Crazyglues6672d ago (Edited 6672d ago )

This article came at just the right time for me.

What gaming Card is coming in March? Is it from Nvidia and will it be really good for gaming?

Looking for something that can handle Crysis? I'm still building my Killer PC, just waiting on Graphics Card now Got everything else I think i'll need.

-Disregard the Graphics card, just put that as my second choice-

@Crazyglues it hurts my eyes to see the choices of psu, graphics card, ram, and motherboard, srr but it shows you still need to do some research. PM me if u need help.

TheIneffableBob6672d ago

the NVIDIA 9 series graphics cards are releasing in February/March.

Crazyglues6671d ago

As you can see I still need to do some serious tweaking thanks for the comments... I will let you know when I get closer to the finally product.

I was just looking for a new cheap graphic card...

SaiyanFury6672d ago (Edited 6672d ago )

A couple of years ago I was really new to the whole updated video card thing, but if I can learn specs then anyone should be able to. Basic things to look at are:

GPU clock speed - higher is faster

Amount of RAM - 128MB, 256MB, 512MB and so on

RAM clock speed - If you want a decent card start with a number about 1400Mhz and go from there. If you have to have the latest thing look around.

Number of pixel pipelines - Start with 24. If you need the latest thing, again, look around and find what you think is best.

RAM "bit" number - 64-bit, 128-bit, 256-bit and so on. If you want to save a few bucks but still want good general performance look for a 256-bit card.

Lastly, look at the memory bandwidth. If you're hell bent on getting a lightning fast card, look for a card with at least 60-plus gigabytes per second.

If you aren't brand specific there are two options: ATi and nVIDIA.
I, myself prefer nVIDIA, but ATi should also serve your purpose.

Heh, some people here may scrutinize my advice and I will admit, I don't need the latest thing. I'm running 2 nVIDIA 7950GT KO Superclocked video cards in SLI and it works just fine for me. I built my PC with good enough video processing power that I'm satisfied with it. I suggest all of you looking to get into the gaming side of PCs do the same. Consider your choices well and think about what you really want from your PC graphics-wise. Taking the time to really think about what you want from your PC will save you a lot of money in the long run.

Lavagasm6672d ago

What about the 8800GT series? They are awesome cards and they are going for about 250 bucks.

SaiyanFury6671d ago

I didn't mention any specific card, I simply stated my own configuration. People are free to choose whichever card they want.

Lavagasm6671d ago

I was actually referring to the article, it states that nvidia has no competition vs ati in the 200 dollar range. Sorry for the mix-up.

bumnut6671d ago

8800gt wil be less than £100, once the 9 series lauch.

SaiyanFury6671d ago

Hey man no worries. I prefer nVIDIA myself, but everyone is free to choose their own options. No need to apologize. I guess we both could've been clearer in our responses. :)

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio18d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing18d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit18d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing18d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
