Corsair 450 vx

[nagaprasanna]

Can a corsair 450vx with 1x6 pin connector support a XFX ATi 6770 card?

xfx ask for a 500 watts minimum with 2 six pci-e pins connectors http://xfxforce.com/en-us/products/GraphicCards/HD%206000series/6770.aspx (please do not double post)

But in the image in the site there is only one connector present.Please correct me if am wrong.Only in requirements it says 2 connectors

Yes you'll be fine the VX450 is a very good quality unit.
The 6770 power requirements are low and only require a single pci-e 6pin.
This testbed used is an oc'd i7 965/x58 platform and full system power load is under 300W.

Is there any better card than 6770 under Rs 8000?

You could use a 6790 or 6850 with that psu both are better then the 6770.

Would be nice to know your cpu and if you plan to overclock either.
Any cards higher up would require a more powerful psu.

My cpu is intel pentium d 2.8 ghz
2 gb ram
My budget is under Rs 8000

But 6790 is costly.

Stick with the 6770. Anything over that is completely bottle-necked by the Pentium D and i'll put good money on that it is already bottle-necking the 6770.

its basically time for a system upgrade if you wanna play modern games and want to use a better graphic card.

for extreme budget considerations, get a second hand 8600gt or 9600gt.

should cost around Rs. 2000-2500.

I already had 9800gt which died recently.The latest games were performing well at max setting at resolution of 1024*768.Hence i need a replacement card.Can u kindly suggest from the below list

Asus NVidia Geforce GTX550 TI - 1GB DDR5-cost is 8025Rs
XFX ATi Radeon HD6770- DDR5- 1 GB cost is 6950Rs
XFX ATi Radeon HD6790- DDR5- 1 GB-8225RS
Asus NVidia Geforce GTS450 - 1GB DDR5 -6575Rs



Whic card to choose without updating my cpu/mobo/ram to get better performance since i will ply at resolution of 1024*768
