make sure u get the leadtek card and not zebronics's own card.

 

[deathvirus_me]

@imagineer_aman : like i previously said .. get a 6200 ... it costs around 3800 and will last more than any other card ...

Can anyone here help me find a Radeon 9800 Pro. I've had it with 6600GT and the omnipresent shimmering (in FS9). Ebay has a few listings for Rs22K. LOL. 22K for a card that performs below par as opposed to 6600GT. No online stores in India have it. I don't know anyone in my neighbourhood who has it, else I'd have gladly swapped.

Keith...I know the card is available in Bangalore but the reason why it is so expensive is cos its the platinum series which is available at the mo. The 9800 Pro's are hard to come by and even more so cos of the 6600GT's.

 

[abhilash]

Anybody who can help me take a decision....???

I wanted to play games like HL2,Doom3,Farcry,ColdFear, & others that needs Pixel/Vertex shader...
The preferred resolution is 800 x 600. with unwanted eye candies like.. aa etc off(i can live without AA )

shud i go for geforce Fx 5950 or 6200 non Gt..

Fx series or 6 series..

Really confused.. Please help. ^_^

@keith:I remember the Powercolor Radeon 9800Pro was around 13k.Now prolly it must have reduced for sure.Where are you from?
If in Mumbai i suppose Lamington road is the one-stop-shop.

@abhilash:On the Agp front i would definetly ask you to go in for the 5950 or the 5950Ultra.This card can handle games at fairly high resolutions and guess what you can have those eye candy added to a certain extent too.

 

[deathvirus_me]

@abhilash : go for the FX5950 .. if u can then make sure u get the FX5950XT ... it'll whoop the gaming a** of a 6200 at any given time ....

Re: Help me choose GFX card

Since Fx 5200 was then only choice back then now its a different option as you can get the Geforce 6200 (Non-Tc) 128MB Vram AGP 8X card.Low-End model for the Geforce 6 series but a great buy compared to the FX5200.Plus it also Supports SM 3.0 which might prove useful in future games though this card wont run them at high resolutions.

Which is the best model in GEFORCE 4 series and how much it costs?

The best is Geforce 4 Ti4600 i suppose and the cost was somewhat around 4.4k sometime back not entirely sure though.

 

[QwertyManiac]

for 2-2.5 k u can get a high mbed geforce mx ot ti card...

Lol.MX series are a joke for purchase @ such budget right now.Their whole core is now outdated.Plus Ti4600 is somewhat better than an FX5200 but no way is it better than an Geforce 6200.
