What's Your Video Card?


Recommended Posts

Just bought a Inno3d GTX460 1Gig DDR5. Super sulit especially since my monitor can only go up to 1680x1050 resolution. I can play everything at max settings (though haven't tried Crysis yet). Although I really wanted an ATI 5850, but couldn't get it for less than the GTX 460 here... but if you have friends in the US, just have them buy ATI there.

The problem with playing with 3 monitors is the 3rd monitor should have a connector for displayport - which unfortunately is not available in the Philippines.

You can use a 'active displayport to vga connector' but it is very expensive (about USD100) and it is not available in the Philippines.

 

mahal nga..unlike sa green team.. dvi lang pwede na.. kaya lang dapat naka sli ka..460 sli is sweet.. dapat naman kasi pag multimonitor..dapat malakas talaga ang vga...

I was planning to buy MSI GeForce GTX 460 Fermi Cyclone OC 725MHZ 1024MB GDDR5 Dual DVI Mini-HDMI DX11 PCI-E Video Card

can someone help me please.

i am planning to set up a gaming computer that can play Crisis without the common problems of loss of performance. i understand that Crisis is a good benchmarking game to see if you gaming pc specs are adequate. Can someone pm me suggested specs for a gaming computer. I'm partial to Intel. i5 is ok right?

 

 

Paps, usually Crysis taxes very heavily on the GPU/Video Card, processor performance as long as its above an intel E4XXX series you would be fine. However on the GPU side of things, i would suggest that you get a GTX 460 768mb or an ATI 5830 at least especially if you're using a display that is 17" or bigger. Actually, pwede naman po ang GTS 250 or ATI 5770 pero for future proofing lang talaga mas okay un unang suggestion ko sa una since the new benchmark of 3D performance now is Metro 2033.

Outdated na yata ati hd3650 ko hehe..

What recommendations do you guys have for a compatible replacement?

change of processor is out of the question though, current is intel core2 quad 2.8 ghz,

System memory is 2gig ddr2

For nba 2k11, starcraft 2, mass effect 2

 

If you have a 19inch or smaller LCD monitor, a 256-bit nVidia GTS 250 will do the job nicely (try to find the green edition, not the e-green version). Stay away from the newer GTS 450...aside from being slower than a GTS 250, if you add a few bucks more, you can buy the much faster GTX 460 series (good for 20inch plus monitors).

Thanks for the swift response.

 

Yup, I just have a mere 19" LCD widescreen monitor, but I am not quite familiar with NviDia cards..

which ATI card does GTS 250 compare to? Same with the GTX 460 series..

 

GTX 460 series = HD 5800 series ??? :unsure:

IMO the ATI counterpart of the GTS 250 (a rebadged 9800GTX+) would be the HD4850. I'm not quite sure about the GTX 460 though, perhaps the GTX 470 is equivalent to the HD5800 series.

 

Since you have a 19" monitor, if you don't plan on upgrading this soon, I would stick to the cheaper GTS 250 or HD4850. Why buy something that is overkill in performance and price when you won't get the chance to use its full potential.
