Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Why why why people underestimate the value of PSU i dont understand.
You are well ready to shell out 8K and willing to take the risk of blowing it due to poor PSU but wouldn't spare decent 3K on a basic PSU.

Without proper PSU its not a matter of will it blow the Graphic card,but rahter when.
Don't say you were never warned.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

You can get a 5850 for 8k.
However don't blame anyone if your PC goes up in smoke. xDD

Anyways,if you can wait a little,try to get a 5770 when its price falls to 8k.
If its needed immediately then go for a 5750.
However:-

5850:- You MAY have power problems.
5670:-No problemo.It only consumes 75 watts on load.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Ok guys.I want a graphics card to play few games on my DELL 19" widescreen Ultrasharp monitor 1440 X 900 is the max resolution it supports.

Here is my current config
AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE with CM Hyper TX3
ASUS M4A785TD V EVO
4GB CORSAIR DDR3 (1333Mhz) RAM
WD Green 500GB
Seagate 320GB
1 LG DVD Drive
2 120 mm chasis fans and 1 80mm fan

most importantly PSU is VIP GOLD 500W

Preconditions: PSU will not be upgraded, so dont say please upgrade the PSU.

Suggest a card which will fit in ?

HD5670 is the current choice. But I somehow like HD5750. Budget is 8K

go for HD5670 512Mb. enough for 19". also your PSU isn't too bad. can support HD5750. however your rest of system is a bit too heavy,

u can go for 5750 but it'll be risky
5670 will have no problem in dealing with this resolution

biggest problem is your proccy + mobo. u got a terrific mobo. a full ATX with hell lot of features. bad thing, its power hungry.

won't tell anything about proccy. its already power hungry at 125W. well u may do 1 thing is lower the core speed to 3Ghz + lower core voltage as low as possible, while its stable. this way your total prower consumption wil be significantly low.

also if u buy HD5750, try get the 512Mb version. 1GB version not too good (1Gb too much memory). 512Mb wil use less power. & wil also cost 7k or so. it mayn't be readily available now. so keep an eye on market.

See, a 5670 needs a minimal 400W supply. But your system is power heavy. Even if you remove the 320GB platter, that will just shave of 10-15W from the load. I would suggest to get a better PSU, else save and buy later. It is far to risky. If you want I can keep a watch on TE for you, if any good PSU comes up for sale.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Guys need help again

9800gt 1Gb :-RS 6350 but only 'Tagan and corsair is available, Tagan 500W which can support up to 600W :- RS 3250

As asked previously u denied Tagan..

If forgoten my specs are

c2d 1.8ghz (c2d 4300)
Intel org D946Gzis
160 gb Sata hard-disk
2 Gb DDR2

future upgrades

at least 320gb Hard-disk
2gb Ram DDR2

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Tagan 500W should be fine. Why not..?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ pulsar_swift.
Why do u want to run in the risk of feeding low power to your system it will only lead to some frequent crashes....
Your rig is power hungry and even if u remove the 320Gb HDD u won't get that much headroom for adding a new GPU and might worsen the conditions of ur rig...
So I suggest u better think wisely and invest in a good PSU ....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Going for Asus P7P55-d
intel i5 750
Corsair 4gb
corsair 650 PSU
Iball workhorse cabby
extra fan iball 8cm
Thanx for the suggestion

Get a better cabinet. Full ATX if you can manage. Which GPU will you get..?

Tagan 500W should be fine. Why not..?

Ok I asked as I remember post of Sam.shab who denied it .. this will take load of my future products too, as mentioned above.. to one whom I talked he is stressing on that it can take Load upto 600W..

is it true?

 

[asingh]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^
Who ever is saying Tagan 500 can be mapped to 600W is incorrect. It 'might', but it is running a device beyond what it is certified and tested to do so. Depending on you GPU flavor, the Tagan 500W should be manageable.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

hmmm i agree wid mamba..

 

[pulsar_swift]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Guys, not even HD5670 (512MB) will fit in ?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Power consumption is the same. So you are still 'standing' where you were before. Sorry to say.

By the way there is a GO on at TE for Gigabyte LC400. Here is the official link, and here is a review link. Seems pretty nice. The price would be 1650+ shipping. This unit does not have any PCI.E 6+2 pin connectors. If you want this, let me know, can coordinate the deal for you.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

From pulsar_swift config - calculation of approx power consumption :

AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE with CM Hyper TX3 - 130W ( TX3 120mm fan 5W )
ASUS M4A785TD V EVO - 40W ??
4GB CORSAIR DDR3 (1333Mhz) RAM - 20W
WD Green 500GB - 10W
Seagate 320GB -10W
1 LG DVD Drive -10W
2 120 mm chasis fans and 1 80mm fan -15W

Total - 235

A HD 5750 concumes say 90W so total 235W+90W = 325W

So his PSU should have 28A rating for trhe 12V rail - then it will be somewhat safe to run the gfx card with his rig

I don't think the VIP Gold 500W has 28A rating on 12V rail - so getting a new PSU with atleast 28-30A is recommended.

There is no specs on the website :
*www.kunhar.com/vipcabinets/smps03.html

Some quotes :

VIP 500W gold is L & C 8500 BTX This is one of the bottom PSU makers in PSU lineup but it is definitely be better than generic PSU's.
Buy Corsair or Coolermaster at least.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

OK guys, here is what the sticker on the PSU says

Lets do some number crunching and come up with the power output of this VIP GOLD 500W PSU

 

[clmlbx]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

C2D 1.8ghz (C2D 4300)
Intel org. D946gzis
4 Gb DDR2
160 gb sata
320 gbs sata
1 Lg dvd writer
1 tv tuner
and other normal componenets

will buy Tagan 500W
9800Gt

will tagan take all the load with 9800gt in it ..

Finally will buy Tomorrow, First thing in morning.

Sorry I am asking again n again bcoz if anything went wrong it will be forever ..as I am on very tight budget
