Thanx for da info.GN!!
It can't. PCI-E can only support up to 75W no matter which motherboard it is.

:eek:
download one & run it (1080 ones uses all of my cpu & still drops a lot of frames :growl: : coz my o/b vga doesn't support hd decoding-afaik )
But the codec also can affect ne? I'll see if I can find some.

AFAIK hardware acceleration(in gpu) is needed to play those vids without dropping any frames
I downloaded WMVHD 1080p trailer from Microsoft. (Terminator 2)

Played it on WMP11 and JetAudio 6.28. Here's the task manager usage.

JetAudio used less resources, and the video quality in both players was immaculate. In WMP11, video smoothing was turned off together with DirectX acceleration because they made the CPU utilize more cycles.

    If you buy the X800GTO, you can make it almost as fast a X850XT which is even faster than a 7600GT.
    Yeah, but without all that eye candy known as HDR, Motion blur ...etc. No use of just speeds :lol:

    Not sure about the current prices but,
    7600GS was spotted at Rs.14,500 at Mitech
    X800GTO is around Rs14,000-19,000 (dunno the current prices or the best deal)
    I haven't seen a 7600GT
    Haven't checked the prices of 7300GT because I wasn't gonna get that how much cheaper it was.

    Dont go for the X800 :no: ;) :lol:

    7600GT availble @ EPSI, if u cud afford :yes:

    I guess 7300GT doesnt exist in SL :confused:

    zCexVe said:
    Heard EPSI got 7600GT or so for 18k.
    Are u sure??? :( I guess its arnd 20-24k, coz they told me its 25k, when I bought my 7600GS for 17.5k

    My frnd has HSBC credit card :(

    zCexVe said:
    Anusha ayya U dont need HSBC account.Just show them u (Ur father)get @ least 25k income for month.then u can get the cheapest card.It'll do.U can put money and buy ne.But it sumtimes it is very hard to get one.They call evrywhere and sometimes verymuch hassle.Coz of that ma dad got a damn Standard Charterd.The damn card never has any special offers to get me in with.
    Yeah its true, my frnd always brags abt HSBC, yeah tht card is worth it :yes: , I'll get one soon ;)

    Faster?? For wt? If you wish to buy an old card, its... :( Am very sorry for you, coz its the era of 8800's and X1600's(or watever ATI), so go for smthing new. Am not insulting Mr.Alternative ;) , coz I bought my card on his advice :yes: :) , he had to buy his card, coz he got a black market underarm deal :lol: frm some PCH ppl and it was worth it and it was the hi end card @ the time :yes: , which I missed by inches twice.. am :( and :) of it, coz I got 7600GS, coz I missed tht deal.

    My 7600GS clocks

    dfault : 380/533
    oc'ed : 500/800
    temp : 50-55C @ Idle , 60-65C @ load (coz of running oc'ed)

    else it'd be arnd 40-50C on Idle

    In my card memory came underclocked, had to overclock to 800mhz (7600GS spec dfault :( ) , Works full settings on NFSC, NFSMW ...etc

    Hey, 7600GS supports H.264 HD video decoding by hardware, I hav h640w and h480p videos on my HDD, plays smoothly :yes:
    Hey! 640x480 is nothing compared to 1080p (i.e. 1920x1080). 0.3MPixel vs. 2MPixel :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    HDR is there. And you don't use motion blur even if you could ne.

    Besides, this is a temporary card before I switched to DX10. I'm saving money for a DX10 card, and already have 10k. By the time they are available (I mean the midrange ones), I will have enough money to buy one.

    It will be faster than a 7600GT.

    I don't care what he tells me. He's the one who's living in the old days. 1024x768 resolution? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    7600GT can't handle the power required by advanced SM3.0 functions. You have to got a 7900 series if you wanna have the best experience. Anyway, if you think about SM3.0, it's old as well. New generation is SM4.0.

    Mine goes to 80C at full load. Remember, this card's cooler is not supposed to handle the heat dissipated by a X850XT. But this is still OK. You only need to keep it under 90-100C for a video card. 45C is the idle temperature. I have to agree, the 7600GT runs cool because it uses a newer process technology. 7600GT uses 90nm and X800GTO uses 130nm or 110nm.
