I jus purchased from Prime ABGB:
Sapphier HD5670 1Gb DDR5 -> Rs. 4800
Corsair 430W -> Rs. 2150

I am about to install the graphic card.... need some guidance:

1. Any specific setting needs to be done while installing the card?
2. any BIOS setting required?
3. any care to be taken for power input to the GPU (so as it sould not burn or damage)?
4. anything else??

I asked the price of 5670 ddr3 version i was getting it for 3600....ddr5 will be costly. I too bought the same PSU in 2100.

i bought the 6570 1GB Ddr5 for 4000rs In delhi.


And no need of extra setting just plug and play;-)

I had a hard time installing PSU. beter if yu check the manual....

Nothing extra..I just stuck on the cable thing...it has a cable that has 8 Pins that you need to connect to the motherboard near Processor fan...

Some MoBo has four pin slots and some have 8 pins...so i dnt knw that thes 8 pins can be seperated in 2 groups of gour pins...thats what took the time ..then i read the manual and did so...:)

@OP, you dont need to use those pin/cables :-D .. just wrap the unused cables and tie them with plastic thread and throw the cables in a unused bay :))
