a generic psu won't guarantee complete safety even with a low-power card like the 5670.

he should go for psu+gpu upgrade if he wants to be safe.

let's wait for his reply, however.

Sam, 6990 or 590 coupled with his proccy will be like elephant riding a bicycle.
Overload!!! :mrgreen:

well oops.

but joke or not OP needs to know this. let's see what posts back. :mrgreen:

it was indeed a joke. i really hate to reply to those peoples who just want the best without any budget. what do they think. we'll suggest to go for a grandma's time graphics card or any such thing. & when you give a suitable suggestion, they'll start arguing that a 2nd card (which they prefer) is better. and when the dust settles, you'll see they grabbed a old, overpriced card cause thats the one their (sweet) shopkeeper suggested to be the BEST.

thats why i stopped posting in the buying advice threads cause in the end most go for what their shopkeepers suggested & not the ones we told them to buy, wasting our valuable time.

^^ I second your view - on some other thread someone asked for a gfx card under 5k and when everybody made their suggestions the guy decided to buy a Xbox 360

@ OP - tell us about your BUDGET - or if you have unlimited budget wait and get either GTX590 or HD6990 with a Corsair Pro Gold Series 1200W PSU.

If u are having unlimited budget then get ASUS ARES :razz:

Asus ares is old hat now. At less than half the price, a 6990 & 6970cf can beat it black and blue. So will a 6950cf at even lower costs. Doesn't make any sense now.

@ Sonicbom

Which psu do you have? Mention your budget so we can suggest accordingly.

it's a 400w psu . And have iball nirantar ups something 600v. My budget is of 2k rupees only.

When I asked at a pc shop they say's ddr3 nd above type gpu will not work on my pc. Is it true ?

^^ Your dealer is bluffing. Your pc is compatible even with gddr5 vram.

Get a ZOTAC GT210 @ 2.2k. Best for the budget.

sam bro i really like your view. Specially that shopkeeper part

save more. GT210 is extremely entry level card. 3-3.5k may get him a gaming graphics card.

i would not waste any money on a card like a GT210...i would rather get a second hand deal...

^^agreed

so its better to accumulate some more money and get a good one ?

exactly

don't get anything lesser than HD5570 1GB DDR3 @ ~3.5k if you are on tight budget but still needs a gaming gfx card ;-)

Question: Does OP's HD 4350 support physx?? Or cuda??

@lordirecto
nope

NPhysx and CUDA are overhyped things imho.
And they are Nvidia exclusive, so don't expect them to be on ATI cards.

My system configuration as below

# Intel core 2 Duo 2.8 Ghz
# Gigabyte GA-G31M-SL2 1333
# Kingston 2 gb DDr2 800 Mhz
# Zebronics 500 W Platinum series with 1 PCI Exp. Connector
# Samsung LCD 19" Max Resolution 1440 x 900
# Leadtek winfast 9800 Gt 512 ddr 3

Want to know which Graphic Card in future I should upgrade for gaming ?

# Should i go with ATI if yes then provide me a good reason
# Should i go with nVIDIA again

want to play below games

# Crysis 2
# Fear 3
# fear 2
# Bioshock 2
# Bulletstorm
# Call of duty all games
# Far cry 2
# Far Cry
# Prince of Persia the forgotten sands

I want to play these games on max resolution of 1440 x 900 on Higher Setting.

Mine Budget is between 5K - 10K Max

9800GT is enough for that resolution but you can't max out. at mid, you should get 30FPS+ in all your listed games.

BTW budget?

Mine budget is between 5K to 10K Max

Get a HD6850 - under 10k it's the best bet for you ;-)

@every1
i suggest you guys to check the SMPS also will recommending a GPU.
also looks like the OP won't be replying!

so lets leave this thread alone!!!!

My suggestion would be the msi gtx 460 @ 10k If you want to go the nvidia way.

Otherwise as topgear mentioned, 6850 is a good card for the price.
