Ubata DDR3 vga ekak gahanna puluwan

senan said:
Mata DDR3 ganna baa.Motherboard 1 DG33FB.eka DDR2..I dnt hv d@ much money.mata hithena widiyata 9500GT eka hodai wage.price 1th shape.clock speed 1th aulak naa.

Macho methana podi case ekak thiyenawa, mama eka sarlawa kiyannam.
DDR3 kiyanne RAM type eka VGA eke, not in ur system MB, Eth api DDR3 vga ekak gahanawanam ape system eke RAM bus ( memory speed) eka 800Mhz wenna ona, mokada normal DDR3 start wit dat speed. So, u hv dat feature in ur MB.
I told u so, cos, apita DDR3 VGA eke fully effort eka gannna ona nam ape RAM and VGA memory speed aduma tharame equal enna ona, eg ube MB eke ram speed eka 667 unot, ubata ddr3 eken dena fully effort eka below or equal to 667. ( e kiyanne ube MB eka 667 support unat, ubata ddr3 VGA ekak use karanna puluwan, but it is useless, on dat case its better to use low cost ddr2 vga)

Dont get confusion with dat GDDR5 thing, it normally comes with Ati VGA cards, and also refer to a high speed vga memory.

Thawa deyak tiyenawa, barkleys eke 9800gt n 9600gt vga out of stock kiyala post ekak thibuna, poddak hoyala balahan. Dont b hurry, ubata kiyanna mata mage 9500gt 512 eka ganna rs 9k/- ekathu karanna maasa 4 withara giya, mama mulinma hoyaddi thibune 8500, then 8600,8800, then saw 9400 512 for 7.5k. But i didnt buy it. Then last found 9500gt on my price. So b patient, n try ur best to buy the best, cos once u bought u have to use it atleast for 1yr. Thats reality, so buddy, try to buy 9800gt.
Do google to see the big diffferece bet'n DDR2 VGA and DDR3 VGA.

Macho !....

GeForce & Asus Brands are good....

Go & buy at Digital House , Kollupitiya....
or 3D Computers , Unity Plaza , Bambalapitiya....

This is my opinion & advice....

But , you can do as your wish....

hello machan. if you want to play new games, you have to buy a fast VGA card machan, VGA card has a Graphic processor and built in RAM like Memory. like in a PC. so the Processor should be powerful and more memory should be avaialble as well.. 1GB is the memory. you cant get a clue about how powerfull the GPU is by looking at its memory.

and the memory type is important as well. some says that the DDR2 512MB 8600GT is slower than the 8600GT DDR3 256MB.

try to get a VGA like 8600GT or 9600GT etc. otherwise you will not be ablle to play games machan

go for 9500GT,and VRAM is not such important in such a VGA,and @ nt much higher res

Better to go for 9600GT or 9800GT

Machan ATI thamai best, but ewa ganan wadi n hoyaganna ba. Samahara wita ~v3n0m~ place ekak dannawada danne na, mama hitanawa man ati gana dannawa.
Machan ubata hamogema comments walin penenawane, 9400 z not good at all. Uba oya 1G eka gatta kiyala hitahan, ubata undercover game eka butter wage gahanna bari wenakota mokada karanne, ubat oka wikunannat tikak amaru wenawa, ( whether u use it 2 week or 2 months it z consider as second hand, so market z low) Ethakota uba wikunanna hitanne mokakda, thawa hard thiyenawanam wikunanna aulak na.
E K users la metana hamogema experience eken ubata kiyanne, 9400 ekata yanna epa kiyala. Alut VGA dawasin dawasa enawa thamai, dan yanne Geforce 200 series, api thawama gforce 9, but api ape market eke thiyena hoda eka ganna ona ne machan. Its up to u machan.

Thawa ekak, Asus, MSI brands hoda wadi machan ape budjet ekata ( normally price z high) XFX kiyanne nvidia walta original brand ekak, ekat tikak ganan. Lankawe apita hoda brands thamai EAGLE and FOXCON. I prefer eagle. Its depend on ur like.
But i am not recommend AXLE brand, it is da cheapest in UNITY, and worst VGA i saw. Sometimes VGA card BIOS z not updated, some cards not supports to linux, some has small heat sink n fan, so GPU get heated more than 65 c. Those problems comes with particular series, eg fx ,7 series and 8400... but i dont know about 9400.

Barkleys eke case uba read karanna ati ne, VGA ekata normaly warrenty 1yr nisa, ubata kohen gattat ekai. Mokada oya mulu UNITY ekama ekai ne.

9500 has approximateley twise performance than 9400 , Bcos 9400 has only 16 core processors and 9500 has 32 cores. ( dont get confusion with cores in here n intel processor, they r different types. 9600 has 64 and 9800 has 112 cores)
Also Texture Fill Rate in 9400 z 4.4(billion/sec), but in 9500 has 8.8(billion/sec)

So, by comparing those thing 9500 512 z show more performance than 9400 1G in games.
