Used 5770s and some new 5770s after rebate costs around $125.

Otherwise your best bet is to get a new 5750, a used GTX260 or used 4870 or used 4890.

Try your best to get a deal on the 5770, they are a great card if you can find them for $125.

It's also nice to have new as you don't know what someone has done to the card in the past. Eg. Overclock until overheat/artifacts.

125$ for a 5770 in India? I would say that would be hard to find new...

 

[Bluescreendeath]

Remove gtx 260 it is outdated and overpriced.

GTX260s and 4870s go for under $125.

If he can't find a 5770 for $125, then a GTX260 or 4870 is his best bet. They perform the same, and the only disadvantage is they lack dx11.

You can find HD5770 for around 8600 INR, i.e., something around $195. Mention your budget in INR so that we can help.

Edit: I see that you have mentioned your budget. Around 7000 INR, you would find the
HD5750, GTS250, GTX260, HD4870. But again, HD4870 would be hard to find.

While the HD 5750 and, if you are lucky, the HD 5770 can be onsale with a mail-in rebate in the US (Newegg.com), I am pretty sure the prices in India are pretty different.

vada, there must be some type of search engine you can use (like Google) to find video card prices in India.

About 115w IIRC.

i am currently sce=rewd up with a 125w psu nd m running core 2 duo nd 1.5gbs of ram will sonn upgrade to 4gb and does it really matter that the psu must spply no higher than what the MOBO needs ?

 

[Mousemonkey]

You can put any PSU you like in your rig, 1200w if you want.

Unless the case is meant for smaller psu's, which this one looks like.
The real small ones are max of what, 400-50w?

I own several hacksaws, trust me I could make it fit. :lol:

 

[deweycd]

can always screw the psu to the top or side of the case and drill a hole for the wires.

Guys -- Remember he said "i can get stuff from the states so it dosent matter where i got to get the card from" -- so he has friends in the states that can get the card for him so US websites are fine !! -- thus a 5770 like this HIS for $119 after $20 MIR is within the budget !

Also If you have an empty drive bay then for another $20 you could add this -- 450W Secondary PSU and have plenty of power for any video card ! (not the best quality unit but should be fine for a 5770 !!)

The ATI 5770 and GTX 260 perform about the same. Sure the 5770 has "DX11", but I can't picture calling the GTX 260 "outdated" while pushing an ATI 5770 at the same time. Performance level is basically the same.

And honestly, I wouldn't buy an ATI 5770 just for the DX11 difference, unless you're playing at a low resolution.

?! The GTX 260 is much better than a 9800GT by the way...

ok nw i realised my mistake the gts 450 is a good card and evga gts 450 fpb is awesum and only 129 in amazon and what is a good playable frame rate nd is 25 fps good (by goos i mean not a SLIDE SHOW or a FAST SLIDESHOW)?

 

[vada]

and what is the EVGA gts 450 overclocking potential and the fansize in gts 450 ssc and gts 450 seem to be the same so can i super clock it? without risk of frying it????

 

[vada]

and what is the required power for the gts 450 fpb?

@vada, either compose your thoughts and just make one post or use the "Quick edit" function please, as what you are doing is bumping your thread which may result in me closing it.

24fps is the movie standard(at least I think it still is)
So you'll be getting around 25-40fps in most games.
