Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

as far as i think the prices are including VAT atleast for techshop.in its including of VAT so i guess its the same with lynx. shipping is just 81/- to my place which is chennai.

and even @ 11.7k its worth for me if u ask me cos it was choice between 9800gtx+ and hd4850 sonic ....so if i don't get it on my place will get from lynx.

at my place plain palit is for 11.2 k ...so its better deal for me anyway.

did u get any card? which one? plz post details plz....

i am looking forward to buy a card from lynx store....

Hi mukherjee,I'm from Kolkata as well & I'v got the same thought as you. Right now the 9800GTX+ seems a better option than HD4850 as the former outperforms the latter in almost every aspect.The HD4870 is better than 9800gtx+ but costs more.If you have any update about the XFX 9800GTX+ in Kolkata please post here.
Do you think it will be available in Kolkata by October?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^Dude. Forget about 9800GTX+. 9800GTX costs around 18k. HD4870 is cheaper than 9800GTX. Moreover, I can get a crossfired setup of HD4850 for the price of one 9800GTX+ and the HD4850 setup will be miles ahead of 9800GTX if you hybrid crossfire it with 780G chipset board.

no need for thanks bro i was in same situation as u 3 months before i was going for 8800 gt as i hold it due to some marriage function at home ...and i m glad that i did now i have much better options at hand 4850/9800 gtx+ actually ur post did create a confusion in my mind too.

then i asked myself ,

do i need cuda and physX ?

i really enjoy programming and i have to yet to be well versed with DX10/open gl 2.0 programming.so doing something with CUDA i need to do a lot more programming before i can reach there! so CUDA is way to go for me!

physX - so far haven't seen much improvement in games due to it!

my use for graphics card for me is to play games with all eye candy on and for watching videos and UVD2 has better quality/performance than pure video decoder 2.0/3.0

hd4850 gives all these plus great image quality.

newer and better cards will keep coming out ..nVidia is not going to sit quiet.but i want the card now,which should last for 2 years and today i feel palit hd4850 sonic suits to my need perfectly.

palit hd4850 sonic has a good dual slot cooler

look here *forum.palit.biz/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=196&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

hd4850 maintains good frame rate even at higher resolutions with all eye candy on.

frankly i feel CUDA and PhysX are in their intial stages alot needs to be done to them and 9800gtx+ isn't quite equipped to handle these things efficiently as its old architecture...the same 8800 architecture with minor adjustments but on 55 nm fabrication process.on the other hand rv770 is newer and better ...and smart architecture which will do good for atleast a year !

and yes in future definately with dual core GPU's PhysX will get better and more efficient but right now PhysX doesn't do anything spectacular.

so i reasoned myself i don't need either CUDA or PhysX but definately a great card which can perform well thats what palit HD 4850 sonic is according to me.

dude u are mistaken about 9800 gtx+ its different from 9800 gtx

9800gtx+ is based on 55nm process hence its much cheaper than 9800 gtx and is around 12k ..nvidia has launched it to compete with hd4850 its just old wine in new bottle ...nothing else !

Sorry dude, the XFX 9800GTX+ should cost about 16,000/- according to Rashi Peripheral press release on 16th july- *priceguru.in/archives/news/new-hardware/2083 the HD4870 costs about 20,000/- *priceguru.in/prices/ati-graphics-cards and two HD4850 costs about 24,000/-.

Also, the ZOTAC 9800GTX+ already costs about 12,000/- (which is equal to HD4850). *www.lynx-india.com/index.php?productID=2244

So, the 9800GTX+ is still the best Performance:Money option if its available.

i guess ur opinion is bit flawed.
regarding the price part...plz visit the appropriate sections at theitwares.com & techshop.in .....

9800gtx+ never outperforms 4850..rather it gets outperformed 8) ..... visit tomshardware, hexus.net and others 4 confirmation.

i m sorry to say u are sadly mistaken .....


read this and u will know what it means by hd4850

*www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-hd-4850,1957.html

and this card palit hd 4850 sonic (pre-oced version @ 685 MHz) performs better than 9800gtx+ which is available @ 11k on lynx about 800/- less ....which makes it a better buy.

Heres one link- *www.pcper.com/article.php?aid=580&type=expert
Google "9800GTX+ review" to view more.Although the difference is barely 5% but with the upcoming games implementing PhysX & CUDA support I'm afraid the gap can widen.
I'm not a nVidia fanboy.Infact I'm currently using ATI graphics but this is the current situation.

and we arent ATI fanboys....
d fact is...to say it meaningfully,a few sides(websites!) really want nvidia to do better..... like pcper and guru3d...
jus compare findings on both:
tomshardware: *www.tomshardware.com/reviews/4870-x2-amd,1992.html
guru3d: *www.guru3d.com/article/radeon-hd-4870-x2-review-crossfire/1

if u keep ur eyes open...u will spot some differences...

go to anandtech.....tomshardware for more 'authentic' reviews....

i buy ur view bro....
i am a medical student...d only thing i need a gpu is for gaming and movies(hd yippee)!
4850 shud do fine....d sad fact is that the palit 4850 sonic isnt yet available here...
wat to do? order it online? or request tirupati to get one for me?

its always wise to buy from a local dealer,it really gives u satisfaction and if u run into some problem,u can go and get it repaired/replaced on ur own and fast.

and i always feel comfortable with what we say - "ek hath de ek hath le"

and tirupati are good distributors they should be able to get u palit hd 4850 sonic. but perhaps lynx india is one of the best online shops in india.they have good response and reputation. so i guess it shouldn't be a problem doing bussiness with them and if u still feel unsure.i feel u can find many people here who have done bussiness with lynx before ..they will help u out!

dude i don't play 3dmark !!! its synthetic benchmark ..u can watch its all eyecandy and boast about ur score.thats it nothing more to it !

but i do play crysis, COD4,world in conflict etc ...and performance in those games matter more for a gamer ...is it not ?
