Graphics Cards related queries here.
Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
@ pulsar_swift - the rating is somewhat mosleading - there should be a combined wattage rating of the 2x +12V rails - for eg. CM 500W extreme power plus has also 18A+18A rating for 2x +12V rails but the combined output is only 360W
A typical distribution for 2x +12V rail is :
one +12V rail is for mobo power cable and all other peripheral cable and another +12V rail is for cpu power connector.
Now theoretically if your CPU draws power from a separate +12V rail then the load on another +12V would be around 200W
But now for practical thing - VIP 500W Gold's power rating is very deceiving as even a CM extreme power plus 500W has a rating of 360W for it's combined +12V rails but your's is around 432W which is simply impossible.
I've a big doubt even if it can deliver 280-300W - so there is a great risk with your current PSU if you want to buy a new gfx card like HD 5750.
So it's better be safe to buy a new PSU from brands like FSP,CM,Gigabyte,Corsair or Seasonic which has decent ratings ( and somewhat real )
@ clmlbx - you are talking about Tagan 500W TG500-U37 right ? it's from tagan's stonerock series - well it should support the load of your rig along with a 9800Gt.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
OK guys, graphics card plan has been suspended, until availability of funds for CORSAIR VX 550 and HD 5770. 4900 +10000 = 15K
Thanks for your inputs. special thanks to top gear for the calculations.

9800gt is out of stock and he says It is no more manufactured so no availability better buy GTS 250
GTS 250 512mb :- 5900
GTS 250 1GB :- 6850
I can only buy 512mb version ...will my tagan is enough for it ?
After search of several hours ..I Found 1 who says he will make available tomorrow but he will sell at 6200
So now which is best 9800gt 1Gb at 6200 or GTS 250 512 at 5900

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Thanks, but I have an option to change my PSU from Corsair 550W to Coolermaster GX 650 W for the same price
Please, tell me whether I should stick to Corsair 550W or go for Coolermaster GX 650W ??
PS: I may add another 500 GB HD .. so will Coolermaster GX 650W be a better option?
and yeah, I must add that I don't have much idea about PSUs

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
^^ Have you bought the PSU ? if not have a look at Corsair CX 400 or Seasonic 430W around 3K.
Performance Wise GTS 250 512MB is better than 9800GT but do keep in mind that GTS 250 also consumes around 35-40W more power compared to 9800GT.
Your power consumption with a GTS 250 will be around 300W - I think Tagan 500W wil be able to handle it.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
cant tell much about it b'coz i have not received any feedback yet
ur vx 550 is more than enough
even if u add more hdd, it will suffice
wait for a while if u wanna go for GX series(even i'm lookin forward to buy 1)
meanwhile enjoy some games like bfbc2
GX series is newThanks, but I have an option to change my PSU from Corsair 550W to Coolermaster GX 650 W for the same price

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
No I have not bought Psu. Only corsair and Tagan is available . but as future proof Tagan 500 is better then corsair cx 400 and tagan cost just 200 more tagan 500w = 3200. and about that "it can output 600W".. well their is a logo on tagan Box shouting "max upto 600W". As I saw the Box.
finally will go for GTS 250 512mb and tagan 500W as now he said this both are available so hope so I will have both today in my hands.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
@clmlbx - Tagan is good but I think you should have gone with Corsair CX 400 as it too has a max output of around 500W coupled with 80+ efficiency which Tagan lacks.
For GTS 250 look for Plait E-Green Edition ot MSI Twin Frozr if you can find one.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
^^ tagan says output upto 600W
well I bought and installed the components just now.. I bought tagan 500w and Palit gts250
I don't know what is the difference between Plait E-Green Edition and normal one .. but on bar code it says GTS 250 Green 512MB DDR3
well thanx to all of you who helped specially to
