I am going to use the card with the following config. :-

Core2Duo 2.9Ghz

2GB DDR2 RAM

FSP Saga II 500W @ 2.8k.
CORSAIR CX 400 @ 2.8K

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ gazler - get the corsair CX400W along with GTS 250 512 MB GDDR3 @ ~6k.

BTW, what's the max resolution of your 17 inch monitor - is it 1280*1024 or 1440*900 ??

What you mean by that..?

Those temperatures are fine. You can use Radeon Bios Editor to view your BIOS setting.

ohh thanks so 80 degreees while playing is normal ..oky.. I will look forward for Radeon bios editor ..thanks :)

@ pulsar_swift - the easiest way to install a gfx card is insert it correctly and firmly in it's slot - plug in the power cables if necessary - clear the bios cmos setting by removing and inserting the battery or by jumper settings. When you turn you system back on youyr gx card will be automatically detected and most of the the it does not need any additional config in bios :p

@ chetan.g -

If you have discrete gfx card installed you will get no display and long beeps - the only way to solve this is to reset and clear the cmos setting.

If you gpu is IGP one then there is not much you can do - try fixing a fan above northbridge but if it's a discrete gfx card try increasing the fan speed or else your gfx card has some probs with heating.

BTW, which gfx card do you have or you are using IGP of you mobo ??

thanks for replying, i had IGP ATI radeon HD 4200 now i had disabled that on and using discrete graphics card XFX radeon HD 5770 :)

Can my vx 450 power a gtx 465 in my system?Really need to know this please.

@Chetan.g

Buddy whats your gpu?

XFX radeon HD 5770 .. in my openion u can use any psu of higher 450 W - 600W (for higher power demanding graphics card )

Your system is not up to the mark to render the types of games you want to play at 1680x1050. You should ideally upgrade, depends what you budget it.

No such direct advantage having an nVidia card.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

You need a strong CPU for low resolutions. For that budget, 10K, HD5770 is good. But get a good CPU+PSU.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ chetan.g

You should do a proper cable management in your chassis to get thermal levels down.
Also go for a large fan at the front to suck in air & the rear fan should throw air out. Clean the gpu fan too if possible.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ chetan.g - which cabby and how many fans do you have installed the cabby ??

@ gazler - for 1280*1024 a 9800GT is enough though i would recommend a Palit GTS 250 512MB GDDR3 ( only Rs.500-600 more ) along wih a corsair Cx400W for future proofing :p

@ gopi_vbboy - for your screen resoluion :

get a e7xxx series say a e7500 around 5k
Get a Corsair Cx400W @ 3k
Get a GTS 250 @ 6k ( or a HD5770 around 9k - really a great card with low power consumption )

Total = 14k ( or 17k )

for a complete system upgrade :

A AMD Phenom II tri core CPU ( 435 ) @ 3.5k or Athlon II quad core 630 around 4.5k
A good Biostar 758G chip based matx mobo with DDR3 around 4k ( gigabyte also has a mobo around 4.3k with DDR3 )
2 GB ddr3 mem from Transcend/Kingston/A-data/Corsair around 2.5K
A corsair Vx 450W @ 3.8k

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Will the 9600gt play crysis at good resolutions .?
Good resolution I guess on a 17 inch monitor?? At 1024 X 768 it would be quite playable, had got around 28-30 fps most of the time..I know cause I was a proud owner of a 9600 GT uptil now and have got value for every paisa I have spent on it..great card for that budget..ofcourse for a 22 inch LCD,@ 1920 x1200 res it would fail ..
Just a suggestion..and i might be wrong..if crysis is the game of your dreams, i suggest going in for a higher end graphics card..especially as future is gonna bring more DX 11 and more shaders into the frame..spending around 3.5 K now and then again going in for an upgrade..HMM..better i spend 6K on a GTS 250, heard it is quite good...
You might also try tweaking CVargroups in the crysis installation folder for squeezing about 2-5 fps more...gives a more smoother experience..check out the net for tutorials..:)
