why it had to introduce so many stream processors in its HD2XXX series.

This feature is not even on 7900 GTX.
Check this link and read the first page:

Just run through it dude!
Well if u can see my signature,i am also a proud owner of nVidia's 6 series GPU(6800).THis was the first GPU which holds the HDR....BUT....not HDR+AA.Harvik780 said:

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
I don't believe on what others say but what i see and observe.I have run the demo,u can download it on nzone and see for urself.Nvidia avoids software based anti-aliasing as its slow and emphasizes on hardware based anti-aliasing.U can goto www.ati.com to check the specs of these video cards and ati reveals that the anti-aliasing techniques are upgradeable via software drivers(that's only possible in software based anti-aliasing).

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
How much better XFX 8600Gt 'fatality' edition is in comparison to normal 8600GT?Is the price difference justified?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
i am not sure about the justification about the price, but the fatal1ty edition is a type of factory overclocked 8600gt, with better heat solution and about the maximum reachable clock, i think, dunno about the price though but think of it as a overclocked 8600 gt with warranty that costs 3k more

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
For sure dude. nVidia is always my first choice too because of the reason of less poer hungry.
Although ATi cards are behemoths but they actually perform better.
U can sse the comparision of 8800 GTS (640MB) and HD2900XT(512MB).
The 2900 XT eats up almost every thing but the card is a monster.
Just for a note:
THe X1900 XTX eats almost double the power compared to 7900 GTX but it also performs better than 7900 GTX.
Also in this case i 'de say that 7900 GTX will be a better choice because the performance difference is not that much as compared to power consumption.
The same story is with the 8800 & 2900.
U will hardly notice people with X-fire setups since 95% people(including me) prefers SLI setups.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
it has a 6 pin pcie connector... i guess pin extensions are pretty much available in the market, and in any case, folks at nehru place always have a jugaad for everythn...
but what im concerned about is if its good enough for an 320mb 8800gts...
