Graphics Cards related queries here.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Few suggestions. You can try a combination of them.

1.After installation of driver, goto task manager and see if everything is ok. If there is yellow question mark , right click it and disable and re-enable.
2.Update you motherboard bios and other drivers. Then install the gfx driver.
3.Try the card in friend's computer. If it works, format your vista and make clean install and see if it works.
4.Throw away vista and install xp. It should work.
5.Throw away the card.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Anybody know when there will be a price cut in 8800GT? Its stuck at 12k from last year.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^It could come down when the ATi 4 series cards are released.

From last year?? IMO, its price tag was quite high in last year!
12K price tag is after price cut! And yep, eventually it'll come down!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^Yup... When it was released, it was around 14k and then it came down to 12k after a few days. I dont think there was a price cut after that.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Well there will be not much of a price cut. The card will be replaced by 9800GT and it will be considered as dead from nVidia, thats what they always do
nVidia already killed its 8600GT, to launch the 9600GSO and will be considered dead after the launch of 9500GT DDR3 version.

Last year the price of 8800GT was somewhat 18K-20K, it already had enough price cut.
Besides if they cut the price, it will come near to 9600GT and no one will buy 9600GT.

Pls Help me.
I have a stupid motherboard (915GV) which only has PCI slots.
I'm not allowed to change my motherboard. I have found a PCI card made by Powercolor and Visiontek.
Please can you submit the details of their distributors in Mumbai?
Also please can you give me the contact number of Abacus Peripherals Mumbai and Pune?

Thanks a Lot

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Abacus Peripherals
Select ur nearest Branch.

No company manufacture new PCI graphics cards, u may get an old one, heck even AGP is no more, except ATI with HD3850 or some coming models but barely find any good one, keep trying hard!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^Dude if you plan to do some gaming(even if ure not some big time gamer) a PCI card is good for nothing. Waste of money unless you get it for 50-100 bucks.
Even AGP cards are of no use right now.
Can you specify the technical details of that that PCI card?

 

[seeck]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I have the options of
Geforce 6200 (lots of makes)
Sparkle 8500GT
Visiontek, Powercolor HD 2400 Pro

well mainly all are DX10 except for 6200 (DX9)
PS 4
Vs 4
8x AA
HDTV
DVI
S-video
256-bit processor (550 mhz )
ramdac 400 mhz*2

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^Err.... I think ure talking about AGP cards...
You cant get a PCI 8500GT, only PCI-e and AGP..

 

[seeck]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

256mb vram

look dude ive done my research
go to sparkle.com.tw if you dont believe me.
Just cause im new here doesnt mean im new to computers.
they have been made specially for people with workstation computers with Effing onboard graphics.

 

[nvidia]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Could you post a picture of your motherboard?

I dont remember mentioning anywhere that you dont know abt computers and stuff.
You've been asking for a PCI card all this time. PCI is different from PCI-e and AGP.
PCI is older than AGP is older than PCI-e. Get it?

I'd recommend a 8500GT out of those which you have short listed.
If you have a PCI-e slot then get a 8600GT atlest even if you are a casual gamer.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Even a dated PCI can do better than an onboard cause its much better (Im sure you know why)

I have an HP a 1210in
I KNOW I ONLY HAVE PCI.
I have seen enough of computers and motherboards
this junk heap i have only has PCI slots.
Gimme your email and Ill forward you the specs of it.
Plus I've opened it and checked

I have onboard GMA 900
Hardware DX8.1
Ps 1.0
VS N/A
Transform Lighting NO
HDTV NO
everything is a big NO on this junk heap

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^PCI is the oldest thing dude!
On board graphics can beat the sh!t out of all those old PCI cards and if im right you cant get a PCI graphics card with more than 8MB memory. It got outdated more than 8 years back.
