Hardware price list/spec sheet

^^^ Which one would u suggest?

 

[comp@ddict]

The X58 Pro. Although it's got only CFx support, the board actually has copper heatpipes for cooling(it's better than aluminium, much much better). And in performance, it comes in 2-3rd even against the 25k X58 boards. In short, if i7 i920 comes for about 12.5k, Nehalem might just become the new hot option!!

 

[topgear]

@ comp@ddict - He did not ask for the x58 mobos ( I think )
He wanted to know which one he should go for GTX260/HD4870 1GB

@ Techalomaniac - you can run GTX 260 on VX450W just fine coz it can deliver upto 570W

But my suggestion is if your mobo supports CF then get 2 HD4770 & get performance simillar to GTX 280

For techcom it's not a bad brand. They provide 1-3 years warranty of different products.

Does this item appear too cheap to be genuine ?

Found it on EBay. HOW can a biostar GeForce 8200 board sell for 2.85K ???

@ topgear Heartbreak 4 me. I called IT Wares and they told me that the 4770 has been recalled or smthn and wont b avlbl 4 another month and a half or so. But they suggested the 4850 GDDR5 512MB (I think Palit) for 9.5k. Is it good enough and is it worth the buck? If not, then I may just end up goin for the Palit GTX 260 C216 @ 11.1k - ex-ITWares!

 

[saqib_khan]

^^ U r getting good deal on 4850. Go for it.

Strange! Just try other shops on lamington Rd. Try to get sapphire ( recommended ) or MSI HD4770. They should cost you Rs. 6.5 to 7.2K respectively.

And GTX 260 is better than HD4850 GDDR5. So stick with GTX 260 if you don't find HD4770. BTW, Palit GTX 260 Sonic is available for Rs. 11.4K only.

 

[damngoodman999]

In chennai also HD 4770 model from sapphire has been taken back , i think is there some bugs found in the HD 4770 ???

There have been several instances of sellers having 100% feedback and suddenly feedback going down to 70% because he cheats the final guys.

Anyway, any news of AMD Athlon X2 4050e 45W Energy Efficient CPU entering India ?

 

[comp@ddict]

^^No idea!!

But they suggested the 4850 GDDR5 512MB

This card is good enough for 1680x1050 with 8/4x AA and 1920x1080 w/o AA. But GTX260 is good enough for 1920x1080 with 8/4x AA too, however it has wee-bit more power consumption than HD4850 512MB GDDR5 and is 1.6k costlier. SO it's upto you, what you need and how much you wanna shell out.

I'm getting the SONIC (OC) edition for 11.1k. Maybe that's what I'll go for as 9.5k and 11.1k is not too big a difference for me if the performance gains are good enough. Can any1 post any good comparative reviews featuring the 4850 DDR5, GTX 260 C216 SONIC, 4870 1GB, all with proper drivers(no betas!)? Thanks a lot. I cant seem to find any reviews of the 4850 DDR5!!!

In chennai also HD 4770 model from sapphire has been taken back , i think is there some bugs found in the HD 4770 ???

No clue whatsoever. Even the dealers dont know!!!
I'm goin 2 lamington 2day and i'll try my best to make some sense outta this whole darn hyper-BS!!!

 

[Krow]

@ comp@ddict I can shell out the money as I want a bit of future proofing as I mostly am gonna go for a good 22" monitor in a couple of months. Is there any major price cut or new product launch slated anytime in the near future as I cn wait a bit for the GFX card. This is bcz I cn play Burnout Paradise on my integrated ATI 3300 GFX solution!!!

 

[desiibond]

@Techalomaniac, in that case, you wait for 40nm cards to come out. But the wait could be around 2 months. And the initial price of those cards will be sky high.

You can get a HD4770 for now as this is going to be a hot selling card for another 2 to three months.

the availability of HD 4770 is getting low , only sapphire sells the HD 4770 its not available in tamil nadu right now .

the distributor said that there is price slash in GTX260 cards & HD 4870 also GTX 275 & HD 4890 with in JUNE !!!

 

[desiibond]

Among those four, I would pick GTX275.

 

[MetalheadGautham]

I hope Comp@ddict doesn't mind, I edited his post because some things were bold and needn't be, others deserve to be bold but weren't. 8)

Okay, I'll Cnfrm that 2day. Minus, the 4770, today, the GTX260 SONIC C216 appears 2 b the best option 4 me! Shame, as I prefer ATI/AMD. Why is the pricing of the 4870 512MB so bull-headed @ 11.5-12.5k??? I thought ATI were the ones spearheading the price war!

Anyways, any idea when these 2 beauties coming 2 India???
*www.techspot.com/review/171-amd-phenomx2-athlonx2/
I cn recommend them to all those on a tight budget as I'm sick and tired of people falling to Intel's brand name(as I once did!)!!! @ $87 & $102, these look to be great deals!!!
