Revival of the Dead (P4 System)

[CyberKID]

What if I go with the Nvidia 8800GTX or 9800GTX? Though both are pretty old models and DX10 also, but, still, are pretty high in the TOM's Graphics Card Hierarchy, ratings wise somewhere equal to Radeon HD 4770 and HD 6750, 7750 resp.

I don't want to start another thread as I have a similar query, hope the OP doesn't mind..

I have a Core 2 Duo E4400 CPU, will it support DDR3 if I use a DDR3 motherboard?

^I guess yes. (not sure though)

 

[Chaitanya]

Obviously yes..

Yes. But I can understand the use of motherboard upgradation.

Not at all.

Yes. Mine is a P4 and supports DDR3 well, so your's should too. AFAIK it's the mobo that should support, proccys don't have any role in that.

Yes, why not. Just look for this board: *www.flipkart.com/gigabyte-ga-g41m-combo-motherboard/p/itmd69wpepyuwhgb
supports both DDR2 n DDR3.

Never. 9800GT performs around that of HD 6670 or HD 6750. Also its a very power hungry card. Better get HD 7750 instead. Perfromance around that of HD 6770 and really low power consumption.

^ But I'm getting new 8800 GTX and 9800 GTX cards for 3K and 4.2K resp, while for an HD6670, I'll have to spend atleast 5.3K, while for HD 7750, I'll have to shell out in excess to 8K.
