Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hey,new Zotac 9600GT Eco will run on normal non-branded 400W PSU ?
Recently I have read a review at Digit(Aug Ed).
Zotac 9600GT Eco 512MB DDR3 does not need any external power.
Is that true ?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

If you are lucky, yes. that depends on how efficient your PSU is.

Yup it will, if u r lucky enuff? I knew a friend of mine who runs his 8800GT with a Intex 450W PSU w/o any hiccups....

And external power in sense, yes it does. It comes with 16pin power connector and you need to connect it...

Dont play on luck when concerning PSU...!

Get a good one (not sure abotu INTEX though)...and be happy.!

Not a serious gamer.. Want a graphics card under 4k.. Which has the best vfm? Thanks

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

9500GT under 4k

my suggestion: HD4670 for 4.5k

I don't think it's safe to run a 9600Gt even it's eco edition with a generic 400W psu. Eco edition means it draws power in the range what a pci-e slot can deliver ie 75W unlike a normal 9600Gt which requires around 100W.

Generic psu's have very poor +12V rail ampere rating. To run a 9600Gt your PSU should have atleast 19A rating over +12V rail.

BTW, what are your other components ?

The question is kinda confusing & of course was posted in the wrong section
( it should be on QNA sec - do post in appropriate section from next time )

From your post your screen resolution is 1440*900 & proccy means - processor or CPU

hi, topgear

I ordered the gigabyte board, I hope My Graphics card wont be n issue to it(XFX 250 1GB).I am very worried about it.
And i beg you all to pardon me for disturbing u all for such a long time.

Your system may be able to run this but don't run it on your bro's rig.
if you want a 9600Gt I recommend you to get the Zotac 9600GT eco edition card which does not requires an additional power connector & consumes around 25W less than normal 9600Gt.

BTw, can you mention the ampere rating ( A ) of your psu's +12V rating.
It's written on the side label of the PSU.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I am buying the following:

1) Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 [3.0 GHz (6MB L2 cache 3.0Ghz 1333MHz)]
2) MSI P45 Neo - F [Intel P45 Chipset 1333 FSB]
3) Palit 9600GT 512MB DDR3 256Bit
4) Corsair VX450

It adds up to around 23K.

Now someone please explain to me,do I need extra fans to keep this system from heating up. My current cabinet has no extra case fans. It can accommodate 2 rear and 1 side (maybe 80mm or 92mm) fans (I have a cheap Frontech nero cabinet). So what to do.

Also I was thinking about an option: Cooler master Centurion 590 cabinet which is around 4k. The Centurion 590 cabinet has 2 120mm fans and 6 more optional slots and may have a 12V/26A PSU (do tell me about its SMPS).

Please tell me what should I do. Waiting eagerly for your replies guys....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hi guys,
My plan to but MSI Hd4770 X 2 was delayed by a week... So,now when asked the shopkeeper says he has only 1 card left... will take a week or so for another piece..... But has cards of another manufacturer..
So my question is does 1 MSI hd4770 and the other XFX/powercolor in crossfire has any program conflict,performance lags than to go for same brands ?????

Also is powercolor a good manufacturer ???? If that has to be my last option

Cos i've been thinking of getting it bfore 13th

thanks in advance . .

Ideally there should not be any performance lag..if mixing cards of different manufacture.

They should both be at same clocks. Else the faster card will automatically down clock.
(or you can OC the slower card to match the quicker card)

Powercolor is fine. Have 2 of them -- 4890.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

1) not a problem as long as the cards run at same memory can core clock speeds. In such case, the faster one downclocks itself to the faster one's speed. For HD4770, I don't think anyone except XFX has released overclocked cards.
2) PowerColor is a good brand for ATI cards.

Since you are going for crossfire, you better get card which pushes air outside (like this one *www.xfxforce.com/en-us/products/graphiccards/HD 4000series/4770.aspx instead of something like this *www.powercolor.com/Global/bigpic.a...IE_HD4700_4770_512MB_GDDR5/PSD/image_a_xs.jpg). Because in the latter case, you again have to invest in good CPU cooler. Though I had only one HD4770, I had to install extra side fan for 600 bucks as the temp was increasing inside as heat from HD4770 is being blown onto HDD and CPU components.

yea..go for a dual slot design, these GPUs get really hot, and you seriously do not want that heat inside your cabinet.

Though what cabinet are you planning.

Plan your

1. Power Supply.
2. Ventilation.
3. UPS --> Directly correlated to (1) + 30% overhead.

Really well when going in for XFire.
