^^that should be enough to run 9500GT, which takes very very less amount of power.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hi guys.....I'm planning to buy a XFX 9500GT 1GB. I'm currently using my default SMPS tat came with my cabinet. Its Tech-com(PSP-4500) 450Watt.

The output in SMPS stated as....
+5v 25A
-5v 0.5A
+12v 10A
-12v 0.5A
+3.3v 14A
+5VSB 1.5A

And the input is stated as....
230v/50Hz/3A




Now my ques is.......Can I buy tat card?? I mean will it run on my SMPS without ny prblm?? If yes then can I ever upgrade my proccy to C2D or add some more HDD's later???

You will need to change your smps , Before buying a new smps check that the 12v rating on smps must be greater then 26a . 9500gt would atleast need 16-20a on 12v rail .

@ rajkumar_pb - I've used colorsit personally. So you can count on that. It has two fans. One at the bottom of the PSU and the another at the back and is rated 19A on +12V rail on it's 450W model. It's golden color PSU . It can easily handle a 9600GT

Zebby PSU is a bit high priced in your locality. If you can't find colorsit then you can go for zebby 450W platinum.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

If you are lucky enough then you can get a HD4770 or HD4850. But you need a a good branded PSU for that if your PSU is generic one.

If you don't want to buy a PSU then look for Zotac 9600Gt ECO edition.

For a cpu upgrade get phenom II x2 550 whicjh is Rs. 5.5K - though you will need proper BIOS support - look at asus's website if your mobo supports that proc.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Ok , finally purchased coolermaster 500w extrme power plus for Rs 2750 .
Still have about 7k with me , can extend upto 300-500 bucks . Which card should i go for now .
SMPS ratings are
+3.3v = 22a ,
+5v = 25a ,
+12v1 = 18a ,
+12v2 = 18a ,
-12v = 0.5a ,
+5vsb = 2.5a

Sapphire HD4770 512MB or better Sapphire 4850 1GB or GTS250 Palit 512MB @ 7.3k (all around same price)

Get Palit GTS 250 512MB or Sapphire 4850 1GB - though I would pick the green devil

Quadro cards are optimised for designing purpose (eg. AUTOCAD) and are not recommended for gaming.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Bought a new MSI HD4670 1GB for 4.6k.(Prices in chennai seems a bit high). Does my 450W PSU(rated max output 240W) will handle it, along with all other components of my PC? Or do i need to buy some other higher rated PSU's? (yup, a low cost PSU like Zebby 500W SATA II)

It seems to be fine. At max load you will pull in ~160W-190W. (Full system)
