Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I used to have a Navtech 400 Watt PSU whcih wasn't able to run my graphics card so i bought a Cooler Master 430W Extreme PSU and my system runs smoothly. There's another reason because my 6800 GS require external power so i had to. But make sure u have a good PSU with atleast 18A and 400 Watts!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

guys is it worth to spend abt 2k more for asus 8600gt or should i buy xfx 8600gt, how better is asus??
and
i have a 19" wide lcd for which the resolution is 1440 x 900, so should i get the 256mb virson or 512mb one??

and just 2 let u know i play NFS MW and i want 2 play it in full details,
and why does it not show in games video setting menu my screens resolution 1440x900, but only 1024x768, is it my gfx card prob or games.

currently using xfx 8400gs.

thanx guys.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

some time older games doesnt have support for 1440x900 but yes under 8400 even when its supported would be hard to play :lol:

ASUS / XFX both are good brands !!! I would say stick to XFX... and no need for a 512 MB Card, GDDR3 256 MB based XFX 8600 GT is good enough as 8600 wont be able to ustilise the 512 MB at its full potential :lol:

^^^

Aslo I was wondering does it worth to upgrade from 8400 to 8600 ?? I would have thought of waiting a little to get the upcoming 8800 GT version :D

as always with a nice suggestion :)

u r right yaar but,
two probs,
1.when will it come??
2.must be very costly!!!

i think spending over 7-8k for a gfx is not a very smart move, but again this is what i think.

also choto cheeta, should i get those 8xxx line up or 79xx line up,
i use both xp and vista, it depends on my mood:)

I have no idea :(

2.must be very costly!!!

No, report suggests it is suppose to be cheaper but better performer than 8800 GTS which is Rs. 14k + !!!

also choto cheeta, should i get those 8xxx line up or 79xx line up,

one thing is certain though :p under DirectX 9.0c 79xx line up will out performe the 8600 based cards any day !!! its 8800 which beats the 79xx line up !!! so yeah u may also consider the 79xx...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Here is what I am planning to buy.
Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 Conroe 2.33GHz
(Going off topic but are core2duo and dual core different in any way?)
XFX 650i Ultra - Motherboard
2GB DDR2 - RAM

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Now about the graphic card.
Which one is best suited for the above specs.
XFX 8600gt 256mb
XFX 8600 gts xxx 256mb

If possible also post their prices (lamington road.)

I have also heard that there are 2 models available for xfx gt 8600 gt.
One is 15% slower than the another.

Another thing is I got a Flat CRT monitor. And in a picture of XFX 8600 gts xxx i saw that the connectors are different. Can i use it with my CRT?

Will the card work with the motherboard (specified above)?

And most important - will i be able to play Crysis ?
And at what config?

Hopefully i will be going shopping with my dad this sunday.

Wait before u order the 8600gt make sure they are not selling banned products from XFX(generally there are leftovers at the distributer)if possible get the local rashi contact info and ask about the make and model of the banned product(google for help).
