Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

There is no sign of price cut for GPUs.....:evil:
I will wait until September.
I'm thinking of getting 9600GT or GT240 or New HD 5570 DDR5 512MB.....:???:
GT240 still over priced and Zotac 9600GT Eco hard to find in Kolkata...:cry:

BTW,how good is is Zebronics 450W PSU ?
I mean is it enough to handle 9600GT Eco with Intel E2180 ?

Whats about HD 5770 is this card good enough to play in 1080 p?

it's good enough for resolution upto 1680*1050

can be vx 450 can be used for 5 years?After 5 years it will be same as powerful as new or not?Cm etreme power 500w totally a bad psu?

After 5 years it's will not be as powerful as a new unit for components aging and it's mainly capacitors - capacitors efficiency degrades with time and heat.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

i dont know how much this fact is true but according to an article i read months ago

it said that the efficiency of a PSU decreases 5-10% each year

conditions:
if the user is using it daily for 8 hrs or something
temperatures dont go sky high

and there were a few more but i couldnt recall it now

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

yes u can go for 460 768 mb version but do keep in mind that u should avoid palit
zotac has the best built quality when it comes to nvidia cards

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Finding it extremely difficult to get hold of a msy 5770 hawk. Asked the local shop 'online IT shoppe'in cochin and they said it will arrive on 15th, but apparently they are busy with Onam stuff.

Then went on to order it on theitwares, and after 3 days, it's still on pending. And no reply from Lynx-India form when i inquired about the availability. :(

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

hi i am going to buy a new gpu card. My budget is 8k. Pls help me to get a good card at this price.
I want to play all the games including latest releases, and also games like crysis at a playable framerate with medium or high settings.

I had HD 4850 and Geforce GTS 250 in my mind. but talking about hd 4850 i have heard that it has some overheating issues. and i dont like them.
I am not going to buy a psu. so pls suggest a card that will run on my pc the way it is .
Also suggest the brands to prefer like zotac or asus or palit etc.

Following is my pc's config.
AMD Athlon II X2 250 @ 3.01GHz,
ASUS M2N68-AM Plus Mobo,
3 GB DDR2 @ 800MHZ,
seagate 7200 500GB, WD Caviar 160GB,

Now talking about my PSU i dont know whether it will be enough or not so i am posting a image of PSU. i think its 550W.

msi hawk is unfortunately not available anywhere!!
seems like i have to wait for the last piece of jigsaw!
would have gone for msi or zotac gtx 460
had it not been for their prohibitive prices and scarce availability

Amrbir at Lynx-India has offered me VaporX or Toxic, instead of Hawk. (5770 all of them), IS it a good deal? I mean, Vapor X has been in my radar before.
