Card died looking for advice

[nellie_15]

I have a Gateway FX4710-UB003A pc, specs include:

400watt power supply
6g memory
intel core 2 quad q9330 processors

The graphics card just died a
NVIDIA® GeForce® 9800GT 512 MB video card, factory overclocked

any suggestions on what to upgrade to that the power supply will handle

I am a photographer and I do a lot of work in Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 4 with big 125mb raw files.

Thanks

i will get these one its a new and powerful handle photoshop like a blink of an eye i would go with this one http://www.nvidia.in/object/geforce-gtx-650-in.html#pdpContent=0

Define died. It might now have died.

What is your budget?

 

[dudewitbow]

when shopping for a nvidia gpu for cuda based processing, aim for what has the best ratio of your budget to # of cuda cores available to you, then make all other choices around that(like psu)

 

[nellie_15]

Thanks for the recommendation by died. I mean have verticals red lines coming down the screen. Says driver is not working so. I updated driver still no go. Error code 43. A budget of about $200 give or take.

For raw compute on a budget is Fermi era GTX400/500 era cards but they do use a lot of power. Kepler has a lot of build quality issues and some performance related issues in certain compute apps. OpenGL support is mostly broken on anything newer than GTX2xx.

Except his PSU won't run that. He'd need two 6pin plugs and I've never seen a 400W PSU have that many. GTX550TI.

here cheap and good one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130827

That isn't worth the space it takes up and for the same price a 7770 can be had then overclocked to 1.2ghz.

the GTX 650 wouldn't be a bad card. He just may need to use his CPU for some stuff and it might take longer. kepler Geforce cards are designed for Gaming. Not made for compute or OpenGL. Thats why nvidia does professional graphics on the kepler architecture... anyways its still a good card to get.

What card would you recommend Rockdpm

 

[Rockdpm]

for 460 watts of power, a good cuda card with 1 6pin. A gts 450 if you can find it. I have 1 in a family computer. Its a powerful card with 1 6pin power requirement

 

[Sunius]

I'd go with this one:

It's a little bit more expensive, but it's probably twice as powerful as anything suggested here, and it will run on your power supply unit without any problems.

 

[4745454b]

Over his budget.

 

[Sunius]

Well, he said $200 give or take. It's pretty close to it. And it's definitely worth it considering the performance.

 

[Rockdpm]

If he's gonna get any 660 it needs to be this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130826

OK I now understand why people have been calling Nvidia fanboys Nvidiots and your 660 is over his budget. OP is better off for the short term to go with a 77x0 and save up for a higher end card to go along with a new psu. A decent Bronze or Silver rated 550w unit will run a power hog of a card just fine. I wouldn't be so sold on Kepler, sure it can play some games ok but once OpenCL becomes common place performance will suffer. Kepler is just despite the lower power consumption. The GT640 and "GTX"650 is just far too weak as well overpriced.

You AMD fanboys love to pick at Kepler don't you? Like a bully always looking for a weak spot to troll on... Listen the guy wants a NVIDIA card, then were gonna recommend him a NVIDIA card. the guy has a 200$ budget. a GTX 660 can run off a 460 watt power supply easily

btw nforce, to say Geforce people are idiots would be to say your an idiot. Think about it. If NVIDIA didn't exist, AMD would get more slack and produce every crappier products. If AMD didn't exist NVIDIA wouldn't worry about its more Awesome community it supports....

 

[nellie_15]

I believe the power supply is 400 watt will that still run these cards.

This thread went hayward fast.

This thread went hayward fast.

yep.. thats what happens when you throw an AMD fanboy into a thread

 

[Rockdpm]

A 7750 runs off PCI Express power and not the power supply its self so yes you have plenty of power
