Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
What is the resolution you are planing to use? IF it is Full HD (1920X1080) then some of the currents game will not run fluently in their high or highest setting. In My case there was a considerable fps drop when I switched to full HD, even in case of Call of Juarez 2. Batman Arkum Asylum or Crysis will affect much the performance.
So better wait for sometime to get your extra budget 1K and go for HD 6850.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
i am planning to go full hd in a yrs time
what the price of a 6850 and from where can i order it online (at a reasonable price)
i guess the price of 6850 must be on the higher side as its a new card
which brand should i go with if i choose 6850??

Sapphire & MSI are @ same price
XFX is good but RMA is problem ! (RASHI)
Better go for Sapphire or MSi

@ssb
msi is 11700 ans sapphire at 11200 on smc
@damngoodman
can you confirm the xfx's price, i wont be having any problems with rashi
so if xfx is good i can consider it too
how is msi and sapphire service support??
can the price of 6850 be expected to drop in a month or two??
(while i save for it)
also dont you guys think that 68xx series is very new, hence not tried and tested like 5770??
i am leaning towards 5770 for purely monetary reasons

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
^^I tolja "not cent percent sure"..But hey I was close(usually I get the numbers wrong 'cause I've very bad memory).Yesterday I had checked the prices.
BTW do they(SMC) have XFX's 6850?
The reduction of prices will depend on 2 things :
1.)Pricing of 69-- series &
2.)Reduction in GTX460 prices & further reduction in GTX470.(Purely my thoughts so please don't criticize).
Just play the waiting game till a couple of weeks after the launch of 69-- series & if the prices don't fall then go for 6850(provided you have saved up enough).

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
GTX 460 1GB the price will reduce , im not sure abt the HD 6850 cause its newly lauched card
if u afford 12K then Get GTX 460 1GB , The OCed GTX 460 1GB touches HD 6870
HD 6870 or HD 6850 cant OC much !
^^^hahaha, you were close
nopes, smc only has msi and sapphire models
delta peri. has xfx range
can someone comment on msi and sapphire service support

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
From where you get that HD 6850 can't OC much? Every brand is now releasing their tweaked version of 6850 and their performance is somehow 15 to 20% better than the reference version. Even the reference board can be Oced without any problem to get 6 to 10% boost.
And it beasts all the reference GTX 460 768 MB and actually equal to 1 GB version.
regarding HD 6870, it is far ahead of GTX 460 1 GB, even the over clocked one. Even if say a super clocked GTX 460 reduces the performance gap, that one is going to cost more than the reference version too.
So @ 10 to 11K budget HD 6850 is the best option for the OP.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Hi guys...
I am going to buy Sapphire Radeon HD 5670 1 GB DDR5..
I have Asus P5QPL-AM Motherboard.
The confusion is...
My motherboard has x16 PCIe Slot of 1.1 Architecture.
whereas the gfx card is PCIe 2.0..
so will it be a problem ?
I've seen few people having few problems of gfx card not detecting...
Need quick replies.
Help me out...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Nowadays everybody is clever and intelligent and also very precise, so how on earth a GTX 460 is selling at higher price than a HD 6870 and why will people accept it? Is Nvidia that mad, I ain't sure. I don't get this frankly.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
NVIDIA GTX 460 was release to fight against Amd 5770 so then their pricing is fair in spite of Amd es 5770.But now ati fights back and released 6850@11k so their price vs performance is better than nvidia 460.
Nvidia should drop their 460 pricing then their will a real fight.
Wait till Jan 2011 NVIDIA is releasing GTX 560.I am hoping to buy this card with corsair 550vx

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Damngoodman999 was talking about the msi gtx 460 hawk which is a overcloced version and its true that it touches a stock 6870's performance.
Pricing is more or less the same and you get the added benefits of cuda and physx and a bit better tesselation prowess.
oc'ed versions of 6850 and 6870 aren't out yet but they too will cost more.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
1st of all Oced version of 6870 is not possible right now as AMD only allowing their reference PCB to its board partners for HD 6870.
There are plenty of Overclocked version of 6850 is in the market, may be gonna hit India very soon. Examples are MSI Radeon HD 6850 Cyclone OC , Power Color Radeon HD PCS+ (820 MHz compared to 770 MHz reference), ASUS EAH6850 etc and all of them perform on the per with GTX 460 1 GB. Their Tessellation performance is also improved compared to 5800 series. compared to CUDA you will also get ATI Stream or APP (Accelerated parallel Processing).
And PhysX hmm, tricky thing. Check out the analysis in Tomshardware. When a single Gfx card is used for PhysX and Game their performance is not very different from CPU PhysX. Untill you have a dedicated card equivalent to minimum 9600GT, there won't be any earth shattering difference.
That's why today's most of the Tech review sites like Tomshardware or guru3d don't recommend cards for CUDA or PhysX, they said it is a add on feature but not at all any deciding factor, at least for now.
Regarding Tessellation performance in Tomshardware review is is told that "At the end of the day, Nvidia still outperforms AMD in synthetic measures of tessellation. But we still haven't seen a game capable of coming anywhere close to giving Nvidia an advantage due to its geometric processing potential."
