MSI GTS 250 512MB GDDR3 is available @ only 5.8 K and 1 GB version is 6.7K and Twin Frozr edition with 1 GB GDDR3 is only Rs. 7.1K

From where did you quote these prices?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i thought it was gtx300. judt googled it.
some results came that said nvidia has skipped 300 series.
could that mean revolutionary changes? :)):))

it was suppose to be GTX300 but yesterday they confirmed it through Twitter that GT310 only 3 series card. Fermi wil b GTX400.


No change. Its same GF100 die based on Fermi architecture. But it'll cost lot cause 1st & foremost its going 2 be faster than ATI 5series & moreover die size is seriously HUGE.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

c2d e7300 2.6ghz(oc to 3.33 ghz)
intel dg35ec mobo (g35 chipset)
2gb ddr2 @ 800mhz
500gb seagate hdd
1360x768 monitor(that i dont plan to upgrade soon)
what was the fps you got at that res and single 4890 with everything max?
to be completely smooth, i expect it should be about 30-40 fps :?: ??

OKay. I ran some tests. On Win7 64BIT on Dx10 Codepath.

Here is a 3x run on the Warhead Benchmarking Utility.

With Xfire on:

With Xfire off:
*img138.imageshack.us/img138/1965/warheadsingle.jpg

See the difference in average FPS. So Xfire will make quite a difference. But I am playing on 1920 x on 1080. So if you play on 1400 x 900, you might get better results with a single HD4890.

yeah, googled it and read more about it.
the die size is going to be HUGE and would be only for the enthusiasts!
maybe ati will reduce the price of 5800.

thanks A LOT MAN!:grin:
your CPU IS AT 4671 MHZ!!!!!!!!!!!
THATS F*****G AWESOME!:!:
GREAT OC!!!

i think that in crysis 24 fps should be pretty playable and smooth.

Actually I think the benchmark tool is reading that CPU speed incorrect. BIOS, CPUZ, Windows, and all other applications show it at 4.00...!

^^ DAMN!
and here i thought you had set some record or such in oc!!:grin:

4ghz is still pretty though!
and thanks a lot for the benchieS man!
i hope to get a few more fps than your test setup as i use xp(dx9.0c).

no. there wil b budget cards also. based on fermi but fewer transistors & smaller die size. & yes, ATI wil cut price when Nvidia start kicking their A**. good for consumers.

& don't b surprised if Nvidia demands a price of 50k for their highend gpu's like GTX 495 or GTX 490, the dual GPU solution.

I know it is high. As of now am running on a down clocked Mx with a really high FSB :

Now on:
FSB X Multiplier : 444.9 Mhz x 9 = 4.00 Ghz
vCore : 1.432
Ram: 5-5-5-15 @ 534 Mhz @ 2.1V (5:6)

Prior to this I was on:
FSB X Multiplier : 381 Mhz x 10.5 = 4.00 Ghz
vCore : 1.432
Ram: 5-5-5-15 @ 503 Mhz @ 2.1V (cannot remember the FSB : DRAM ratio)

I will kill that motherboard and/or chip very soon..! :)

50k is a distinct possibility
gotta stick to ati
ati is "more bang for the bucks"
am probably gonna buy the 4890 within 1-2 weeks

is it on air?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I have gigabyte G31M S2L mobo with onboard 3100 graphics chipset. it has one VGA output which i connect to my 15" CRT.

Now I want to buy one 20" LCD dell or samsung. ppl say that using DVI gives more quality than VGA for LCDs. Is it true? If yes I have to buy a graphics card with DVI output.
1) My budget for card is 2 - 2.5k. So which card to buy?
2) Will the new graphics card reduces the burden on the Processor while playing and converting Videos, etc (mostly 720p)?
3) Is it going to upscale the low resolution videos like 420p while playing?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ prvprv

Buddy vga cable transmits analog signal whereas dvi transmits digital signals directly.In case of vga the digital signal is converted into analog using ramdacs and we alla know digital signal quality is better than anlog.

For your mobo, and budget try out the Radeon 5450 @ 50$ or 2500 inr which has excellent video decoding capabilities including ati stream and eyefinity support.
Wait for a wee bit more for availability.

if Nvidia can put 2 fully blown GF100 die in 1 single PCB (IMPOSSIBLE), then even more than 55k looks possible. but for that much money, u can get a full PC with HD4890 graphics or maybe HD5850 is you push hard.

nice oc there

you'll need a vcore voltage of that kind to reach 4Ghz. Still nice OC. Hyper 212 doing a decent job. Still 2 mighty HD4890 & a single E7300, though 4Ghz, looks little imbalance. With an E8500, performance wil be noticeably higher.

Still hats off to such an OC on a relatively low cost proccy.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hey, I have a 790 GX board (HD 3300) supporting hybrid crossfire. i need to know should I opt for a hybrid crossfire enabled card or any other card within Rs. 6000. Also, tell me which cards can I use as hybrid crossfire.
Will there be any difference between DX 10 & 11 with games played in low settings? Also, can I play DX 11 titles with DX 10 card?
My PC specs: AMD athlon X2 245(2.9 GHz),3x1GB RAM,2 HDDs & 450 W PSU

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I'm thinking of getting a GTS250(Please don't tell me to go for HD4850).
I'm thinking of getting the MSI GTS250 Twin Frozr Edition but I'm not able to get it. I'm still searching.

If I do not get it which brand GTS250 should I go for? Palit? Zotac?
Also which variant? 512MB or 1GB?
