I hope you are aware of that fact that GTX 560ti is a Product from Nvdia's Family & HD6950 is from Radeon.

So definitely you gonna have some good times switching them......Nice Go ahead & post the experience.

Yes i know the difference but i don't understand your intention. Is it in a good way you saying or bad?

 

[d3p]

Yes, its in a good intention only.

Coz, You can be a best person, who can be contacted for performance differences.

my nvidia gtx-250 is causing my computer to enter "power saving mode" after every few mins....its 2 yr old card........

Ppl near home say that gp-cards can't be repaired and have asked me to replace it.....my budget is 5-7k max.......

 

[d3p]

Do you mean it enter to power saving mode, when the system is idle for 5mins ??

Verify the Power Savings Options from the Control Panel & change the settings from 5mins to never upon your wish.

 

[LegendKiller]

no, yaar as soon as i log-in sometimes........all the power-options are turned to never on my pc......

i have a intel processor, suggest me a good gpu for 5-7k which will do well with latest games like deus-ex, batman etc......

Can u provide us your current PC config.. Like processor model, mobo, PSU, etc.

 

[guru_urug]

For 7k AMD HD 6770 is the best you can get currently.

I really think that you should try and verify if your problem is fixable, before investing in a new GPU. Try your card on a friends PC

 

[LegendKiller]

Processor: intel q9400
RAM: 2gb DDR3
Mobo: Gigabyte eq45-s2

Do amd gpu's work with intel processors?

Do amd gpu's work with intel processors?

That isn't a prob. which PSU/SMPS ?

 

[LegendKiller]

well after opening my cabinet it says Coolmasters RS-350, which i think means 350w......i had to purchase this to go with my gtx-250 gpu....so angry that zotac gt-250 didn't even last 2yrs.......

 

[guru_urug]

@LegendKiller Your PSU is a CM extreme series PSU,those PSU's are not good and are over-rated. A GTS 250 would need a good 400W power supply atleast. I think your PSU is the culprit here. most likely the power-saving mode is caused by that too. So check your card on another PC and see if it works. If cards fine then change your PSU asap!

 

[coderunknown]

problem most likely is with the GPU. & as stated by guru_urug, its cause of the low quality PSU. GPU didn't receive enough power.
