Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

its 12.5k right now.right?(the lower size version)
if ATI comes up with 6xxx series at the year end
then Nvidia will surely slash down prices(following the ATI strategy)

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@piyush bhaiya mere 58xx series ka replacement (wch is not going to be named 6000 series.) will come in around feb-march.

this year only 54xx and 56xx families phase out. and that too may end up ocuuring in jan end.

if you are getting something between 5830 and 5850 for 12.5k you should get , provided it doesnt have many flaws such as heat and power hogging.

if it is really worth going for over 5770 or is it really a better choice in place of 5850.

but i agree the dollar prices are really nice at 199and 294.so 768 mb 460 should be around 10800-12k and 1 gb version max 14.5k.

thus we will have a 5850 drop or a 5860 soon :D

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

guys, the question of the decade
how much difference in visual quality and beauty does physx make in a game?
is there a noticeable difference,
or is it barely noticeable?

is the premium paid for physx worth it or total crap?

If u really need DX11 then HD 5570 and if not HD 4670 is more than enough.
And u don't need 1GB memory,512MB is way to go.....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

The price difference of HD 5570 and HD 5670 is very tiny - only 400-500 bucks or so but the performance difference is just huge - so getting HD 5670 512MB version would be a wiser decision.

Think of playing crysis warhead at 1024*768 resolution with enthusiast level settings - you will know the difference between HD 5570 and HD 5670 :p

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i can now dream of your config. Aah i can see it properly.
You have a ---processor and ---mobo and --- HDD. Okie VX450 will be able to run your GTX460
but the problem is vx450 has 1x6pin pcie connector

whereas the card requires 2x6pin pcie connector

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

if you interested in buying one now then MSI HD 5770 HAWK @ ~ 9.5k

if you can hold your horses little more then get GTX 460 768MB edition though keep in mind that it may be well around ~12k.

BTW, what's your HW config and psu ??

you can always use a 4 pin 2x molex to 1x 6 pin pci-e power converter - every video card ( which requires some external power ) comes with them :p

I think you missed it. VX450 provides 390W on 12 V rail. GTX460 load power consumption is 280W. so rest of the system config should consume close to 120W, which i think is not possible. So a VX550 is necessary

OMG ! the power consumption of the card itself is around 145 - 160 W for 768 MB and 1 GB one respectively.

Depends. What else will you put on along with the GTX460 accelerator..?

i will be putting an athlon 635,2x2gb sticks ddr3,1 wd 500gb hdd,dvdrw and considering a vx 450 and the best card which can go with it..:smile:

p.s.
will be gaming at 16000x900(native resolution of dell s2009w)
