@ashnik well i dont think there will b much of a diff if u put a 6200 gpu.der mite b a slight performance increase but not that much so i dont think payin around 3.5k will b worth.
@anirudhasarawgi
1-Leadtek winfast GeForce 7800 GTX 256MB DDR3 will come around 32k(dont hav any idea bout XFX but i m very sure it will b more expensive).
2-Leadtek GeForce 7800 GT 256MB DDR3 around 26k (dont hav any idea bout XFX but i m very sure it will b more expensive).
3-XFX GeForce 6800 GT 256MB DDR3 around 22k.
@yash u can go for 6200 non tc version which will come around 3.5-4k,6600nu around 6-6.5k,and 6600GT around 9k.6600GT is the best among those 3 card then 6600nu.now its up to u how much budget u hav and wat kind of work u hav if u will b playing high end games then get a 6600GT or else get any one of those other 2 card.

well yea it will b if u go for high end card it wont perform 2 its fullest ability.u can play games like nfsmw in low to medium setting but forget about FEAR it wont run even in medium settings i guess may b in low settings.if u can then i'll suggest u to get more 256MB ram it will definately make sum diff.get a 6600nu for ur rig that shud b the the best choice as 6600GT wont b able to perform at its best with that config,thats wat i feel.

Can you guys suggest me a AGP card (either nVidia or ATi) within 4 thousand?
And which is the best place to look for it in Kolkata?

ok i have been doing this little survey bout XFX 6600 and found these diffrent variations of the cards let me list out the diffrences between them
in this first category there are cards which are PCI-e with DDR memory, with dual DVI or DVI VGA or only DVI ouput option & have memory bus of 128 bit
in the second category there is this card which is also PCI-e with DDR2 memory and not DDR, & TV DVI output(no VGA), the thing i like bout this card is that it has a TV output and is Using DDR2 memory instead of only DDR( i feel DDR2 is preferable to DDR as DDR2 is new) but the memory bus is only 64-bit compared to 128 bit for the other cards,,, is memory bus something i need t be looking out for( what is memory bus plz explaind)??? & it also has something know as low profile enabled which the other cards dont have have plz explain what low profile is,,
P.S what is Dual DVI or DVI or VGA will i be able to connect to my TV(for using as a large monitor) using this DVI or VGA option

let me see if I can explain:
Memory bus: The memory bus is made up of two parts: the data bus and the address bus. When people just make reference to "the memory bus" they are usually referring to the data bus, which carries actual memory data within the PC. The address bus is used to select the memory address that the data will come from or go to on a read or write.
The wider the data part of the bus, the more information that can be transmitted simultaneously. Wider data buses generally mean higher performance. The speed of the bus is dictated by the system clock speed and is the other main driver of bus performance. The bandwidth of the data bus is how much information can flow through it, and is a function of the bus width (in bits) and its speed (in MHz).
Therefore, 256bit is better than 128bit and 64bit gives the lowest performance.
DVI: Short for Digital Visual Interface, a digital interface standard created by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) to convert analog signals into digital signals to accommodate both analog and digital monitors. Data is transmitted using the transition minimized differential signaling (TMDS) protocol, providing a digital signal from the PC's graphics subsystem to the display. The standard specifies a single plug and connector that encompass both the new digital and legacy VGA interfaces, as well as a digital-only plug connector. DVI handles bandwidths in excess of 160 MHz and thus supports UXGA and HDTV with a single set of links. Higher resolutions can be supported with a dual set of links.
IF u have a highend tv/monitor such as LCD, PLASMA etc. then u can use DVI interface. Else for normal tv, connect using the s-video output if available.

Which 6200 AGP model should I go for?
And among the followings which is the best:
6200, 9250, 9250 or 5700.
My budget is max 4k.
Can any of you recommend any particular shop to look for it in Kolkata?

ok i went thru the product details of XFX 6600 on the official site and i found around 10-15 variants of 6600 GPU
i dunno what is DVI output and since i dunno what it is i feel it is not very usefull for me,,, ok now lets cut rite to the chase the cards that support TV output(S-Video connection) have a memory bus of 64 bit where as the cards that do not have TV output have a memory bus of 128bit,, is the memory bus gonna effect my gaming experince cause i would like to go in for the card that has TV output so that when no one is home i can call my friends over and have some 29" TV gaming experiance( that would be coolrite??)but if this memory bus is gonna effect my gaming experiance then i think i will cut out on the TV output thing cause i feel it just wouldnt be worth it but if it wont have any effect then its the best XFX 6600 variant available,,, and another thing i have seen this "memory interface" thing along with "memory bus" all the cards have a memory interface of 128 bit(even the the card that has TV-output) what is memory interface please explain. on some site i read i should be away from cards with 64bit memory bus or interface i am unable to rmr if it was "memory bus" or "memory interface"
