Graphics Cards related queries here.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I'm thinking of getting either the Cooler Master Ammo 533 or the Centurian 534+ cabinet.If anyone had ever used one of these could you confirm whether the 10.5 inch long 9800gtx/gtx+ will fit in this case.
Also, can anyone suggest a cabinet that could fit the card(~3,500/- and P.S.U not needed).
P.S-I have made up my mind about buying this card.So please don't suggest ATI HD4870(I know it's more powerfull but also costs more).

wherefrom are u fetting the 9800gtx+ from?and at what price?
u cn pm me if reqd,i m interested now as i hav figured out that i can fit the 9800gtx+ in my cabby!
plz rep soon

Fellow Digitians,

my 7800GT has died...

It has been sent for replacement to Rashi Peripherals, Bombay.

As a replacement they are plannin to provide me with 8600GT or 8800GS 384MB fatal1ty.

I paid around 25,000 for XFX GeForce 7800GT 256MB EXTREME EDITION

Please advice as 7800GT is not available they should atlest give me a 8800GT if not 9800GTX

Get the 8800GS then.
If u are adamant on getting 8800GT,pressurise people @ Rashi to give u that.
But still it would be difficult.
Cuz the price of same 7800GT is pretty low now ...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I didnt know that 7800 is till available as "Rashi Periperals" is the official distributor for XFX in India, if they had that in stock....

I will tryfor 8800GT, hopefully the newer should atlest work till the warranty is over (6or9months), then it's goodbye nVIDIA

unforunately for you, your 7800GT 256mb extreme edition is as weak as or slightly weaker than 8600GT.
8800GS would kill it.

so you have nothing to loose

go ask for 9800GTX. you may atleast get 8800gt/gs.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i expected a bit more FPS outta GT.

IF i ask for GTX they would think im joking

what's more important for gaming at 1920x1200?

at that resolution, its RECOMMENDED that you get 512MB. Why don't you ask for 9600GT ?

Yeah, that's right. At higher resolutions the frame buffer(Memory) comes into play. That's why the 8800Ultra can still sometimes outperform the 9800GTX/GTX+ at really high resolutions(like 1920x1200/2560x1600)

True!! Get atleast 512MB. If they refuse to give you the 9600GT then the newly launched 9500GT also offers 512MB GDDR3 version and are a great low-med level performer. But opt. for 9600GT first. 8800GT 512MB GDDR3 will outperform both the 9600Gt and the 9500GT. Now its upto you.

8800GT(512MB) replacement for 7800GT?????
Do you honestly think that Rashi would do that?

I dont think so ..
Even though he bought 7800GT for 25k ... They would still be adamant on giving him a 8600GT ...
Which I think is wrong. He should get atleast 9600GT or above.

8800GT 512MB GDDR3 will outperform both the 9600Gt and the 9500GT. Now its upto you.

And by a large margin.

He can atleast get a 9600GT. 9500GT is the least he should settle for. 86xx and 85xx series quite old now.

You are right, but I was talking about 8800GT.
8800GT is waaaaaay better than 9600GT/9500GT

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

thank you fellow members all for the valuable inputs.

I had "discussion" with me retailer. I gotta say, sticking to one dealer for your computing needs pays off with good dividends. He's defended my position and now it seems the talks are on for 8800GT 512.

Let's hope they do this

nvidia, is this the way it's meant to be played?
