new one is 3.5k to 3.8k
so second hand should not cost more than 2k at all circumstances

Whats the specs of your current system ?

If you are unsure, goto 'Run' and type 'dxdiag' (without the quotes) and post everything you see in the 'System' tab over here.

Onboard Audio: Audio that you hear when you connect speakers or headphones to the jack inputs of the motheboard.

GPU HDMI: If the GPU has HDMI capability, then it can also output audio if and HDMI cable and device is used. Basically another AUDIO OUTPUT device is added. It shows up in the hardware manager.

Re: Graphics Cards related "general" queries here.

^ thanks asingh, but i already know that. :)

i was basically asking about any quality differences between them.
also, does the HDMI device also processes the audio or is it only used for outputting the final audio signal to the wire?

i'm assuming that your PSU is of extreme series by cooler master
and since you are not a hardcore gamer plus resolution is 1440*900

i would suggest sapphire/MSI /Asus HD 5750 @ 6.2k
and if by any chance you have future upgrade plans for your monitor, then go for sapphire/MSI HD 5770 @ 7.2k

but i would recommend you to buy a new-->reliable PSU if toy go for a better GFX card

Re: Graphics Cards related "general" queries here.

my gtx580 has memory speed at 1002mhz gddr5.

but in msi afterburner, it shows as 2004mhz ??

it should logically be shown as 1002/4008 mhz.

Re: Graphics Cards related "general" queries here.

was doing some testing on my gtx580.
in 3dmark 11, at extreme preset, i get score of 7.53 fps @ 920/1840/2100.

looking at that score, to get an acceptable 30, you need greater than 3xgtx580. :shock:
