Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

I did installed the new ati catalyst 10.4 drivers...but no change...it still takes time to boot up.....nything wrong in the graphics card installation???

install 10.6 ATI Drivers....:grin:
i think ur mobo is PCI-E 1.0...so initial detection of Card takes time.....
u must be wondering dat it used to bootup quickly on IGP....:))

It does not matter what revision the PCIx16 socket is and the driver version, cause the VGA accelerator drivers only kick - in once Windows OS has loaded. Seems weird that the boot time is so long. And you are saying, that for the POST screen to appear it takes 30-40 seconds..? Is the IGP disabled..?

Corsair VX450W for HD4770 & HD4850. VX550 for HD4870. but still depends what else you have dumped inside your cabby.

^^ corsair VX 550W :p

@ KaranTh85 - catalyst 10.6 64 bit driver is available for both xp and win 7.

@ scare crow - clean the slot > Seat the gfx card properly > set gfx card as the primary display in bios ( clear CMOS setting by jumper or or by removing the CMOS battery ) if these not works then try updating your mobo bios.

@ abhidev - check your mobo bios - is it updated with the latest version - if not try updating your mobo bios - you can also try the above methods.

@ Sam.Shab - HD 5670 around ~75W - HD 5750 around ~95W - HD 5770 ~110W - GTS 250 ~ 150W

150W for GTS250 !!! thats a bit too much. better invest in HD5750 or HD5770. over time the extra cost will be filled up by slight lower electricity bill.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Is it possible to use an ATI HD 5570 GPU with a Core i3 on a Intel DH55TC board? I feel ATI had better VFM.

too much power consumption = extra heat, puts a stress on other system components too as well as the air conditioner if you are using one in the room.

that PSU is a good one. will hold your rig well. don't worry. won't go up. well GTS250 is power hungry & lacks DX11.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ HD 5770 is better than GTS 250 but a little bit less in performance as compared to GTX 260 which is again a power ( 160W ) hungry ( but powerful as well ) old generation Dx 10 GPU
