Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I just plugged 7300gt AGP in my system & now I am getting the famous Insufficient power message, everytime windows boots.

I checked my PSU, but there isn't any specification on it. So how can i make out it's wattage? Any soft for this?

Also Nvidia suggested some extra power cable to plug in the card, whereas I did not got the cable with the card. Is it sold seperately? At what price?

EVGA 8800 GT KO, else i'd suggest MSI 8800GT, the one with custom cooler bcoz it heats pretty less .
XFX 8800GT= good for nothing , also alpha dog edition has heat issues.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

msi is the best here.evga and xfx r neck 2 neck 2nd gigabyte is 3rd.reason for evga not coming 1st is that the warranty u get in us is not the same here.there r many shortcomings

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

EVGA now officially available..tirupati is importing..so now issues now..
also EVGA KO performs slightly better due to more clock.
Else MSI is a better choice

in terms of mem speed
EVGA KO > XFX Alpha dog (not at all recommended) > MSI 8800 OC

Resolution is 1152x864, settings high and AA at 16X as per SS!! Even that is so Nice man! :)
Its just, 9600GT XXX Edition is out. The clocks are 700/1750/999!! Pretty good imo! So, i was thinkin if overclocked 9600GT perform so well even in Crysis then why should one go with 8800GT??
Ok, i need favour from 8800GT owners here, if they could. Can 8800GT owners confirm the Crysis in-game FPS at 1280x1024 with settings @High. AA and AF level just as same as @ionicsachin mentioned! :)

yeah man i am highly satisfied with the card....at 1280x960 i ve tried with 8xAA.....almost similar results....9600GT has just 64 stream processor against 112 of 8800GT...
the reviews say that the card is strong enough at these resolutions....but not for very high resolutions.....i ve got 17"CRT so no probs coz Crysis runs like dream...
And even Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion.....at everything set to very high...full terrain, grass and trees view distance on and 8XAA(thru control panel) and HDR on....it gives 40+FPS.....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I'd recomment 8800gt over 9600gt. It's just because of extra 48 stream processor. 9600gt uses better algo but is hardware limited compared to 8800gt. So with new and new upcoming drivers 8800gt shall be profiting more and by a lot in shader intensive games. I remember playing my x800xl on old drivers and and new ones. It was a lot of difference.

Yash, its driver causing the error. Make a clean uninstall of driver, restart and install newest vista driver. On failure, you may like to try older version.
