here are the prices i got in hyderabad ctc mall.

2600 PRO 512 MB= 2950/-
2600 XT 256MB = 5100/-
3650 512 MB DDR2 = 3500/-
3850 512MB DDR3= 5900/-

Mercury 8600 GT 256MB RAM DDR3 =2400/-
XFX 8600 GT 256MB RAM DDR3 =4450/-
8600GT 512 MB DDR2 = 3400/-

1GB DDR1 transcend ram(tetra pack)= 1500/-

the hyderabad market sucks.when i asked for the 8600gt ddr3 version everyone had only mercury card.no one had palit,msi,gigabyte,asus etc.
the whole market only had mercury card.

so which one you people suggest.
how is mercury card.i can buy both ram and the mercury card in 3900/-.but not sure about it's quality.

LOL, dont you think 3850 512 MB DDR3 is a steal at that price,

GO buy it quick without even thinking for anything else.
You would not get 512 MB DDR3 of any nVidia or Ati in that price. It would be a bonnanza offer or something if they are giving it at that price. Which company is that made of the 3850 model

yup, 3850 is real steal. It a good card and performs close to 9600GT, and consumes less power, and also a hell of an overclocker..after oc, it can even outperform 3870!

I am not saying its not a good card, but what I am saying if you are getting a sub 6K 512 MB DDR3 card then why would you go for any card which is costlier. What is the actual price and company of the card mentioned above. the Ati 3850

 

[desiibond]

unbelievable. 3850 for 6k????

and is it DDR3 card or GDDR3 card?
