Bird Bird Bird Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) ^^ Thanks. What about a new card ? He aint much of a gfx wh*re, and I doubt he is gonna go for a 2nd hand one. :| Edited August 14, 2010 by F@tm@n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 i am not sure if they reduced the prices of 260, he can also look at 4870 its price must have come down, though we will need to check the latest prices. Â But if he is not gonna be playing too many heavy duty games tell him to go for MSI 5770 for around 9k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Bird Bird Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 GTX 260 has CUDA + Physx right ? And what about 4850 ? .. That also fits in his budget.. Also any specific brands to look for ? Sorry for troubling with so many questions.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 yes 260 has CUDA and PhysX, but i am not sure if the prices have come down. Â 4850 will fit his budget but 5770 is way better...plus DX11 Â In india for Nvidia cards MSI is best, EVGA is very hard to find and expensive. Â For AMD go for Sapphire followed by MSI 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 Yeah tell him to spring for the 260. It might be an extra 1-2k but its totally worth it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtheK Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 wow that is one cookie, i would never be able to eat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 PSU is not an issue, as for the heat yes 465 does heat up more, so wats the price you are getting them both for, so that we can decide if the price difference is worth it or not.

AtheK Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 oh also, the overclocked 1 GB version of 460 actually is able to defeat the 465 in lot of games, so i guess 460 overclocked version should be the way to go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 460 OC version, MSI cyclone version (Read really good reviews about it) is the way to go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) price isn't an issue if the performance difference is worth the extra cost of the 465 Â No it is not. Not IMO anyway. The 460 is what the 465 should have been in the first place. Edited August 14, 2010 by Aftrunner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devil_angel Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 you guys are such rich folk.....BTW sam how on earth are u getting such an insane discount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulovski Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Saaaaaaaaaaaaaam help another bro out with the discount on the Zotac please. I read up a lot about the Zotac 460 yesterday. It's definitely better buy than the 465. Plus get the 1gb version, because the 768 version has been nerfed a bit more than just ram size. Â http://www.smcinternational.in/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=453&category_id=34&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=93 Â MSI GTX 460 Cyclone for 13625 if you're interested.

Bulovski Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 How's the AMD Phenom II X6 1055T? It's 10.5k. What mobos go with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 47 Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 (edited) For Geforce GTX 460 which company is good.. EVGA, Palit, Point of view, Zotac or MSI... Â (Zotac i checked some review they are saying it makes lot of noise, is it true ?) Â and should i buy the normal edition or the superclocked edition. Â And for CPU cooling should i buy CM Hyper N620 or Corsair CWCH50 water cooling...(i'll be buying a core i5 750 and overclocking it) Â And for PC case what do you guyz suggest CM Haf 922 or NZXT tempest evo Edited August 15, 2010 by Agent 47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted August 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 EVGA is the best of the list... buy superclocked edition 1 GB, forget water cooling...too much maintenance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
