I read that somewhere that HD 7750 is faster than HD 6670 and consumes even less power. Is that true?
I ordered a Saphhire Hd 6670 1Gb DDR5 from Flipkart and it was a defected piece so i sent mailed them and they asked for refund as replacement was not possible and the card went out of stock with them. (My previous post)
So now the problem is that the refund money is in my account wallet (online) but not as cash. I can only use that money for anything purchased from 'WS Retail' seller on flipkart. Now the same card is not available with them and i cannot go anywhere else either to get that. The only choice left with me is to increase my budget and get a HD 7750.
Now i want to ask you if HD 7750 will work if the previous card worked well? (without an upgrade to my PSU?) 'coz if i go for an upgraded GPU, I won't be able to purchase new PSU. Min System requirements of HD 7750 shows 450W whereas 6670 required just 450W.
I have HYTECH HT 450W-P4 PSU.

Or can you please get me a better deal than this from WS Retail? :cry:

Yeh, it will work fine. It requires less power than HD 6670.

7750 indeed consume lesser power than 6670 but your current psu is crap.start saving money & at least buy a corsair VS-450 for ~2200-2300 as soon as possible & in the meantime don't overclock/exert your processor much(especially if its quad core) while gaming.

Go for HD 7750. Performs much better than HD 6670 and also consumes less power.
It would have been better if you could have asked them for refund coz snapdeal has better pricing than flipkart for many items.

hey should i buy again a 450W as an upgrade? should i not save for a 500W psu or more? or will that suffice as being of good quality?

Even a branded 350W PSU like Antec VP-350 would be fine for your rig with HD 7750. The earlier you get a new one the better it is for you.

Okay thanks buddy :) i will surely go for it as soon as i can. but as for now, will my psu be able to handle my card without effecting it?

And @all is this a good deal to go for? MSI R7750-PMD1GD5/OC AMD or any other good deal available at any other store?

I think you would be fine with your psu as HD 7750 hardly consumes 45 W and total system consumption might be less than 150W from wall. If it's true your ordinary psu will easily last you for 1 year with some adverse effects.

btw, What's you computer config ?

Last question (still so confused) Seasonic has 430W Power and good quality but the Antec one is 450W but a bit of low quality. Now Which to prefer for my system Power or quality? If someday i go for my board and processor upgrade then which would be reliable for me (then same PSU should work for me)

*www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Antec-VP450-Power-Supply-Review/1487/9

Although Antec can resist upto 550W but efficiency nosedives..
Seasonic one provides upto 500W @ 82.7% efficiency which is great bt I would recommend never to overload PSU

yes those are short time tests only but things can change with prolonged use and if @ Op - you do upgrde in the future the PSU will be good though it depends on the componenets you are going to upgrade and if you want to play safe get a Seasonic SS-600BT Eco around 3.8k.

LOL your processor will bottleneck the card a big time. I have the same processor and same card and the performance of HD 7750 when paired with Intel e2140 is almost same as a 9500gt(Which I had earlier) paired with Intel e2140.

I'm upgrading my processor to FX 6300 in this week or the next week. But seriously if you're not considering to upgrade your processor anytime soon, then I would not suggest you to get HD 7750..because it will be bottle necked a big time. I earlier had a 9500gt and when I upgraded to HD 7750 the fps difference was about 5-6 fps barely on any game over 9500gt.

"I upgraded to HD 7750 from 9500gt and difference in performance was very less. HD 7750 performed about 5-6 fps (at most) more at every game. Which was certainly "very" less according to my expectation.

I got your point but I've seen people getting better performance [ beyond 5-6 fps ] when they upgraded from 9500GT to HD5750/5770 like cards with a e2140 cpu but I do agree with you that performance will be bottlenecked by the low cpu speed unless Oced.

Hmm I was getting about 20 fps at fifa 12 with 9500gt card when I played it with HD 7750 fps was like 25-27 at medium settings 720p.
Gta 4 was about same was getting 17fps with medium on 9500gt (0 shadows/vsync off) got 19fps-20(Nothing more than that) with HD 7750 same settings. MY CPU was never OC'd was at stock 1.6.

I am on GT 9400 + Q8300 [Intel core to qaud] so if I upgrade to 7770 will it bottleneck my CPU ?
And GTA4 runs ok on medium setting with GT9400 on my sigi

no, actually it will unleash the power of your cpu more ;) HD7770 is a big upgrade compared to 9400GT so if you are planning to get one just get one without much hesitation but if you worried about the PSu of yours get a new good one or get HD7750 which also performs very well compared to 9400GT.

It's not just about Wattage, its about consistent power delivery which these local PSU's fail at. You should invest in a better PSU to avoid damage to your PC.

HD 7770 is about 10-15% percent faster than a HD 7750? Correct me If'm wrong.
But you'll definitely need to change your PSU if you are getting HD 7770. But for HD 7750 even a local PSU can handle it but it's much better to use it with a better PSU(Like Corsair, Antec, Seasonic etc.)

General RULE OF THE THUMB...the more current AMP rating your single(or dual or multiple) 12V rail of the PSU has,it's more stable & robust & caring & COSTLY also.
Of course look out for the specs. in details and search the net for other users reviews,also be warned not to have false ratings on the PSU label from unknown manufacturers.

7750 doesnt require any aditional power and can run with the power supplied by the PCI-e slot so no there is no reason for you to upgrade your PSU :)

Although its recommended as its a cheap one.

theoretically the psu should be able to handle HD7750 but as it's an old psu do keep in mind that average wear and tear [ component degradation over time ] makes psus less capable compared to a fresh unit .. someone I know ran into trouble when he added a new HD7850 to his system [ the psu was vx550 - 5 years old ]. The psu ran fine with 6800GS but HD7850 was not possible even though both have only around ~30-40W difference.

My 250W PSU is handling HD 7750OC Gigabyte pretty well since 11 months. It's a stock PSU given by HCL. So I dun think there is a need for buying a new PSU. It runs on very low power I guess almost same as 9500gt(Mine old one)

theoretically the psu should be able to handle HD7750 but as it's an old psu do keep in mind that average wear and tear [ component degradation over time ] makes psus less capable compared to a fresh unit .. someone I know ran into trouble when he added a new HD7850 to his system [ the psu was vx550 - 5 years old ]. The psu ran fine with 6800GS but HD7850 was not possible even though both have only around ~30-40W difference.
This is it. The perfect clarification.

@RohanM,buddy it's your money,your choice.
But again study topgear's advice,and buy a good PSU from CORSAIR or Seasonic or Antech or Gigabyte .... with a wattage of 450W~500W and it will be FUTURE PROOF as ever.
You won't repent Friend.

Your call.

^ Finally what I wanted to know & found it on flipkart review..

" SPEECHLESS !!!!
Got this card at my doorsteps in just under 50 hrs. That must some kind of a record . The packaging was like something that can be send to a war zone but still the product in the box will remain unharmed.

The graphics card is great the best you can buy in this budget . On top of that I got 650 Rs Cashback . This card costed only 7414 Rs . This card can run on cheap or local 500 W PSU . Mine running on 500W INTEX PSU that came with the cabinet .
."

So ordering now... :)

did the reviewer also mention his entire pc config like which cpu and how many hdd, fans he is using with that psu, how old is his psu and you will find at-least 2-3 different intex 450/500w psu witg different amp ratings :D anyway, congratulations on your purchase.

I can assure you it will run with ease. Like I said earlier I've used HD 7750 with Intel e2140 with a 250W PSU came with HCL for nearly a year it didn't gave me any problems whatsoever. This card require very less power I mean it's Power consumption is almost same as 9500gt if not less.

Well what are the prices of a HD 7750 nowdays? I bought it on Octuber last year for about 6700(Gigabyte Overclocked edition.)

antec vp450p is much better. Dont go for cm thunder series or corsair vs series. atleast get antec vp450p by increasing your budget a little.it is worth and dont forget, psu is the heart of a system. If it is not good, none of the components function well.

Well I have a HD 7750 paired with an i5 3470. It's pretty good considering how cheap it is.
My pc ran GTA 4 at you say ultra at 720p resolution with average 63 fps~(Benchmark) Haven;t played it much hardly one mission.
BF3 was about 50-55fps MAX at 720p (Ultra) but on some maps where it was crowded and **** fps would go down to 30-35.
Hitman absolution was about 23-25 and 30 at max at ultra settings 720p. (But sometimes it could go as low as 17-20)
Sleeping dogs was 55fps~avg at high and 30-35 at extreme.
Fifa 13 60fps mostly.

It's performance is considerably very good by looking at it's price. But mine is factory overclocked version. It's clocked 80mhz more than the sapphire's version you;'ve ordered. So there will be about 2-3 percent diff I'd say? dunno tho.

I have not installed the card yet. But gta 4 I have completed twice on my gt 9400 ones with pentium 4 and later with quad. Some settings to to medium and other to low.
So with 7750 it should run good. :)

Told ya already HD 7750 can max out GTA 4 with 720p(Not fully I mean shadows etc it requires more than 1gb). Sadly my antivirus deleted on of my GTA 4 files which didn't know so I couldn't play it again :(
The only game I found it struggled maxing out in 720p is Hitman Absolution(Although it was still pretty much playble :p)

7770 is 2k more than 7750 and 2.5 or 3k for new psu means 5k extra budget.... So 7750 was a best deal. :)
