First of all which psu do you have ? and what are your other hardware specifications ?

^If the older drivers are not giving any problem, then stick to them. Quite a few people are having issues with nvidia's newer drivers.

I too use 9800GTX+ om XP SP3 and have the latest drivers installed. But I never faced any problem (even with older drivers). I suspect something else is wrong with your system.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Buying a 4850 now would be a waste. Although it can fairly run all those mentioned games on Full HD. U 've waited too long for the card & now just wait little for prices to go down a bit for the Dx11 hardware.

when the price will go down??1-2 month ??

@ sundar07- get either GTX 260 or HD4870 1GB GDD5 edition cards

^+1 to GTX 260. Its better.

any idea abt the price of this card??
my budget is 7-8k max

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

GTX260 is around 10k right now and the best one to get is Palit GTX260 Sonic. costs around 10k and is a terrific card.

hi m new here and trying to create a new thread about a hardware problem m facing but wenever i click 'new thread' it shows i dont have sufficient priviliges help out plz, i think it may be related to my graphics card, can some one post a new thread on my behalf?
problem:
I turn on the pc, LEDs blink [red and green both] for long time before finally settling at green [just like at normal boot], no beeps.
but there is no display on the monitor. the LCD power just glows orange like its at standby..
monitor works with some one else's rig. so problem definitely with system unit.
my specs:
amd athlon 64 x2 5600+
2 x 1gb ddr2 corsair
xfx geforce 8800gt 512mb alpha dog
msi k9 neo v3 mobo
sata hdd and dvdrw
antec 450v psu

i believe there's no onboard graphics.
sometimes, after 40-50 tries of on/off of the ups, the machine starts up. but when shuts down it chokes on the same prob again wen next starting up

did you try to use PSU and RAM on any other rig. these two are the usual culprits

can you wait till end of November. By that time, HD5850 should be avilable inside 15k and will be a worthy buy. Else you can get HD5770 once it's prices gets below 10k. if it's urgent, go for Palit GTX260 Sonic.

that is a good system and gtx 260 sonic from palit is your best bet , but if you can wait for about a month then prices will fall and some new cards from nvidia are going to be launched . If u cant wait then go ahead with palit gts 260 sonic .

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^+1 to both rohan and desii. But really, who can't wait that much considering the performance gain?

Is the IGP not enough? 2.5k hmmm... seems a waste of the money to me. But, if you need it, then get the card for ~2k.

if this is your board *en.kioskea.net/guide/details/959824-msi-k9n-neo-f-v3, then it should support phenom II X4 but I wouldn't suggest that as bhaskar had few issues with using am3 processor on am2 board (though am2+ board is pretty good).

right now, dx11 cards are very very overpriced and it's better if you can wait for a month or two for this.
