Gaurav get 9600Gt even if its Palit. Its twice as fast as 8600GT and the difference is not much. You will come to thank the decision for all the coming years.
8600Gt is in its last days whereas 9600Gt will keep you in game for another 2 years atleast.
2 Years is a big statement considering the volatile GPU market scenario.

Look its not 9600GT its 9600GSO, and palit is relaible.

ohh...gaurav bhai ... bahut dino baad darshan diye ... kaha laapata ho gaya tha yaar ... Metro Station ka model banane ke baad to dikha hi nahi .... ab permanent waapsi hai ya fir gaayab hona hai ??

And about Graphic card .... in ur budget (i.e. 3750.50 paisa:D) u should look for HD3650 512 MB, and i think u r not a gamer and need the card for Rendering ... so more the memory ..the better it will be ... so if u can expand ur budget then go for 9500GT 512/1GB (for around 3.7-4.6k) And Palit is really a reliable brand ...

8800 GT 512 is around 9k .. so u wil be better of with Palit 9800 GT for 8.2k as 9800 GT is nuthing else but a rebadged 8800 GT (with the added support for Tri SLI) and still cheaper (dnt know wat was nvidia ppl thinking when setting the price ) .

but wats exactly ur budget yaar ?? tabhi to kuch bata paaenge na ..

Whats the price of 9600 GT and is it nvidia's or palit's?
Aur woh extra 50 paise jo best card recommend karega usko milenge.:D

9600 GT aapko 6k ke under mil jaayega.

Nvidia kaa chipset hogaa usme aur palit manufacturer hai uska. Isi tarah agar aapko koi aur company(Asus, MSI,etc) kaa graphic card milta ho to woh bhi chalega. Main baat hai woh 9600 GT hona chahiye. Agar company palit hai to saste mein mil jaayega. Asus aur wo sab thode mahange hoge.

Agar aap 6k tak jaa sakte ho to 9600 GT hi lo.

First Of all ...
Nvidia and ATI makes the Graphic Chips ( not the complete graphic card) ... adn Manufacturers like Palit, MSI, ASUS take the chip and manufacture the complete card ( just like Intel-Nvidia make chipsets for motherboard and Companies like MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte manufacture the motherboard based on those chipsets.)

Secondly, 9600 GT is from Nvidia and its not an option for you as its minimum price is 6500 i.e. 500 more than ur budget.

So, For 6k ... ur best bet wld be Palit 4670 Super.

You can try for a 9600 GT at SMC international,Nehru Place.They sell MSI 9600 GT for 5.5K if I remember correctly.Otherwise get a 8600 GT but It's not worth the money spent on it now.So budget extend karo aur 9600 GT lelo.

9600 GT for 6k or 6.5k?

Palit 4670 super is a raedon card?Yaar drivers ka bahut panga hota hai inmein 3d applications ke saath.

MSI 9600GT is for 5.5K lallanraam!And buy only nVidia card.Avoid AMD.
harryneopotter
Nov 20, 2008 at 10:57 PM
Radeon me Drivers ka panga pehle hota tha .... but ab naye catalyst drivers me nahi hota ...
Every other 3d designer i know has either HD 4850 or 4870 from ATI. U dont worry about any compatibilty issues.
And if u still have doubts, fir to bhai main yehi kahunga ki thode se paise aur bacha ke 9600 gt hi le lo kaise bhi ....

MSI!I have been using MSI 8800 GTSx2 for quite a while now and must say they perform really well.
Get MSI 9600 GT.You can do your 3D work and also play the latest games without having to care about sys requirements and all.
4850 and all is way outta your budget.So is 8800GT.

ab MSI ya PALIT me se jo sasta mil jaaye aur jiske accessories zyada ho ... wo dekh ke decide kar lena ...
waise Palit ke cards heat kam karte hai baakiyo ke comparison me. Dono dekh lena with price and overall package ... jo zyada VFM lage ... wo hi utha lena...simple. Performance dono ki same hogi.....

With your budget, you can get 9500GT. Its better than the 8600GT, 8600GTX and HD3650. XpertVision 9500GT 512MB costs Rs. 3,300 at Lynx-India.com.

XpertVision 9500GT would be cheaper, faster and also consumes lesser power.
Delhi mein bangalore jaise power cuts nahi hothe hai kya ?

Sorry guys I can't understand Hindi. If you are going to game at more than 1280/1024 you must get at least 9600gt. If at 1280/1024 9600gt will be very good. I bought palit 9600gt last month in chennai for 6650. It's WAY better than my older 8600gt 236 ddr3.
