Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
TE has a lot of knowledgeable members. Much more than here, but then again, many of TE's current active members are ex-TDF guys. This forum was as good once upon a time.
I am a regular reader at TE, rarely login. I don't need to, they have enough members.
Bikeinstein is a very knowledgeable guy. Seen many of his posts and been really impressed. If you can, then check out the show off section of TE. You will find some Lian-Li cases and also some custom made OC Bench stations like this one :

Just read some posts there. Found it to be too show off, and noobish. Very similiar to Erodov. It has carry over of Erodov members.
People are saying that FPS is not related to smoothness in a game. An E8400 will bottle neck a 9500GT. He he..!
TDF rules and rocks man. Why would someone from here move to TE..!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
thanx asingh for gud info abt AA & AF....now i know y they r important to gamers...
coz of EYE CANDY in visuals....
For example: if i play POP:Sands of Time in HD4850 & HD4870 with all best ultra high settings...then the graphics will totally differ in both even if settings r same for AA & AF etc
but i doubt coz it such an old game..if it renders dat quality in new cards
Note: One more important thing in GCards is shader model support for transform & lightning....coz whenever we start a game it looks for SM version like SM 2.0,3.0,4.0 etc so a SM 3.0 game wont run on SM 2.0 Card....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
What?? No, if the Graphics settings are same across different GPUs then the game will look exactly same for every GPU, if you run Crysis @ say 1440x900, 2X AA, 16XAF and all settings @ very high on all GPUs then it will look exactly same across all GPUs, but you'll get low FPS on slow GPUs(9600GT,HD4830 etc), while get high FPS on faster GPUs(HD5850, GTX275 etc).thanx asingh for gud info abt AA & AF....now i know y they r important to gamers...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Exactly KaranTh85....and when do u think the price will low down 
???? coz in between all this m missing hell lot of awesome games...man!!!!
Well i was planning to get a PS3 slim but then thought it won't be affordable at all to invest 2-3k in only games....so dropped the idea and now lookin for a video upgrade.
Also one more doubt....i have onboard 128mb graphics with shader model 2.0 support, but when i start COD4 it says SM2.0 detected and Vertex shader not found required for lighting transform.Now wats that
???
abhidev's budget is less than 8k...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Krow is right. I never consulted anyone here before buying my psu. If you saw my earlier posts in the qna thread, i thought that the psu was better than the vx450. Whoever i spoke to recommended the cm600 saying it had more power than the vx450. The pc i bought was my very first, after a whole string of laptops so i never really had any idea about what was good. As mentioned earlier, nvidia recommended 550w so i thought the cm was sufficient. My system is comparatively unbalanced and i should have checked here before purchasing, this must have been about the time i was arguing about why the 4870 beats a gtx260 and ended up taking a 260 sonic for lack of availability. That time i didn't really know that 70+/80+ really mattered. I just read digit long enough to know that a cm or corsair was better than any generic psu and i thought i was on safe ground there. Anyway, lesson learnt and i'll be more careful in the future.
Also, i'm more confused than ever right now and i'm going to be doing some solid reading up till i figure out what exactly is the deal.

So, 1st check the Shader Model Support for COD 4

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
^^ Why would anyone spend around Rs.2.5K when they can get a 9400GT for the same price and by spending 500 bucks more a 9500GT.
BTW, if you are trying to sell this card create a new thread on Bazar section with necessary details

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Some old onboard GPUs(Intel- gma 945) does not have a dedicated 2.0 vertex shader, the driver emulates it, so SM2.0 games(like- prince of persia- sands of time) won't run on it.Exactly KaranTh85
