hi,
i want graphics card for 3D modeling under 11k, only NVIDIA cards, because Blender Cycles rendering engine supports Cuda, that's why i prefer nvidia.

My System Config:

Intel - DH67BL Motherboard
Intel - i5 2500 Processor
Corsair 1600MHZ ram
Corsair GS 600W Smps.

I think he meant to say... It's only GTX 560 not Ti Version becoz Ti price is around 14500...

Thanks but price not mentioned for nvidia 560.
i like to buy nvidia brand, i already visited that thread but there Zotac/Msi price mentioned.

why buying nvidia is have any problem /lack of performance / price difference.
i think in my locality nvidia is easily available.

Err dude zotac/msi 560 ti are nvidia cards. :| Just from different manufacturers. The chipset is the same and is made by nvidia only. :\

Nvidia does not make the cards or the end products. They djust design the chip or the GPU (graphics processing Unit). By using that GPU companies like Zotac, Palit, MSI, Asus, XFX manufacture the Graphics card.

oh ok.
what is cuda cores?
cuda core is essential for my rendering process.
more cuda cores have high power or less cuda cores have high power?
which is the best GPU GTX 460 / 550ti /560 under 11K.

@ Cilus
which brand is best Zotac/MSI, no idea about GPU so i confused to choose the right brand.

CUDA stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, a parallel processing architecture developed by Nvidia. It is the compute Engine in Nvidia GPUs. Now Graphics Processing Units or GPU is consisting of several small processing units called Stream processors. Since they nvidia stream processors are able to execute CUDA architecture based programs, they are also termed as CUDA cores. So more number of stream processors present inside a GPU, more the performance is. CUDA plugin is available for several programming languages like C++, Visual Studio C#, Fortrain, Python, Java etc and using those development platforms applications can take advantage of the huge parallel processing capabilities of Nvidia GPUs compared to the slower CPU performance.
Most of the 3D modelling software like 3Ds Max, Adobe premier have CUDA support; so they can be accelerated by using Nvidia based GPUs.

Within 11K, GTX 560 has the maximum number of stream processors and the best performer among the cards you've mentioned.

CUDA cores is Nvidia's term for Shaders/Stream Processors. They are called CUDA Cores because they are capable of executing CUDA coded C/C++/Fortran etc tasks.

Nvidia designs the GPU and reference PCB, TSMC makes the GPU and the AIB partners use various assembly lines like those of Foxconn to get the Graphics card made.

nice explanation, if nvidia gtx 560 have 336 cuda cores means msi/zotac gtx 560 are also have same cuda cores?
i visited the msi page GTX 560
which one is 10.8k from that three models.
10.8K price in which locality.

Yes, GTX 560 for all the companies will have same number of CUDA cores. Get the MSI one without any doubt.

iam in confusion about choosing gtx 560 or gtx 560ti.
but not able to expand budget more than 11k.
Any chance GTX 560ti price dropdown in 2 to 3 months.

maybe or may not be.....

Unless Nvidia Launches new series or ATi reduces prices.. I don't think there will be much price drop in 2 or 3 months... There's no harm in waiting if it is not urgent for you...

My point of view ..it's better to go for Ti version... it's better than normal 560 version..

If not for gaming and it's just for your application purpose then go for 560 version instead of Ti version becoz you won't find any difference between them in applications.

S_V is absolutely right here; in gaming there is some performance advantages for the Ti version for running GPU accelerated Applications; there won't be any difference between the Ti and the Non TI version of GTX 560.

i using Blender, its works very well in my config some draw back is not able to render faster (new cycles rendering engine), not able to work on high poly models/ not able to add more modifiers, other than that its works very well.

and also i record blender tutorials for my blog, without GPU its difficult to use blender and record high poly model tutorials.

iam not a gamer, GPU need mostly for application and also play games some times.

but i feel 560ti is better. what is the price of gtx 560ti price before 2 to 3 months.
