Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ arthasdk2 - get Gigabyte Superb 460W PSU @ 2.2k and Palit GTS 250 512MB @ 6.2k

BTW, here's normal comparision of memory and gpu performance of HD4870 @ HD resolution since very few people will play games at 2560*1600

Since HD4870 is a good gpu which performs better than GTS 250 and is neck to neck with GTX 260 I selected it's test results for comparison as it will give you a fair idea but note that this is not true for all gfx card though

Not much difference

Huge Difference

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hey guys i recently installed my new graphics card MSI R5770 on ASUS P5GCMX...but my pc takes a litlle more time to boot...abt 30-35 sec to just bring the mobo specification screen........pls help huys....also the "Medal of honour-Airborne" doesn't run smoothly...y is that???

update the ati radeon catalyst to 10.4.....
the booting of the system depends on RAM,proccy etc...not just the graphics card alone....
it may happen that the sync between mobo & card is little delayed....

if u still face the problem...update ur mobo BIOS to latest version...

at the beginning everything works fine. just game for 1 week & than give us your feedback or if you want a fast result, run FurMark or FutureMark benchmark suite. just know buddy, PSU will die. surely. just hope your newly brought card don't.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i just ordered GT240 @ Rs5350/- and i want to know that is 450W odyssey SMPS is enough for it?

Nvidia site shows minimum SMPS = 300w

@ gaurav

i play @ 1024X768

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ Why you've ordered for GT240 - though it's good it's not good enough as HD5670 which you should have bought at the same price - the only advantage GT240 has is PhysX and CUDA support - if you need these two feature the GT240 is good enough.

As regarding your PSU - it should run your gfx card but if you can change to a better PSU like Gigabyte LC 400W @ 1.5k

@ Jripper - please post the link of that thread - you can always use the PM feature.

@ KaranTh85 - ati catalyst 10.6 is already released

@ arthasdk2 - performance wise GTS 250 is far more better than HD5670 and hell yeah it's even better than HD5750 the only catch is power consumption as it consumes nearly around 50-60W more compared to HD5750

@ gourav.gunjan - if I remember correctly you're running that gfx card on "circle" 400W PSU - better get Corsair VX450W or CX400W one atleast to be safe and get the peace of mind.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i hunted all shops in my local market but failed to find HD5670 or HD5750. tried to order one from lucknow. but the dealers told me that both cards are not available

i had no options but to order GT240.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I have an old pc with the following configuration:

• pentium 4 (2.6ghz)
• intel D915GAV mother board
• (512+256) mb RAM (suckz... i knw..)
• lpe 223-400 power supply(i am guessing 250W)

I dual boot xp and mint.I recently bought a philips 22" monitor capable of 1080p.So presumably HD videos are far from smooth.I understand its because of the low memory and the old processor.So I added a friend's nvidia 9400GT to see if things got any better.The issue i face is that whenever i plug in the card the pc does not boot(it turns on i guess because the fans are running).It works fine if i disconnect the card.I also switched to a 450W power supply to see if it helped but in vain.The card works fine on other pc's.I am not particular about this card. i just want my PC to run HD movies and hopefully win 7.I am ready to buy a gig or two of RAM if need be but definitely cant afford a new board and processor.I tried all the plugging and unplugging and cleaning sockets and stuff.Please help me out.

50-60W. so what will be the total power consumption over HD5670? around 80W more? well that straightforward means change of PSU if the old one was a cheap one.

Now my q is I will b adding Hd 5770 gpu with 2gb rams..will this psu survive and secondly the gpu I chose is ok or something better I will get in this budget max 10k 4 gpu...'

 

[pulsar_swift]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

OK. HD5770 should cost you 9.5K. You need a good PSU. Go for Corsair VX450 @ 3.8K or CM GX550W @4.4K

better be safe. get a VX450W or try get the CM GX550W.

about the HD5770, its best choice at that price. but do try get one with custom cooler, like MSI HAWX or check if PowerColor have any good model at sale. the stock AMD heatsink design isn't very good one. makes more noise & less cooling.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@Arnab, no this PSU will not be able to handle HD5770, extreme series is a bad PSU, rally bad. If you buy HD5770, get a corsair VX550. Stay away from Cooler Master extreme series PSUs, & now that you have bought it, use it only till you are using IGP, change it as soon as you buy a gfx card.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Even I think so..but it will pinch me harder as my psu is just 4 days old and if I sell it after getting through rma.. I will get half the price I bought it...'

Guys will they will give me a new psu or some repaired one..?

 

[asingh]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^
It depends. They might repair or give new one. Just do not use it, even if they give it back. It conked off just with IGP. Buy the VX450 and try to sell off the CM E -- make the most of it. It is sad, true.
