I this a good graphics card ?

[adity8522]

Is NVIDIA Geforce GTX 465 1GB GDDR5 a good graphics card to play modern games ?
I want some suggestions.

 

[DarkSable]

Erm, no. It's a very old card, and wasn't amazing even when it was brand new.

If you want suggestions, it would help if we had a budget to play with.

You know I got a great video for you from LinusTechTips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8S9qrWh20QU

 

[ARICH5]

its an old card....youd prolly get framerates of around a 7750 or 7770. i wouldnt buy it though.

 

[adity8522]

I am in india. So, my budget is below Rs.10,000

 

[ASHISH65]

Tell us your whole specs and max resolution?

 

[adity8522]

Intel Core i7 3770
Asus P8B75-M
8GB DDR3 RAM 1600mhz
1tb HDD 7200rpm
cooler master 500w psu

This system is not built yet

 

[ASHISH65]

2 things change in pc 1) get corsair cx 500w instead of coolermaster as cm psus are not good. 2)get i5 3470 instead of i7 as i5 and i7 perform same and you will save up money of 7k so you can invest in better gpu.

 

[adity8522]

Will you help me comparing I7 3770 vs I7 2600 vs I5 3570 ?
At the cost of that I5 processor, I am getting the I7 2600.
So, should I buy it ?

 

[ASHISH65]

Hmm at that same price i7 2600 is good

 

[ASHISH65]

Look for i5 3470 instead of i5 3570.

 

[ASHISH65]

Tell me your whole budget and i will tell you best config

 

[adity8522]

My whole budget (In indian rupees) is Rs. 50,000. Can go to 52.
Wanted to buy a laptop under 60. Can you suggest ?

 

[adity8522]

Also my uses are computing {like surfing web etc. (This just excludes gaming)} is 65%
The left over is dedicated to gaming.

 

[ASHISH65]

Which components you want under 50k?

 

[adity8522]

I want everything including keyboard, mouse, monitor etc. And SSD if possible.
I will be OK if I get a 120GB SSD at a price range of 1TB HDD

 

[ASHISH65]

Ok just wait i will update in few min

 

[adity8522]

OK.. Waiting......

 

[ASHISH65]

intel i5 3470 - rs 11000
Gigabyte or asus b75 d3h - rs 4100
Corsair vengance 8gb ram - rs 3000
Wd cavier blue 1tb hd - rs 4000
Corsair cx 500w psu - rs 3500
Logitech keyboard & mouse set - rs 700
Dell IN2030m led 20inch - rs 6500
OCZ agility 3 120gb ssd - rs 6200
Lg dvd drive - rs 1000
Iball speakers - rs 500
Iball cabinet - rs 1000
Nvidia gtx 650ti - rs 10500

TOTAL- rs 52000.

do not get from online store as they are overpriced.go to local store even you may get at 50k

 

[adity8522]

I can save money on that monitor Dell IN2030m led 20inch - rs 6500 ????
Because I don't want a very big monitor, I have this selected here: http://www.flipkart.com/acer-15-6-inch-led-p166hql-monitor/p/itmdcugpus2gqkh9?pid=MONDCUGBWPMCTNFP&ref=53cbf21d-453c-4cf0-9534-fd06b28762af&srno=m_1_1&otracker=from-search&query=acer%20monitor

 

[adity8522]

By saving money on monitor : 6500 - 4100 =2400.
and I also don't want speaker as I have it : 2400 + 500 = 2900
11000 + 2900 = 13,900.
Spending just a little more, I will get an i7 2600. I will benefit from this as it has hyper threading also .
What do you say ?

 

[rdc85]

IMO, the monitor is wide monitor it actually had small display area so i would not change the monitor, (my 17" old monitor had the same hight as my 23" wide monitor)

i5 is good enough for everything. Not so many games/apps optimized to use 8 thread that i7 offer, so dump the extra money for GPU...

if u insist go with i7 u will get unbalanced build, strong in processor but weak at GPU...
(GPU is more important in gaming, in everyday task not much processor power is used)

anyway that just my 2c

 

[ASHISH65]

Why you need 15.6inch?small get atleast 18.5inch

 

[ASHISH65]

I7 is overkill for your needs take my suggested config.

 

[adity8522]

15.6 inch is very great for me. My laptop too has same.
Can you just tell me, will I get performance like an I7 from I5 3570 in computing ?
I5 doesn't have hyper threading.
