ATI 4870 ( Don't even think of stock cooler version though - look brands like Palit, Sapphire with custom cooler )

Gigabyte GA-EX58-DS4 Rs. 13750

Depends on what do you want ?
SLi or crossfire will improve 25-50% performance ( though not all the time ).
If you think 25-50% perf improvement is justified with using two simillar cards then it's just OK for you. But

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

If u want SLi, go directly for HD4850x2 if available, or get an HD4870x2 after a few weeks, there's been a 20% price cut in HD4870x2's price

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I am considering buying a Graphics card. My specs are below on the sig. However my problem is that my SMPS is CoolerMaster 390W, which I have no desire to upgrade.
Can Anybody recommend me a good graphics card, without changing the Power Supply? Looking at reviews I think 4670 is a good choice like this one:
*www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121274

But I am not very sure, particularly at Power Supply.

I use Linux, or OpenSolaris, just to let you know.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Which cable should i buy for the TV OUT (svideo 7 pin) D945GCLF2 (GMA950)?
I have one cable which consist
7pin svideo - 3 pin rca (3 composite pin) but when i connect the Yellow pin in TV's AV i didn't get the think i tried other pin and it worked but the picture was Black and white.
after little touching here and there i can see colour (which is very bad i can say for eyes) i don't know what happened and why the cable is not working after some research i found this things

*www.metacafe.com/watch/1229840/s_video_to_composite/
*www.ixbt.com/video2/images/radeon-tv-out/s-video7.jpg (refresh this page if error)
*www.ixbt.com/video2/images/radeon-tv-out/s-video4.jpg (refresh this page if error)

also is this cable will work but it has a Femal jack ?
*g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/31DX1HQ4F8L._AA280_.jpg
i think it should be like this
*www.esteshareia.com/Computer products/B Svideo RCA.jpg
Will this work ?
*www.epanorama.net/circuits/svideo2cvideo.html
Or i have to do any other thing
Also does this motherboard will out put sound too ?
My tv have 3 RCA FEMALE connection ( it is indian PAL) one for video and other two for audio..
No idea which cable will work and how to improve the picture quality so that i can use it as a monitor...

U can get HD4650 instead, better bang for buck, and almost same performance

but will 4850 also be a good purchase? i am looking at a card which i wont have to upgrade for atleast another 2 years..

and if i happen to pick up a full comp now, which i will use mainly for gaming,, should i take a c2quad or c2dual?

Can not he opt for 9600gt instead ? CM 390W doesn't comes with a pci-e power connector though most of the gfx cards do.

but will 4850 also be a good purchase? i am looking at a card which i wont have to upgrade for atleast another 2 years..

In terms of VFM 4850 is best option.
In terms of future proofing 4870 is a good choice over 4850.
But you can get 2x4850 with crossfire supported mobo. That will be more future proof & gives better perf than a single 4870.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ Get a ASUS 8600GT for 3k... Getting below this was waste of money and of no use with the newer games..

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Yes, the 256MB DDR3 Version..
I personally had no idea about HD3650?
But the 8600GT wont let u down in games,as it plays almost all new games?
Maybe wait for some other users to tell about HD3650..

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

will 8600GT run new games like gta 4, cod4 etc?
my system has 512 ram, and 2.8 ghx..


is taking 2gb ram, and 8600gt enough to make my system workable for new games?
