Graphics Cards related queries here.
Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Well...my present GFX card (8800 GTX) has died one month after it was RMAd. I already compromised on 4 months of gaming because of the bloody akshay enterprise...so I can't really wait for some future GFX cards to hit the market (and am not really an ATI fanboy). Considering the present nvidia cards in the market...which can be the right one within my budget (13k)?

PS: Stay away from palit cards as they might overheat, look for msi.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
To all GTX460 freaks out here... I saw one spanky new MSI Cyclone 1GB OC'd version at Vedant today... Finally the Kolkattans have something to cheer!
@Anx02
You might consider Balaji Computers (previously Computer World, I heard they recently omitted this name) & Arihant as options if you are looking for easy to available parts or laptops, might land you a good deal... done quite a great shopping from the former previously (even bought my only piece available lappy from them)

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
^^ That's great - have you checked the price ??
@ Anx02 - if you can spend get the 1Gb GTX 460 but 768MB GTX 460 is very good as well for it's price.
@ kartik gandham - what kind of slot your mobo has - AGP or PCI-E ??
@ hsnayvid - congrats for your new card

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
No, I got too involved with my MoBo issue to get a price check..
I hope Anx02 could get us a price today

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
I am planning to buy a laptop that I would mainly be using for the following:
1. Browsing
2. Programming
3. Watching movies
4. Photoshopping (Adobe CS5 preferably)
5. Will use some simple animation/illustration softwares (not frequently)
Which of the following specifications would u suggest?
1. Compaq Presario CQ62-111TX
Intel Core i3 330M
3 GB RAM DDR3
320 GB HDD (7400 rpm)
512 ATI graphics card
Windows 7 premium 32 bit
Price: Rs. 38,000/-
2. Dell Inspiron 15R
Intel core i3 370M
4GB RAM
500 GB HDD (5400 rpm)
Intel HD Graphics (Any idea how much the video memory is, in this case?)
Windows 7 Premium 64 bit
Price: Rs. 41,000/-
3. Dell Inspiron 15R (Not sure if this specification is still around)
Intel core i3 3570M
4GB RAM
320 GB HDD (5400 rpm)
512 ATI graphics card
Windows 7 premium 64 bit
Price: Rs. 40,000/- (Dell has removed this configuration from their web site this week. Not sure if it is available anymore)
I am unsure whether I would really require the dedicated graphics card. If it is not necessary then I can opt for a higher Memory/HDD configuration.
Also, which brand would give me a better value for money?
Some other queries:How good is an ATI Radeon HD 5430 Graphics with 512mb vram?
Will this support Adobe Photoshop CS5 and other simple animation softwares?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Guys , some help please.
Need a Intel i3/Core2Duo cpu + mobo (GA-P55M-USB3 or G41M-COMBO) + GPU (HD4670 or 5570 or GT240) for around 13-15K.
Problems include:
1. Power supply limited to 400W.
2. Should be able to run Civ V/Diablo III/Shogun II TW
3. Preferably current games at medium.
Any suggestions on a build config?
Any ideas on how many SATA drives I can connect (have a 320Gb + planned 1 TB + old 500 GB PATA). Will the power supply be enough?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Guys, the sellers @chandni have become butchers (at least to new faces).
Although I was a bit late to go there today, still, the shops I visited gave kinda the same answers. Vedant shocked me the most. I saw that cyclone on the shelf as well, but they asked for 14.5k+VAT. 
What else is available? Oh right, the palit one @13.5k+VAT. The rest of the shops I entered (Technocrat, Starcomp, Eastern Logica, MD computers) told me that they don't have anything except Palit (and that too around the same price as Vedant...or even higher). MD comp said that they have Palit and Zotac @13.2k+VAT and they're taking pre-orders for the MSI Cyclone @14.1k+VAT, and it'll take 2 days to get it. I mean, what the hell?? I thought I'd get the the Cyclone at the price of Palit. God knows what I'm gonna do.

@Anx02
don't forget, the card at Vedant in the OC'd one... it's bound to be pricey..
Better wait some days, there should be more shops selling them and would end the monopoly
@quad_core
don't wait so long for something in hardware market... the development is never going to stop & the companies will go on adding new products to their pipeline...
buy something with 2~3yrs headroom in futureproofing and it will be a worthy buy
