Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

one more question..... I want to install a aftermarket cooler for my 4850 (the one i buy) bcoz a lot of people say it runs really hot (80 C).So i want to install Thermalright VGA Cooler HR-03 plus i have 2 questions

1. Will it void my warranty ?
2. How long is the warranty for graphics cards by palit ?

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Palit offers 3 year warranty on the HD4850. Installing a 3rd party cooler will not void your warranty. The only chance you have of having your warranty nulled is when you mess with the heatsink or the cooler fan on the GPU, modify it in anyway or cause any other damage to the GPU for which you bear responsibilty.

@ aniket4562000

You Should Go For nVIDIA 9600GSO. But It Will Extend Your Buget By 1k.

Don't Go For XFX 8600GT. It Has Heating Problem

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Can anyone tell me how to find out if ur system supports an AGP or PCI card or something else( i am a complete novice in cards,don't know a thing and eager for knowledge)................Also what is the cheapest 128MB GFX card available(not a very rich guy u know)...................and, i have an onboard 128MB Intel 82945G Express Chipset Family, now if i install an external card will a game use both the card's graphics memory or will it use only 1................For e.g if a game requires a 256 MB card and i install a 128 MB card in addition to the onboard one stated above will the game use both the onboard and off-board card or will it use only one of them.

Stay away from cards, sharing with system memory. These cards just increase performance marginally.

I also want to buy a new graphics card...and as far as I know 9600gso is a pretty good card for mid range....but palit is the only brand I am hearing about this days....can anyone tell if 9600gso of other brand is available in india???

I am in kolkata and I want 2 buy a 9600gso Galaxy overclocked edition (AS IT CAN BE SOFT AND BIOSMODDED)...is the galaxy one available in kolkata???

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

hows the palit 9600gso 786 mb sonic priced in india and where do i buy it from ?

 

[Night-Rider]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Its good. There is not much difference in brands, buy anyone that you can find cheap. I ordered for a Sapphire and the dealer gave me Palit anyway.

Does the card heat up? What are the temperatures for ur card? At load and idle? I aslo want to buy this card and was thinking that is it good?

You don't have any case fan ( except the proc & smps fan ).
So if your cabby has provision for front & rear fan ( as most cabby do ) install as
required.

Your mobo is based on intel 945G chipset so it should have a pci-ex gfx slot. Check your mobo manual.
BTW which mobo do you have. Mention exact model & company name.
So you can install any pci-e gfx card. Look for cards Like 9600GSO, 8800GT or ATI 4850.

If you install a separate gfx card games will use the gfx cads memory instead of your onboard gfx memory which depends on your system ram.

What about xfx and leadtek. Leadtek can be compared to the best and price is always reasonable. This is the card *www.leadtek.com/eng/3d_graphic/overview.asp?lineid=1&pronameid=422

Check with M.D. Computers. Donno about galaxy's availablity.
