I'm not selling, neither is he. It was a gift and he'd rather die than part with it!
I just put up the pics if anyone wants to see what the card and packages are like.

So you would say that a quad core will yield better performance than a dual core in GTA 4?

hell yes.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^Which SMPS?

Most probably a generic PSU....

@r4gs:
Yup,it is. Go see some reviews or the link posted by desiibond. You may know the exact thing. All day, a Quad Core is better than stale,eol C2D's.

^Yeah looks like it, but who knows, some people may forget to post that they have HX1000W.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

yes. you do need a better PSU to go with new card.

Here are your choices:

1) HD5770 + Corsair VX450W (15k gone)
2) GTX260 + Corsair VX450W (14k gone)
3) GTS250/HD4850 1Gb + Corsair VX450W (11k)

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

On Saturday I went to primeabgb & configured the list

Core-i 5 --- 10.2k
Gigabyte mobo --- 6.8k
1TB HDD -- 4100
RAM GSKill 4gb -- 6.5k (it is the cheapest)
SMPS--- CM 2800
Ati Radeon HD5770 --- 12100
HD5750--- 9800

when i asked about HD4870 he told me 2 go for series5XXX cards bcoz the HD4870 is costly.....
More over for Cabinet he told me to buy Rs1600k CM cabinet & install an external fan for Rs 500????will dat be ok....he told me it is enough for cooling the cards & all

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Which cabinet is he recommending for RS1600..?

The HD4870 is not that expensive since it is. The Powercolor HD4870 (1GB) is available for RS 9850(pre-taxes).

The HD4870 is quicker than both the 5xxx series card you have suggested.

Radeon HD5970 2GB
Geforce GTX295 1792MB
Radeon HD4870X2 2GB
Radeon HD5870 1GB
Radeon HD5850 1GB
Radeon HD4850X2 2GB
Geforce GTX285 2GB
Geforce GTX285 1GB
Radeon HD4890 2GB
Radeon HD4890 1GB
Radeon HD4850X2 1GB
Geforce GTX 275 1792MB
Geforce GTX 280 1GB
Geforce GTX 275 896MB
Geforce 9800GX2 1GB
Geforce GTX 260 1792MB
Radeon HD4870 1GB
Geforce GTX 260-216 896MB
Radeon HD5770 1GB
Radeon HD4870 512MB
Geforce GTX 260 896MB
Radeon HD3870X2 1GB
Radeon HD5750 1GB
Geforce GTS 250 1GB
Radeon HD4850 1GB
Geforce 9800GTX+ 512MB/GTS250 512MB
Radeon HD4850 512MB
Radeon HD4770 512MB
Geforce 8800Ultra 768MB
Geforce 9800GTX 512MB

You dealer meant the HD4870 is costly relative to what...?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Which SMPS for 2.8k. I repeat, don't buy CM Extreme. CM Real Power Pro 460W @ 3.5k.

 

[r4gs]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

yes. you do need a better PSU to go with new card.

Here are your choices:

1) HD5770 + Corsair VX450W (15k gone)
2) GTX260 + Corsair VX450W (14k gone)
3) GTS250/HD4850 1Gb + Corsair VX450W (11k)

@clear_lot: Go for the 3rd option suggested if you don't plan to upgrade your processor anytime soon. e7300 will bottleneck your system otherwise.
I'm not sure about the 260 as the '260 sonic' was bottlenecked, maybe standard 260 won't be, but I'm not sure.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I think it is CM RS500-PCARA3 Extreme Power + 500W (2.8k)

is it good....

moreover the pair Core-i5 + Gigabyte is 17k....will i get a better lower price in some other vendor in lamington....coz i dont know abt ne other shops there ????

@asingh : ok i will check the price again in Lamington for HD 4870 (may be they dnt had)

If the above PSU is not gud then can i go for ne of this two

Tagan TG500-U37 --Rs 3525
CorSair VX450W -- Rs 3950

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^Try E-lounge, address is at www.theitwares.com. You can bargain with Prime though. NO, the Extreme plus is not anywhere near the Real Power Pro 460W. Better go for CM Real Power Pro 460W.

ok.. but will the bargain work..coz they get new customers every minute..y they will do dat..."ek customer nahi toh doosra sahi"

more the HD4870 is priced above 10k @itwares....

the CM Real Pro is better than VX450 or what ???

 

[Krow]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^Its pretty much equal to VX450W. Try bargaining. If nothing, get a better quote from E-lounge and try again. You are the consumer. Jaago graahak jaago.

Ya, true. Also you will not be able to OC the CPU for higher performance, since you are on a vanilla Intel board.
