Not sure what cards are available for you at that price. Give us a list to pick from. It might be the best approach.

I suppose ur from INdia.....For 8000rs u can get a 9800gtx+ and it will be good enough for playin at that res....if u can extend ur budget to rs.10500 u can get GTX 260.....my frnd recently bought it at that price....Forget ATI since nvidia is the only dominant player in india....if u r to buy one it will cost u a premium.....

i have check out that 5750 is 8000 rs and gt 250 but gt 260 goes too high

 

[ridic23]

i doubt it will be available at that price.....The 5750 is yet to be launched in india and the last i checked is that the 4850 1gb retails for 12500 and 512mb for 9000....so ur best bet now for 8k will be 9800gt which retails at 7.5k...The 9800gtx goes upto 10k....I suggest u spend some more to get a good high end entry level card.....

but it seem to launched i check out sm site http://www.lynx-india.com/
can u suggest me a comparable card between ati and nvidia ranging same in performance

 

[ridic23]

I checked the site and they have the ati 5 series....if u can buy them then go for it....The 5750 and 5770 are good cards and pack more features for a less price than nvidia.....i feel u will be more satisfied by getting a 5770 which is nearly identical in performance to the 260 and also adds some very good features that are absent in the 260.....the 5750 is also good but not as good as 5770....

yeah but i doubt that only sapphier is the only company that available is that good i have seen than xfx gives double life time warrant better to go withy xfx


but guys tell me whats diff between 128bit and 256 bit

 

[ridic23]

If u want XFX and other manufacturers then u have to wait longer and i doubt they will charge handsomely for it too....

128 bit and 256 bit in a GPU are its memory width....a gpu or any processing unit processes data in chunks....the above terms represent the maximum size of the data the GPU can handle...For example, u have a texture of size 1MB and the GPU breaks this into its max memory width to process it.....the bigger the memory width the more speed u will get in getting high quality images....The fastest cards will have max width of 256bit and a considerably high memory clock....multiply both u get the memory bandwidth of the card which is a defining factor in measuring the card's performance.....

 

[nikhilnim]

ok guys then tell me which card i should go for hd 5750 or gt250
thanks

 

[ridic23]

Both cards should perform nearly equally but the availability of Dx11 in 5750 puts it as a winner....eventhough the 5750 is a 128 bit card it balances it with a number of features and clock speeds...

Between a 5750 and gts250? The 5750 performs slightly better than a 250. It also has DX11 support, DVI,HDMI, Display port outputs, and uses less power.
