Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ abhidev Wait for some time. The prices of cards will fall soon. For a cheap and good smps, try the Corsair CX400W @ 3.2k or the Tagan TG-500-U37 @ 3.2k. The rest of the money you can invest in your graphic card, for which I advise you wait as within 15-20 days ATI 58xx series will launch in US and we shall see them in India pretty soon. Then cards will be cheaper. :) If you are in a hurry, the best card you can get for upto 7k is GTS250 512MB GDDR3 @ 7k.

@ sree01 Can play Crysis @ medium settings with ease. Not too good if you looking for video encoding, but better than Intel E5300.

@abhidev, PNY, BFG are not available in India and I don't think it's easy to get Sparkle. EVGA is a permium brand and if you can their GTS250 inside 7.5k, go for it else look for Palit

DDR3 and GDDR3 ??? I think GFX cards have only GDDR3 not DDR3.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@abhidev, ah okay. got your point. go for GDDR3 one.

@Techalomaniac, DDR3 can still be used for GPU but I don't think anyone's using DDR3 for GPU anymore.

GFX card manufacturer's who use DDR2 on low end gfx cards should use DDR3 instead :p

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Here you go..some final images..of how the 5XXX series will look.

1. The 5870 is quite long.
2. The DVI/VGA connectors are placed above each others not side-by-side.
3. The heat release fins look a bit too small.

They look nice...
