Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

found it, here it is.

The 4 gpu limitation is only from the driver side. Wonder if ati releases support for 8 gpus in new drivers. It is very much feasible though as is evident from that interview :D

I heard that ASUS will be launching a X58 based mobo with 8 PCI-e x16 slots........ imagine the power of 8x HD4870x2 :twisted: .......it would run 3 Crysis parallely @Ultra High settings without any hiccups :D....lol

lol by the time that board hits the shelves i guess well have 40 nm ati cards, 4870x2 may very well be dethroned in well under a year :D

yus, you seem to be right ..... the pace at which grafix cards are advancing is just amazing....... there is a new big performer every 4 months now :D... I guess NVIDIA will be planning to launch a GTX280x2 .........:D:D

By the time it is released ... A better counterpart to Crysis would have arrived. :D

We all know that pci express v2.0 cards are backward compatible.Is it real?
A higher version card works on a lower version motherboard without any sort of problem?

Aye sir, it surely will. I myself am running a card that supports pci-x 2.0 on a board with pci-x 1.1 slot only :p

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hi All,

I need some advice regarding the strange behaviour of GFX card(XFX 8600 GT)/mobo (ASUS M2N-MX) of my PC.

The setup worked fine for over a year until..
One fine morning when I switched on my PC ... no video signals came out
of the GFX card(not even bios screen).
I checked the components, GFX card's fan was still working, so I just un-plugged the card & used the mobo on board display & everything was fine again.I tried this setup (using the on-board display) for a few days & decided that something must be wrong with either my mobo's PCIe slot or the GFX card (8600 GT) itself.

I first took the card to XFX support in Kolkata (Akshay enterprises, Stephen House) where I was shown within minutes that both the card & the DVI-VGA dongle were fine.. the guys simply plugged the card into a PCIe slot, turned on the PC & all was good.. perfect picture & all.

So after all of this, I thought the mobo PCIe slot must be having the problem. When I took it to ASUS support, the staff at the service center said that they would test it using their own card and not my 8600GT. They plugged in some 6/7 series PCIe card and... now the PCIe slot was working fine and they booted into windows smoothly.


Now I am stumped! I mean, what am I missing here?! I am pretty sure either the GFX card or the mobo is faulty, but I cannot pinpoint the snag. Any suggestions are MOST welcome.


P.S: the card is still not working on my mobo, but then I haven't tested in anywhere else other than the XFX service centre.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

EVGA 9800 SSC (SuperSuperClocked edition) @ 10k

Yus, he asked for a good grafix card <10k from NVIDIA...... isnt it good ?? An OC'd 9800GT = HD4850 and as eVGA is giving a factory OC'd card, why not buy it ?? It matches the performance of a HD4850 :D.

where does it match HD4850 ??? ...how many times we will have to do this conversion ..unless 9800GT OC is not better than 9800gtx ..or equal to 9800gtx+ it doesn't dare match HD4850 ...

do i have to prove all over again ...??

Well.......I saw a review on some site which said 9800GT is only 11-13% slower then HD4850 and if u OC it then it will match HD4850's performance.
