Graphics Cards related queries here.
don't get rs 480,get something better ,nforce 4 preferably nforce 4 ultra or higher
also,6600gt is a decent card
check this link for performance in diff games.
but with a good system you may for instance say,
deux invisible war: @ 1024*768,highest settings you may not even get 30fps,but you can ask others whther lower fps is fine or not
if you want 30>= then you will need to invest in 6800gt or x800pro atleast,,maybe higher for lower system
hl2 you shd be able to play @ 1024*768,highest settings
both of them don't include aa and af though
doom3 you might be able to play @1280*1024,highest and no ADDITIONAL aa and af on.
these are probably ingame settings,refer to link to ee how they are tested.

Hi Guys,
Just returned from Mumbai last night.
Got the graphic card i was looking for. Or rather - got the costly one available there
XFX GeForce 6800 Ultra
256MB DDR3
256Bit
AGP8X
DUAL DVI/S-Video OUT
3 yrs warranty from Big Byte Corp.
running on win98se and winxp_sp2
Bundled Package:
2 X DVI-SERIAL port socket
1 S-Video Cable
1 NVIDIA Driver's CD
1 X MOTOGP2
1 X X2-THE THREAT (2 CD)
1 X COMMANDOS - DESTINATION BERLIN (3 CD)
Cost = Rs. 32100 /- from Prime ABGB
Got 550W power supply for Rs. 5750 (before i had 300w)
Installed latest drivers for win9x and winxp from nvidia.com last nite.
So well - the cost went real UP with all this - i wasn't expecting - BUT it all well when it ends well. Looking good now though.
Question:
Bought a s-video to 3 rca cable
can see the desktop and the folders - had set the card on dual display
But when i open window media player and power dvd - can't see the movie. please help me out. Can't hear any sound either when i play any mp3 with media player and winamp.
This is the only problem i got for now. Rest seems working properly. Don't wanna overclock the card - since im just a novice with this. Don't wanna end up loosing everything.
Kindly try to help me out with the TV diaplay and sound problem please.
thanks

I saw on "ebay.in" some body was selling BFG 6800 Ultra OC just 4 Rs.29K
nice indeed!!! I didn't wanted 2 buuuy b'coz I will buy my new PC when I go 2 MIT so I thought it might help u ppl
The biggest thing in that card is that the core at stock clocks 410Mhz instead of 400 Mhz (that's what oc means)
It gives 1yr comprehensive warranty and has good bundled goodies

Just tell your motherboard.
Also,6800gt pci-e shod be starting at abt 24k.
THough x800xl you shd get around 20k.
Also,if somebody has 1.7ghz , he shd upgrade if not now then within few months as that is a bottlenekc also now since pci-e is out it is safer to stick with wit or atleast 8x.
THough ask others abt 4x.
just upgrade 1.7ghz

the best cards are of Gainward and MSI which r priced at good rates !!!!!!
Radeon an geforce are the major and only graphic chipsets FOR GAMING that normally ppl take and are popular for gaming.
try to avoid ati as they have many driver etc probs,but if they give better bang for buck you MIGHT try them if their aren' that many probs.
cards are then made by companies like asus,ati etc using these chipsets i think.
For todays generatin card,asus shd be fine .
leadtek shd be fine
xfx is ok in india ,availbale many places
pci-e graphic card,
suggested buy
6600gt 128mb xfx i bought for 10.3
consider leadtek,though it has only 1 yr warranty and it is safe to go for 3yrs
consult others
otherbuy:
6600,for 7.5-8k and up
else geforce 6200 128mb or higher ,if 256mb then take ,

mukherjee said:Hi guyz,
Wat is the price for 6600 128mb/256mb? are they 128 bit? gddr memory?
Check www.techmirchi.com for prices online.............They have leadtek and xfx.
Yes gddr memory is there and on the newer more expensive 6600Gt you get gddr3 memory. Yes these are 128bit.
actually you shd spend as much as possible on 3d card and there is no comparison betwenn 6600 and 6600gt
go for min:
6600gt
x800,provided it has no probs,seem to read something abt X800s
6800,sometimes it does loose to 6600gt
go for pci-e
recommended:
6800gt 256mb or higher or wait for next gen if you have decent card
X800pro/xl
X850pro or higher

i think geforce 6200 agp by xfx shud be the next best bet for casual gamers..who are thinking of gng for the geforce 5200/5700/radeon 9600..i think its got more features than its pci-e counterpart..and it has all the features of the new-gen cards..though u wont be able to put the eye candy on...however at a price of 5600 only..wat more can u xpect..!!!
so according to me this is the best vfm card in the entry level segment.

HEy i think go in for a cheap chard now the save up and when ati and nVidia introduce their latest chipsets the rates of the present cards will fall then u will have a bigger range to choose from !!!!
