Looking for best suited graphics card.

[krishna2602]

which graphics card will be suited for my intel c2d e7400, 2.80 ghz, processor n motherboard intel dg31pr, wid 2gb DDR2 RAM

<mod edit: correct obvious typo's for readability>

Get more ram first. that is a pretty good Core two duo, and it should have a least 4 GB in order to run near its max potential. I was running a R7 250X for a while and it worked just fine, this was with a e6600 processor at 2.4 (so yours only slower) this card is only about $75 and is the lowest I would get. It may help to buy a riser with it as it may not fit normally.

 

[krishna2602]

Actually, R7 250x is far qway frm my Budget...
Hw is gt620 or gt610..???
How much ram should I add..??

 

[krishna2602]

N 1 more thing my smps says power supply of 500w, is dat enough or I have to change dat too..??

 

[mrhippo900]

GT 730.

 

[Robert Cook]

ok yeah a Gt 730 or 740 would be fine, they are both around $50 a 500 watt power supply is more than fine. I would recommend at least 4 GB of DDR2 having had used two three four and six GB of ram with a similar CPU, you get the best performance per price at 4 GB

 

[Robert Cook]

for the ram I mean have a total of 4 GB or higher not get 4 GB or more.

 

[krishna2602]

N 1 more thing my smps says power supply of 500w, is dat enough or I have to change dat too..?? N which things should i consider before buying extra RAM...??

 

[Robert Cook]

any RAM will do such as this, and 500 watts is plenty. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820146054

Can I mix DDR2 Ram with DDR3 RAM...??
My previous ram is DDR2

 

[krishna2602]

Can I mix DDR2 Ram with DDR3 RAM...??
My previous ram is DDR2

 

[krishna2602]

Can I mix DDR2 Ram with DDR3 RAM...??
My previous ram is DDR2

 

[Robert Cook]

no, you can not, you will have to get DDR2, DDR3 will not fit in to your board nor will it be supported.

 

[krishna2602]

Hws dis 1,
GALAXy GeForce GT730 PCI-E 2GB DDR3 128Bit w/VGA/DVI-I/HDMI, will it be supported to my system...??
Chk its specs here,
http://www.amazon.in/GALAX-GeForce-GT730-PCI-E-128Bit/dp/B00N6QGYT6/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1429882369&sr=8-4&keywords=gt730
Is dis cimpatible wid my system..??

 

[Robert Cook]

Yes, it is fine.

 

[krishna2602]

Hy Thanks alot Robert...

 

[krishna2602]

Hy which RAM i should buy 800 mhz clk spped or 1300 mhz clk speed, my existing RAM is 800mhz..

 

[Robert Cook]

your mother board will mostly not support 1300 just get 800

 

[krishna2602]

Kkkk

 

[krishna2602]

GT 730 128 bit 96 cores, clock of 700MHz, and 2GB of 128-bit DDR3 RAM clocked at 1.8Gbps.
Or
Gt730 64 bit 384 cores and clock of 902MHz and 2 gb of 64 bit DDR3 RAM

Which 1 should i select 64 bit or 128 bit version...???

 

[krishna2602]

N 1 more thing will my motherboard support DDR5 ...??

 

[Robert Cook]

Ok, the 384 Cuda core one is much better despite having worse memory. there is no such thing as DDR5, but there is GDDR5, which is for graphics cards only. as a result, any motherboard should support a graphics card with GDDR5, DDR3, DDR2, GDDR3, DDR.

 

[krishna2602]

Gt 730 GDDR5
CUDA Cores = 384, Base Clock (MHz) = 954, Memory Speed = 5Gbps, Memory Interface Width = 64-bit GDDR5, Memory Bandwidth (GB/sec) = 40, OpenGL = 4.4, Bus Support = PCI-E 2.0,

So should i order dis 1....???
