5750 vs gt 250

[nikhilnim]

guys can u tell me which is more efficient i am quite confused can any one tell me is sapphire and msi companies really good ?
thanks in advance
do we really require direct x 11 support

The 5750 is a clear winner here....Both companies are good....u should decide on the pricing and warranty they give with your purchase....

 

[mindless728]

if you can find an XFX branded 5750, there warranty is unbeatable (double lifetime)

 

[ridic23]

i just want to know what "double lifetime" means.....

 

[OvrClkr]

Means if you decide to give/sell your card in the future, the warranty will remain the same. I sold an XFX card to a friend about a year ago and it is still under warranty.

 

[nikhilnim]

ohh thanks guys i more Q. my friend want to know which is good card bettween this two 9800 gt or hd 4830
thanks guys

 

[OvrClkr]

Theres not much of a difference between both, I would save up 15-20$ more and get the 4850. Best bang for buck....

 

[nikhilnim]

hey i moe Q. if i overclock 5750 with 450 watts power supply will it damage my card or the brand affects the oc of cards ????
thanks

 

[OvrClkr]

You should be fine, what brand/mosel PSU do you have?

 

[nikhilnim]

i have iball psu 450watts
if card get affected in oc mode do we can claim warranty on them

 

[nikhilnim]

but i have seen one thing is that 5750 is 128 bits ands gts 250 is 256 bit which will be good between them?

 

[OvrClkr]

the 5750 is almost on par with the GTS 250...

[nikhilnim]

but can any one tell me whats the diff between 128bit cand and 256bits which is better as i have seen gt250 is 256 bit and 5750 is 128 bits

 

[OvrClkr]

yes the 250 has a 256bit memory interface but that does not mean the 128bit 5750 is weaker, the 5750's architechure is more advanced, the card produces less heat, consumes less power, it's DX11 and eye-finity ready... And last but not least, much more future-proof.

 

[OvrClkr]

If we were comparing a 128bit 4770 vs. a 256bit 4850 then of course the 4850 would be a faster card, but the 5xxx series is a whole nother ballgame.

 

[nikhilnim]

ok guys then give me last suggestion which card is should buy gt250 or a hd5750
thanks

the GTS250 beats the HD 5750 but you should go for the HD 5770 instead since its just a few bucks more expensive than the 5750 and way better. Still the GTS250 is the smartest deal though. Its way more powerfull than any 7 series ATI card.

 

[nikhilnim]

ohh ok my mboard dnt support cf nor i gonna connect two monitors so should i go with gt 250 hmm but 5750 is a new tech ................

7 series?

 

[nikhilnim]

7 series ?

 

[dndhatcher]

He means ATI X7XX, but that is innacurate since the 5770 kicks the snot out of a 250.

 

[cygone]

Saphire and MSI are companies, tho not the best of the brands.

XFX are ok (good warranty period - but ppl have issues claiming warranty)

ASUS are the best!
Gygabyte are also really good.
EVGA/MSI/SAPHIRE/XFX are only slightly below.

 

[cygone]

Just because they clock thiers higher, dont mean that makes them the best

 

[OvrClkr]

Has nothing to do with clocks, its the reliability, warranty and track record that makes them the best...

Hm thats very good thread. I am wondering between asus 5750 Formula 1gb or asus gts250 1gb. I have a 400W supply and intel G33 motherboard. Which card would be better for my supply ? thanks
