@loktar, great buy. congrats and that is a dirt cheap price for GTS250

@Revolution, among those three, I would pick Palit and it's not a non-popular brand. For reliability, it would be Sapphire for ATI and XFX for nVidia. Also count in MSI/Gigabyte/ASUS

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Which non popular GPU brand should I go for ?
Palit or Sparkle or Galaxy etc.

I mean who is reliable and will give us better after sale service ?

Man,I'm totally confused between GPU Brands..........

Which GPU you want ---------> Then decide...the brand.

Have you mentioned it anywhere..sorry if I missed it..but which GPU you want..?

GTX 260 or GTX 275 or HD 4890: To be or not to be!!

I'm gonna buy a gfx card next month. I ve shortlisted the above three cards. All XFX brand. I know it's kind of lame to put GTX 260 or GTX 275. But I cant help it. Pls suggest a good mobo too something that can switch the GPU off during idling(like nvidia hybrid power) and how efficient are these. Any personal experience with this? I ll be buying these in US so anyother tips are welcome. :-D:-D

I've asked this question before but was not satisfied with the replies. So writing in again
:-D:-D

Thanks in advance

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

My pick would be GTX275 or HD4890, whichever is cheaper for same amount of RAM at that point of time.

not sure about such mobos for desktop. just check if you for tools that you can use to downclock GPU when in idle mode.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

My PSU is 250W
I wonder if i can install 9600GT or not???

I use a 17" screen at 1024x768 res.
or even 8600GT?

I need a graphics card for gaming, not the high end ones but medium level cards...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

reason: a 250W usually gives maybe 150W max output if it is highly efficient or else it will be like 100-120W. that is definitely not enough for 9600GT or 8600GT

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

But my PSU shows max power output 250W..:?:
Do you believe them:shock: (ell cheapo PSU manufacturers) ?
And to know your PSU plus procy power requirement fulfillment check your PSU's +12w rail's figure and the method is 12 x xx = +12w rail power supply(given figure about +12w rail on these kind of PSUs can be wrong as well). And above all if any ell cheapo PSU fullfill your PC's power reqirement then still it is not going to be a clean,energy eficient, dependable power at all.

Please tell us more about your system...?

yes..as mentioned above, your PSU is insufficient. Tell your system specifications, guys here can advice a reasonable PSU (mention your budget too)

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@keviv219. you can get cheapo zebronics 450W psu for 400 to 500 bucks these days. My suggestion would be to get a Cooler master 460W for some 2.5k

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

My budget is maximum 5K(with vat).....

9600GT is best one in 5-5.5K range. But since it's some .3K costly as surinder told. BTW, it also requires power through a 6 pin external power adapter. So you need a good PSU. What PSU do you have ?

As you told your max budget is 5K then Palit HD4670 ( as surinder suggested ) Super 512MB GDDR3 is the best bet for you. it does not need any extrenal power.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Mine is a compaq presario 1730IL desktop.
with a P4 533 HT 3.06GHz, 80GB Hitachi hard disk

I want to build a gaming rig in 6-9 months with all new parts..
But this is just for now..So i don't need anyhting thats is very costly and efficient
