I have Intel Pentium D 3.0 Ghz with 6600 GT with 1 GB DDR2.Is this configuration good for quality performance?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Yeah you are right I just wanted to know how will it perform.My budget was not such that I can afford a very expensive gfx card.So I spend my money on Nvidia 6600 GT 256 MB(Rs. 7600).And I will use it for at least 2 years.As far as RAM is concerned i have a option of going for maximum 4 GB.But one question I want to ask is what's the difference b/w Pentium D and Core 2 Duo?samrulez said:

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
There u go .. just proved urself a n00b .. FEAR can't do soft shadows and AA together .... if u have both of them enabled , then the games uses AA ...
And i give u a proof .. and you don't want to believe me ??? And u give only links to other reviews .??? Dude ... i get ur point ... ur g*y ... and probably gonna mate with ur PC via USB ... This is will be my last ever reply to a fckd up n00b nm "akshayt" ....
Well .. considering the current gen. of games. . u can do really ok without HDr ... but the 6600GT is supposed to be a budget midrange card now .. so u really can't expect much anymore ... but hey ... like i said .. its quite ok ...

@akshayt
i have read most of ur arguements and though u did make a valid poing in the begining, u have been talking nonsense since then, a 3500+ with X1950 will be better than a X2 4200+ with 7600GT, this does not mean one sell his X2 4200+, also one will prefer purchasing the later combo because we do more than playing games.....
and please cut out ur nonsense, i did not want to indulge but ur last few posts make no point, he is trying to logically make a point there and if u keep asking "Where's the logic?" none can help you.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
I was looking for XFX 6600GT but have to settle for leadtek as the former is not avaliable.. I want to know which one to go for among these.. a lot of models shown here
*www.leadtek.com/Graphic_tran_6.htm
There is a Winfast PX6600 series and a A6600 series

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Damn guys whatz goin on here... visited this thread after a few days and WHAM! u guys are playing quake4 with each other....
Anyways i came to ask this:
My PC: AMD3000+ / 1 GB DDR400/ A8N SLI/ One 6600GT PCIe 256mb/ 2x160GB RAID-0
Now i want to upgrade my system mainley for gaming.. so I have these options
1. Sell my 6600 and buy a new card. which one do u suggest?
2. Buy another 6600GT
3. Upgrade my CPU
my budget is 10000....
if i go for option 1 then what card falles in the price range of 10000 + 6600GT selling price.
If i go for Option 2 then can anyone enlighten me with the cost of a new XFX 6600GT 256Mb PCIe
If i go for option 3 then what AMD proc can be brought is range of 10000 + A64 3000+ selling price. also would there me much impact on games by upgrading CPU
Ya and if i sell Both Pro and GFX then which new Pro and GFX card can i buy in the budget?
thanks in advance

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Get a 7600GT for ~10k's ... u already have a mobo thats awesome with oc'ing ... so you can get ur 3000+ to 2.4 aka 3800+ GHz in no time ... invest in a better PSU if u have some cash left ... ... getting another single core right now would make no sense ... gather some cash and then directly get a X2 3800+ atleast . which should be around 8k's .... the 7600GT would be better than 2*6600GT if not the same .. and it'll do good even with the stock processor .. and if u do oc then it's a whole new story ...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
no point selling procy, OC it, and get a 7600GT, that should be costing u the same as getting aother 6600GT, i mean (purchase - sale) cost..... u can sell old 6600GT for 3-4k and get new one for 11k, keep the extra cash for a procy upgrade later, right now, after OC'ing it will work great, sonn enough X2 4200+ will be dirt cheap and u can get one

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Now guys that is my kinda talk.....
I already have my a64 3000+ OCed to 2.6GHZ.. so ok no proc selly..
i was also thinking to wait for those cool X2s to get cheap
I want to know if the 7600GT or GS have better tech then 6600GT.. i mean is it worth buying or if there is no new tech(without which a gamer cannot live) in it then i can just go for another 6600GT. My system is kool with SLI. u know....
Also most benchmarks i run.. all show my ram to be low performing.can u suggest some ram manufacturer whose ram is cheap+good performer. i have hynex cheap ram.
BTW my PSU is 550W. so no trouble there

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Well ... likewise .. a single 7600GT will be much better in handling HDr or rather more widely SM3.0 than a 6600GT SLi ... so i'd always recommend that over the two of those ... now ... the 7600's can really get an awesome oc. . most cards easily do 600/1600 on stock cooling .. and some people get even higher .. and since u dont have much problem with oc ... then definitely get the 7600GT ...
Also about the ram .. how did u draw the conclusion that the ram is performing much lower ??? I mean .. with my cheap hynix modules i easily get > 6000 MBps read speed ... so thats quite optimal .. can't ask more i guess ...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Actaully prices already dropped, i just talked to the AMD guy in india and the X2 3800+ is already 9100/- so it's already begun, though u might wanna wait some more....
and yeah, 7600GT is a whole diffrent core, it is a 7series card, and uses the same core as 7800 n all, actually the core is just being held back to make a 7600GT, so u have a good overclocking overhead, most 7600GT cores will clock stable at 600/800 or slightly higher, no matter which card u begin with, so if u are an overclocker, does not matter if u get the 560/700 or 590/800 version of the card, save some money and get 560/700, waise bhi u wont get the 590/800 version most prolly
ram...umm.. ok if ur hynix gives a good performance no prob, these dats our market has already defaulted to a better ram than hynix, Some "TwinMos" ram is the default in market which is a good CL=2.5 ram, with respectable benchies, apart from that, transcend, kingston, Corsair are already available... but if u good good benchies, dont bother a read speed above 5500MB/s is more than good enough if one is not sharing memory in GFX card, which u are not
