6770hd

[BSNL]

my monitor has 1 vga and 1dvi port. dvi port is active. my motherboard has 1 pcie x16 1 available. my question is that what type of monitor port is required for radeon hd 6770 1gb ddr5?

 

[rolli59]

Many HD6770 come with DVI and VGA (at least a DVI-VGA adapter) so hooking it up to your monitor should not be a problem.

my hd 6770 came with on vga , one dvi -i and one hdmi 1.4 a
you should ideally connect it with hdmi or dvi but vga is also fine

but the shopkeeper told me that 6770 wont work on neither vga nor dvi port monitors. he told that there should be another type of usb port beside the ports of vga and dvi monitors.

who ever said that you should never take advice from them again. VGA or DVI will be fine ?

They're either lying or don't know anything.
You're good to go with the HD 6770.

what's the manufacturer of that 6770 card? my sapphire 6770 only have dvi and hdmi ports but it does include a dvi-to-vga adapter so vga cables shouldn't have any problems.

 

[Onus]

The other connector types that may be available are HDMI and/or DisplayPort. Still, DVI is alive and well. Like gamerkila57 and Gman said, the shopkeeper has identified himself as not fit to give advice.

If I were you, I'd consider never buying from that shop again if possible. I've never heard of a 6770 model that can't run displays over VGA/D-Sub and DVI ports. If a 6770 can't do this, then it is a faulty unit that should be returned and either replaced with a working model or refunded. Some 6770s might need adapters to do this if they don't have the proper ports on them for everything, but most have a VGA, HDMI, and DVI port, possibly with a Displayport and/or an extra HDMI/Displayport/DVI port. There might be some that lack one type of port or another, but with adapters and converters, all 6770s should work with almost all computer-compatible displays that have been made in the last decade or two.

and he also told that i should buy radeon hd 6750 1gb ddr5 . he told me that this radeon 6750 will work on vga/dvi ports. but 6770 1gb ddr5 wont work on that ports. should i buy 6770 rather than 6750? i dont want to buy a graphics card which will not work on my computer. it is just waste of money.my cpu is intel cor2 duo E7400 @2.80 ghz and ram is 4gb ddr2 . and mother board is msi boston (ddr2 version).

all cards work with VGA as long as you have a DVI to VGA adapter which is provided with almost all cards ? so the HD 6770 would be fine and great for some gaming ?

Your shopkeeper, to put it lightly, is a bum. Never, ever, ever, listen to him again. A 6770 will work fine with your monitor and with your system as a whole. No worries mate.

but my friend why then did he told me to buy 6750 rather than 6770?

Why would he want you to buy a weaker card? The HD6770 is more powerful than the HD6750.

the shopkeeper told that 6770 wont work on vga/dvi ports. he also told that it works only on another type of usb port which is located on the monitor. but there is no such port in my monitor.

Sounds like the shop keeper does not know what he is doing, even if the card has display port or HDMI ports only then there are adapters to get you to a DVI connection (often included). Can you give us the brand and model of the card because I have never seen one without at least DVI?

Could you post the card's manufacturer? Or which model it is?
Cause I don't think the shopkeeper is putting his facts straight.
And no, don't go for a HD 6750. The HD 6770 is faster, and it only costs just a few more bucks.

 

[stant1rm]

Seriously, I have used a 6770 in build for my brother. It works fine. All the 6xxx series cards work with any monitor that uses DVI or VGA, even ancient CRT monitors.

You won't have any issues with a 6770 and it's nicer card then the 6750.

but at last i have to buy 6750 because it costs rs 5400 but 6770 costs rs 7500.

 

[rolli59]

So if that is your budget buy it it is still a good card.

That's still good. So your budget didn't fit in for a HD 6770? Anyways, the HD 6750 is just fine.

How much is a Radeon 7750 in your area? It used to be between a Radeon 6750 and a Radeon 6770 in average performance in games, but it might be able to match the 6770 or thereabouts in games with current drivers (Catalyst 12.7). If it's not too expensive, then maybe it would be a better buy. It also uses much less electricity than the 6750, so it's a little cheaper in the long term, granted the power bill probably won't take a noticeable hit even with the 6770 because these really aren't very high-power consumption cards.

Judging by the currency, I live in India too, and the HD 7750 is about the same price or more than the HD 6770.

The lowest I'm seeing here is PowerColor's. But I doubt the OP can get it for the same price.
