@ Rockstar09 - If you hold your horses then you should get GT240 instead. It's more powerful than HD4670 and does not need a external pci-e power plug.
Or get the card that Krow has suggested

Hi, guys saw the 240GT, its a good card DDR3 to DDR5 mem. If better than 4670 I surely dont mind holding my horses. When is it launching in India and its price??
Are 220GT and 210GT any good, I think so they fall in 9400GT category???

here is my directX screenshot

here too the GPU memory is said to be 512mb

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Ok...the GPU-Z is showing the exact IGP memory. And the rest is showing, how much the OS is actually allocating to the system for graphics rendering. So 128MB from you RAM is being matched to the IGP to give a total of 512MB. Its all right. No issues.

^sory i didn`t catch that,
plz explain it.
Again when i share 64mb ram then other softs shows GPU memory as 256mb. why so??

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ How are 'you' sharing it. The OS automatically allocates the memory which will also be available to the IGP. In your case it is 128MB.

GT240 is 99$, then it should cost about 4.5-5.5k here, faster than 9600GT/GSO and supports DX10.1. It should launch in 2-3 weeks max.
GT220 and GT210 are possible HTPC cards but not for gaming absolutely. GT240 is good for any budget gaming system that can play most games @ 1440x900 @ medium with no AA(except Crysis)

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ asigh - I think he is sharing it with the BIOS option

@ CA50 - You are sharing the amount of Ram you want to allocate to the IGP through BIOS option ??

I think his 7100 IGP using Turbo cache feature though in a smart way

So When He allocates 64 MB the Bios allocates 4 times of Ram to the IGP and when he allocates 128 the IGP solution is using 512MB as Vram or frame buffer.

@ tkin - Thanks for the news update

It should be cost near 5K but I think it will cost more......

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@tkin, GT240 is not faster than 9600GT. in some benchmarks, it does lag behind and the price in India would be around 6k which makes it not worthy buy. anyways, let's wait and see.

thanks man for your replies, when i share 128mb through BIOS, the Ram properties shown in POST screen and in windows is 896mb. So as you can see 512mb is not shared, only 128mb is share, but why the GPU memory is said to be 512mb

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Is there any difference between DX10 and DX10.1? BTW, what the hell's this!?

*i422.photobucket.com/albums/pp302/nvidiageek/asasas.jpg

I'm usin' my cousin's GF9800GTX+ which's 512MB, but it's showin' 1.9GB! I'm the happiest man!

Anybody seein' this?

I think I saw Zotac GT240 selling for 5.7k at Erodov.com...

^^ Seems like a cosmetic error. Just use GPU-Z to verify the GPU details.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

My System configuration is:

Intel Pentium D 3.0 ghz
2 gb ram
Intel original 945 gccr board
HDD seagate 160 gb
Nvidia 9600Gt 512 MB DDR3
SMPS 450 Watt

The problem is that whenever I try to play games like Call of duty , Prototype , Crysis and even Cricket 2009 . The games works at a very slow fps, I looks as the problem is with the Power Suply unit of the system as while running POP 4 its got malfunctioned and system crashed...

Is really a SMPS problem here or anything else ..
Please help

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

This is not the place you have to post for Agent 001's answers

at what resolution are you gaming?
does any of your friends have branded SMPS? if yes, see if you can hook it up to your rig and test gaming.
