Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Hi Guys.

I Had almost decided upon 5770 HAWK.. until i heard abt GTX460.. heard its better than 5830 . And also , it will be arnd 12K. So, kindly advice which one should I go for, as I have an all -AMD based system , so will the AMD 5770 compliment the system in a better way ? and when will GTX460 be available easily ..any ideas? Last week ,I got 2Gb kingston ddr3 also .. so now just , the GPU is missing ...
I think my corsair vx550 will be enough to handle this 460 ...


I am presently using my old 7600GS :grin: . Will it be able to run Far CRY2 ??

Thats a lots of questions , sorry :p

I know this has been asked thousand times, but I will ask again. Sorry about it.

If I have a card with 1GB memory then should I go for 4GB RAM or 2GB RAM on mobo ?

Hi,

I am using Asus RD 2 VM board with 2.66 dual core Pentium and 2GB transcend ram.
The board supports DDR 2 Ram. I want to buy ATI 5450 XFX card. This card has DDR 3 1gb ram on it. My question is will this DDR2 supported board supports the card with DD3 ram? Also is it advisable to go with this card on this board?
Please reply fast

There are no hard and fast rules. You can go for anything 2GB or 4GB depends on ur budget.

1GB version of HD5450 is waste in its purest form. Whats your budget ? you can go for HD5670 512MB @ 5.2K

nope. 4Gb ram + the graphics card (along with its memory) will offer an extra set of hands. but if your work includes video encoding & no gaming, get GT240-250. if gaming + encoding/processing, get HD5670 512Mb or HD5570 512Mb GDDR3 or HD4670 512Mb GDDR3.

your board memory isn't connected to graphics card memory in any way. so even if you have DDR/DDR2/DDR3 memory. you can use any card whose connector matches the slot in your board namely PCIe X 16 in your case i think.

for card, if you in for gaming, please mention the resolution you game at, PSU with proper rating & total budget. but with your proccy, anything over HD5670, GT240 will get bottlenecked.

assuming you are pointing to GTS 250 ( in GT240-250 section ) which is very much capable of handling both gaming and video encoding properly.

GTS 250 512MB GDDR3 is far more better than HD 4670/5570/5670 if you compare only gaming performance.

Hey thanx buddy....:)

you welcome ... :p

Yes, I have decided to go with MSI's GTS 250 GPU for 7.2k as on theitwares.com

Comes with D-Sub adaptor so my microtek grandpa can also take it :p

oh yes buddy. you right. my mistake. should have mentioned only GT240. GTS250 is still a hot selling card. just its power requirements as high as its gaming/encoding power :smile:
