Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Buying a new rig is out of the question. I bought a machine with a free PCI E slot so that I could add a graphics card in the future. I will get the RAM. Are there any issue with using a 1GB in parellel to the 512s? Can you recommend any other graphics which can be used without having to overclock my AMD...at least to run most of the current games.? i usually play at 1024 * 768 at medium setting...so I am willing to sacrifice some of the eye candy.

Yor cpu will bottleneck your graphics card performance. So I told you to OC it. No there should not be any issue using 1GB in parallel of 512s. But it would be better if you can sell those 512s & get 2x 1GB ram. If you can't just buy the 1GB ram but it should have same speed as the other two 512s & same brand.

For gfx card - if you don't want to OC your proc just get the palit HD4670 ( Rs. 4.5K ) your cpu will bottleneck the performance of Palit 9600GT ( Rs. 5.2K ). If you can oc your cpu to 2.2Ghz then get 9600GT. Also while buying a graphics card make sure it has GDDR3/DDR3 mem.

I'm getting the 4870 for 10k. Only 2k more than the 4850 and at least a 10% performance difference. Why i want a pcie 2 mobo is because the gcard supports it and has twice the bandwidth of pcie1.

Just found the solution. It seems intel x38 series chipsets support pcie2.

Which brand of HD4870 is that. It's very cheap. CAn you mention the brand.

I have a little suggestion - why not get a Zotac GTX 260 for the same price. It's better than HD4870.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ Well, an HD4870 1GB is a very good card, and it matches the GTX260 in almost all games, beats in some, and by a huge margin. Plus, DX 10.1 and better image quality, I think a 10k HD4870 is a very very good deal.

Which 4870 is this for 10K. Is it the 512MB one..?

 

[desiibond]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

yes. the most basic of all. 512MB GDDR5.

 

[comp@ddict]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

But still, now the cheapest GTX260 is 11.3k Palit Sonic, as GTX260 Zotac price has risen from 10.3k to 12.3k(dunno WHY) on lynx-india!

And for gaming at 1680x1050/1600x900, 512MB/1GB doesn't make THAT much of a difference.

Fall out 3 & Dead Space GTX 260 wins
Crysis warhead GTX 260 wins
Far Cry 2 DX9 Test GTX 260 wins

Far Cry 2 DX10 HD 4870 1GB wins
Call of duty World at war HD 4870 1GB wins
Brothers in arms hell's highway HD4870 wins

Read this review :
*www.guru3d.com/article/top-10-games-with-radeon-4870-1-gb--geforce-gtx-260-core-216-test/1

So according to that benchmarks a GTX260 896MB can beat a HD4870 1GB DDR5. So I don't think a 512MB can beat GTX260.

BTW, why is not the user r4gs is not posting about the brand name of that 10K HD4870.

@ desiibond - the lowest price I got on HD4870 512MB is 12K.
can you tell me which brand is selling it around 10K.

@ asigh - r4gs told that a hd4870 is 10k. So it would be better if you ask him.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I dunno, uptill 1680x1050 resolution, a 512MB really handles everything, and for 10k, if the OP ain't bluffing, it's a good deal.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^^ I agree. For 10k, one can get the GTS250 1GB. I'm sure that the 4870 512MB can beat the pants off that dumbo-jumbo(read the GTS250 1GB).

 

[comp@ddict]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ and the GTS 250 512MB and GTS 250 1GB barely have a difference in performance.

^^^ Ya man, @ that price range, NVIDIA sucks!
