I saw Nvidia GT 430 which ave good specification and a Reasonable price...
It supports Direct X 11 and is a good card for games...
I want to know that Can it run CRYSIS on a high end?????
Please help....
i would say no comparing it to my 4870 my card runs it at high at 1920x1080 24-30 fps your card maybe dx11 but is way behind my 4870 in terms of gaming power.
Man then tell what's the price & the power consumtion of the HD 4870...
i was simply saying it wont run crysis on those settings and the op didnt ask for power consuming figures please read properly before judging my post thankyou.

He is the OP, he was asking if he could get a card like yours. OP you want something like a GTX460,GTX560Ti or HD 6870 or better from ATI. You would need a good 500w-550w power supply for any of these cards.

The GT 430 is a lite-weight gaming card at best. The following is the performance in Crysis Warhead with everything maxed out and is tested in a computer with an i7-975X Extreme Edition. Expect about a 5% - 15% decrease in performance if you are using a slower CPU. Only 1600 x 900 resolution has been benchmarked.
The GT 430 is too weak to really make use of DX11. The most talked about effect is Tessellation which is on-the-fly increase in the actual number of polygons to increase details. It is a processing power hog. Assuming Crysis Warhead was a DX11 title, then I would knock off about another 20% of performance if you were to play the with a GT 430 in DX11 mode.

Here's a chart of Crysis Warhead with more powerful (and more expensive) video cards with everything maxed out for a comparison to lower end video cards.
The Biggest bottleneck is your processor.even if you get gtx 460 it would be sickenly bottlenecked by your cpu because of a single core.you would have to upgrade your processor too.i would suggest any intel dual core of pentium 5x00 series.
instead of not good it is better to say that pentium 4 was way generation behind. when they first came out it might pretty decent but that was 5-6 years ago. right now there are more and more program can benefit from 2 cores or more so single core pentium 4 will have to struggle to run new software especially that rely heavily on cpu cores such as video editing program. i still remember when my pentium 4 can't load power director 8 because lack of processing power. when i got my e7500 the software was able to run just fine. honestly even some C2D or C2Q processor at their stock clock will bottleneck today's mid-range cards. my advice to you is if you don't have the money to change your platform then just upgrade your processor to C2D or C2Q. your motherboard should be able to support it. then take something better than GT430 such as HD5750 that you have in mind

I just looked for i3 and it is having 2 cores with a speed of 3.1GHz.
Its price is in my reach .....
I have a Nvidia 8400 GS (512mb) and i want to know that if i use it with the i3 than can i get good performance in Crysis by minimizing the quality????
crysis is very demanding on gpu side. regardless processor, 8400GS will struggle in game such as crysis even at very low possible setting. if you really want to get an i3 you'll have to change your motherboard and ram as well.

yes because they use different socket. your current mobo will only support LGA775 cpu. for i3 there are LGA1156 and LGA1155 (which is not compatible to each other as well). if you're tight on budget just get C2D or C2Q and you can still get significant boost compared to your current processor. just make sure which model you want to pick and we can suggest which graphic to get so there won't be bottleneck issue

you have issues, and you not going to be able to accomplish anything with your current system that you want. how much $ do you have for new hardware, what's your budget total.?

for starters, dont get the gt430, it is crap and overpriced. Let us know the make of your motherboard and CPU, get a program called CPUz which will tell you all this. Some newer GFX cards do not work in older motherboards. I would reccommend the gt240 (there are 2 versions, ddr5 and ddr3, get the ddr5 version) for your system. Forget DX11, lower end cards cant handle it anyway.

I have a friend running Crysis on a ATI 5750 @ 1280x768 (something like that) with perfectly playable graphics on Med - High settings (no FSAA ofcorz). He uses a 350 Watt PSU.
Hope this helps.

g31 you can put in an e7500 as it is 1066fsb which is all your MB supports. even an e6500 would be a significant improvement and would go well with a gt240. be careful of pcie 2.1 cards like ati 5xxx series, as they sometimes have issues with older motherboards such as yours and dont work. You could even look at second hand 8800gt or 9800gt or gts250 which would be better than a gt240. If it were my computer, i would get the e7500 and a gts250 or if that goes over your budget drop the cpu to an e6500, and if your still over budget with that get the e6500 and a gt240 or second hand 8800gt.

8800 and 9800 are power hungry so i would not advise you get any of those. Not saying it wont work, but its not recommended for a 400 watt PSU.
G31 chipset with PCIE1.0 would have no problem running any PCIE2.1 cards. My 6870 ran fine on my old MSI G31 mobo.

Even though I am late to the thread it can but it won't be all that great. That game can even cripple mid range cards on 4:3 resolutions much less 16:9 and 16:10/11. I have upgraded my cpu since I last played this one but that didn't stop it from maxing out my gtx 460.
bottom line is, dont get a gt430, it is slow. upgrade your cpu to e7500 or e6500 read a comparison here http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/ [...] 6500-e7500 now upgrade to a gt240 or if you have a bit more money an ATI 5750 which is faster, both are low power consumption cards that should run on your psu.

Turn off all the bells and whistles, keep the AA and AF minimal, and sure you could play Crysis and Crysis 2, but it's not going to look nearly as pretty or smooth as the screen-shots and videos you've seen.
The closer to the minimum requirements the closer to minimal settings and resolution you'll have to play the game. Recommended is typically for medium to high settings and 30+ FPS. Beyond recommended with cutting edge technology is a whole entire other story and typical of enthusiasts.
Crysis runs in DX9 or DX10 and the DX10 path will require more in fact it will probably require the recommended specifications to be playable. DX11 results in more performance at less of a tax than DX10, but I wouldn't touch either with a GTS 430 except in games that use DX11 as an optimization such as WoW. I'd just test each API and see which you prefer, you may have to choose between low settings in DX11 and medium settings in DX9 in Crysis 2 for example.

crysis is very gpu intensive game. when the game came out in 2007 there is no hardware available to max out the game. to this day crysis still used in benchmark because of it's resource hunger nature . i think you should go for GT430 if you really tight on budget right now. other option is save your money now and go for better gpu when you already have it. your call
not sure about that but upgrading your processor from P4 to C2D will definitely help your performance up in any games. crysis is very gpu intensive game. when the game came out in 2007 there is no hardware available to max out the game. to this day crysis still used in benchmark because of it's resource hunger nature . i think you should go for GT430 if you really tight on budget right now. other option is save your money now and go for better gpu when you already have it. your call
I have a Dual Core E5700.. I think crysis 2 is playable on GT430? I get 40-60 Fps ( 45 Average) in Black OPS..
heck just go buy a new pc that thing wont play it simple im not been nasty or big headed its the truth i would go amd am3 as is the cheapest platform atm compared to intel but the core i5 alternative is a nice buy and add a 5770.
Though id just point out my Mesh computer has a GT 430 (1.5gb) with 4gb ram. It can run crysis on maz settings with a framerate of about 60ps with no loss of quality or slowing. The only time i have ever noticed lag is in the massive tank battle level. It can also run crysis 2 on max settings with no lag whatsoever at a similar framerate. So yes, it can run pretty much any game in existance.
