PlayStation 2 or a new Graphics Card..!!?

[koolent]

Hi there,

This is Kush Mishra and I am asking you for one thing..

I have a PC and a PS2..

The configuration of my PC is:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 2.8 GHz
RAM: 2GB DDR 2 Samsung
GPU: None
PSU: 220W (Stock)
Slot : PCI-E
Operating System : Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows XP (Dual- Boot)
CPU Cooler : Cooler Master

So, basically I want you to suggest whether I should buy a new Graphics card or continue with my PS2 ?

If I upgrade my PC, It will Take up to Rs. 11k and my PS2 will nt take much..

Bt seriously tell me..

You can only play really old games on the PS2. Of course there are a ton of fun games and many epic ones too. But the graphics in todays date is outdated. I would suggest you to demo it yourself at a Sony center or some showroom to see whether you will like it. However if the graphics are fine with you then I strongly suggest the PS2. It's something a gamer has to go through. The library is amazing and many can't be found on PC or even the xbox of the old.

I am not so sure about your PC. Wait for others to answer. I'm guessing your PC might have bottlenecks and not utilise a new gfx card completely.

my suggestion goes with a gfx card+PSu combo - a lots of old , new and upcoming games can be played on a pc with a good gpu - Op still has a decent rig which can be spiced up for games with a new GPU and many PS2 games can be played on PC using emulators - so there's no point in investing in some outdated old tech.

Get HD6790 @ 8.2k / HD6850 @ 9.2k and FSP Saga II 500W @ 2.2k /Corsair CX430 v2 @ 2.4k

All right ..

Well thnx,,

Well you have another option too. You can sell your PS2 , add the amount to 11k and get a new PS3.

If you want to go with topgear , then add 2 more Gigs of RAM.

or a xbox 360 4GB around 14k

For gaming, it is bad option IMIO. Graphics quality of PC games is of no match for the games of xbox360 or ps2/3.
My suggestion would be to get a new mid end graphics card like HD6790 or HD6850 along with a good PSU like Corsair CX430V2.

I think that OP's proccessor would be a bottleneck for 6850/6790. Better get 6670 GDDR5 model + corsair CX430. Also which monitor do you have koolent?

nah dude . 2000 for a FSP PSU and another 4000 for a 5670. You don't have to go for a high end gpu, even a gpu like 5670 will serve you fine(considering you are planning for a PS2). , and you will be able to play many more games than a PS2 will allow.
I am using a 4670 , and even play skyrim.
