Limit of VX450!!

[MegaMind]

Hi guys ,
I need ur help in choosing a good graphic card. I am getting the gpu from U.S, budget $250(extended to $300 IF necessary). I'll be gaming for hours. My PSU is vx450W. I'm not going to change my PSU so suggest me a GPU that my PSU can handle. I needed a future proof gpu...

My rig,
CPU : q8400(stock)
mobo : DG43GT
Ram : 6GB ddr2-800mhz
psu : vx450
apu : XONAR DX
gpu : 9800gt

So far i've been gaming at 1440*900, now bought a 23" full HD monitor so i hope 9800gt cant handle Full HD.... Thanks in advance..

Can vx450 run 560ti without any prob?

 

[vickybat]

^^ Yes it can easily. Its that good. But don't think about multigpu setups with a vx450.

true.
multigpu setups require atleast 600W to be on the safe side.

 

[Piyush]

^^and that has to be the quality one

I'll never go for multi gpu setup with vx450....

it should.

dude buy the 560 and oc it. it easily matches 570 then.

no it cant

 

[Gaurav Bhattacharjee]

also 560ti core clock has been oc'd to over 1GHz stable.
but at your resolutions you don't even need to get 570 or oc the 560ti.
the stock 560ti will do fine.

Thanks a lot.... so shall i buy the cheapest 560?

 

[Piyush]

go for msi/zotac

Msi gtx 560 twin frozr II/oc @ 15.5k is the version to get.

Msi gtx 560 twin frozr II/oc @ 15.5k is the version to get.

ya the msi twin frozr version is awesome. factory-oc'd. and more.

MSI N560GTX-TI Twin Frozr II/OC GeForce GTX 560 Ti 1GB

Is there any gpu brand which gives international warranty???

 

[ithehappy]

Msi gtx 560 twin frozr II/oc @ 15.5k is the version to get.

or wait for the ASUS one I guess.

 

[vickybat]

^^pricewise, both are equally good and perform neck to neck. Twin frozr II is one heck of a deal. Plus it also has good overclocking potential.

 

[ithehappy]

Yes, but I guess Asus one is slightly better and if it comes at a price lesser than the MSI then it'd be a nice deal too

^^ The asus one will be slightly expensive in india. All asus products are. The gtx 560 direct cu might be over 16k. That makes the msi a better choice in india. But if asus manages to stay within 16k(highly unlikely), it will be the best 560.

I am getting the gpu from U.S thats why asked for intl. warranty
