Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hey guys.. need some help here! I have an Intel Core 2 duo 2.7 ghz, 4 GB DDR2 RAM, 500 GB HDD, XFX nforce 630i motherboard, xfx geforce 9600gt 1 GB DDR3 gfx card and a 480 watt psu and an 18.5" widescreen LG monitor. Running games like Assassin's Creed II and NFS Shift shouldn't be a problem on this machine right? But still, at max res., which is 1360 x 768 on my monitor, which all settings turned to high, I'm only getting about 20 fps. Please help. Is it the psu which needs changing or something? Someone plz help!!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

thanx for the input dude.will my CM extreme power 650W be able to take 5830..i'm running MSI NX8800GT OC(well it was the best offering at that time) on it..or i'll need to change it..it has 2 12v rails..that's not a problem..or should i see out this month to see what NVIDIA releases in dx11 so that'll effect the overall pricing scene for ATI also?and the ATI card does not have support for PhysX aswell if i'm not wrong..

Well, I think you should go with some new PSU, as according to most of the Forum members, it is not good enough for a good Gfx card.
Although there are lot of people in this forum, and I personally know some people who are using Extreme series PSU for a long time without any hassle (for example Hellknight).
Even my roomie is using it with a GTX285 for almost 10 months without any problem.

What's your pc config ( in details ) ??

Generally a Corsair HX 650W/TX650 around 6.5-7.2K ( depends on place ) will do just fine

DX9 games crashing on en9800gt!

Hi guys.I have a PC with the following configuration

Intel C2D E7500 @ 2.93GHz
Intel DG41RQI MOBO
Asus EN9800GT Graphics Card
4GB DDR2 800MHz RAM
OS:XP and Vista
Well the problem is that DX9 games crash occassionally on my en9800gt.No problems with DX10 games even if they are rendered using dx9 while palying on xp. Also there is no problem while using the onboard GMA-X4500.
I recently figured out that my psu has a rating of 350 watts only.Could this be the problem,if so then why isn't there any problem with dx10 games?I tried updating the driver but it didn't work.Please help......

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ Dushy_smartguy - what's the series of your CM PSU ?

Is it GS/ Real power pro or Extreme plus series ??

@ Neuron - your PSU is not enough to power up the 9800GT - get a good PSU like Corsair CX 400W @ 3K asap.

 

[rahul.007]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ neuron:-

change that psu to corsair cx 400w @ 2.8k (as topgear suggested) or even a fsp saga 500w @ 2.8k would suffice....

@xquib:-

i m nt sure if 4670 would run fine on your rig + psu.... let others comment....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hi guys

Finally placed an order for corsair vx550w , for 5.2K...i know its bit expensive by rs 300 (approx), but couldnt help it. I came across one PSU from cooler master the GX550 and GX650 . gx650 for around 5.3-5.5K. How is this PSU as compared to VX550? Should i change my VX550 and get a CM GX650? I intend to install a mid-range card like 5770 hawk.

Also the MSI 5770 hawk 1gb is for around 9.6K .. Is this the right price?

Thanks

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

VX 550 is more than enough for your HD5770. Its tried and tested. CM GX series are new on the block.

MSI HD 5770 Hawx @ 10.1K.
