Hows Palit 512MB 9600GT TC1GB COMPARED TO THE ORIGINAL 9600GT

[teja92]

Hi guys,
I just bought a 9600 GT from a vendor. It says 9600GT Smart TC 1 GB 512 Mb / 128-bit / DDR3
Whats the difference between it and a normal 9600 Gt??
It doesn't even require a Power connector. I didn't plug it into the system. i just wanna know the real difference.

I wanna know how good it is.
Here is the page from PALIT website:

PLEASE REPLY GUYS.

128bit? looks crippled.

 

[teja92]

Its a 9600 GSO 512MB with no power connector.

 

[invisik]

Does it have bus width 128bit? Download gpuz and check.

 

[teja92]

ya
It is 128 Bit and only 28.8 GB/s as per GPU z but it plays Crysis at 1440x900
at medium ( high water clarity) - 33 fps on avg
at high - 23 fps on avg
very much impressive and not even a single power connector. A bit better than a HD 4670 for the same price

I bought it for Rs. 4900 . 1GB HD 4670 was also for same price but i feel much better having a nvidia card.

Hi Teja , ,thanxx for ur prompt reply
yeah , i suggest as same u do , i bought this card in chennai for 4800 ,/- ( not much differ)
well ,how much will be the palit 9600 gt 512mb / 256-bit /GDDR3 which requires extra power connector hope the price will be little expensive than this ?

Do u have any idea about OC i mean over locking , does our card supports that , if u know how to oc , can u pls show me how to do that ,

THANXX DUDE,,,,,!

In most of the Ubisoft games: OC. to 720/963 - 100% stable
In all other games 738/999 - 100% stable

While in some games i even OC to 747 /1017.
This card is a massive overclocker dude.
I bought it at Hyderabad( i live here)
Great card for my 1440x900 resolution.
Whats your max or native resolution dude????

 

[balajisinghh]

Yeah ! Thanxx
i am near by chennai , my resolutions is same as u dude 19' inches wide !
do we have any tools or 3rd party software's to OC the card ?

 

[teja92]

I have downloaded EVGA Precision tool. Its great. Google it dude.Or you can download nvidia ntune from site and apply your own settings.

 

[balajisinghh]

yo ! , that's cool , i am gonna give a try on it ,

thanxx !

 

[balajisinghh]

do we need any extra power 500 or 550 w while overclocking the card
& require any special mother boards ?
i have just got basic Intel D945GCNL with dual core E2180 2.0 ghz 1. gb ram with 400 w , is that enough to overclocking this card ?

 

[teja92]

No need dude
I only have a 350W dell PSU and a G33 MOBO With Q6600 and 4Gb ram
No need of anything more
Just OC with SOftware
And also i recommend you to upgrade to E5200+ 2GB more ram

 

[balajisinghh]

oh no ! , i cant upgrade to E5200 as i am out of budget now take some time , i can only upgrade my ram to 2 Gb my mobo supports only 2.gb , any thing wrong with my E2180 , over clocking the gfx card , may affect processor ?

one more thing , hope ur familiar with PCSX2 , a ps2 emulator
i cant plat tekken 5 game in it , even though i had enough strong GFX 9600 GSO card
i have E2180 & 1 .gb ram

i can see the tekken 5 intro & then goes blank can only hear the sound very slow

do u have any problem with PCXS2 emulator , or my cpu is not strong for this ps2 Emulators ?

Dude as much as i know i think your E2180 is a huge bottleneck to the card.OC it to atleast 2.4-2.5GHz and then about tekken 5.I think it has problems withpcsx2.Try tekken 4.It works.

 

[balajisinghh]

yeah dude , i think my processor is not enough strong to bear card ,

i am gonna OC the Processor as u said ,

thanxx for the tekken hint

 

[balajisinghh]

hey dude, have u ever overclocked ur processor ? , can u ps tell me the conditions to overclock the e2180 processor , am i able to oc the processor with intel D945DCNL Mobo , i am not sure , help needed

thanxx

You may post on how to oC and OC your processor from bios.]

Both needed.

wanna help but sorry dude

 

[balajisinghh]

thanxx for the prompt support dude , i am decided to kick out my processor & board , gonna buy some other

 

[renz496]

new line of intel processor will be out soon so C2D class processor may drop in price.thats it if u plan to stick with intel

 

[kakarott3]

not bad at all guys!i OC'ed the same card to 825/2100mhz and it ran pretty stable at about 55C. any 1 go higher? it would be cool to know.

 

[teja92]

Is it stable dude???
