GTX 560 or GTX 1000 also not point if nvidia cannot solve the micro suttering problem...

huhuh just bought gtx260 for 900..aiyakk

i have procured a cooler master 500 watt extreme psu....can it take a 9800gtx+?
im planning to get an intel e6xxx proc and a p35 base board.


can my psu take all of it?

assumes that 500W gives 75% of efficiency , and assume that 9800GTX+ take 280W during peak ,
most you can give the psu load 80% of it , so 400W supply with 75% efficiency , only 300W.
I think you should buy a better power supply like Silver Stone Strider ST56F , erm... CM Real Power better than extreme power series.
just my assumption. if anything wrong please correct ya

Why dont you try the PSU voltage Calculator.

yup...sure u can...my fren use 9800gtx+ AMP! Edition...which OCed Version...and AMD Phenom X4...Can run without problem...


b4 tiz my CM460w Extreme power + also can support 9800GTX+....

the micro suttering does happen on Ati dual-cores card ? like HD4870X2 ?
mind to tell ?

Depends on games. Microstuttering almost doesn't exist for games above 70fps.
Most monitors comes with a refresh rate of 60 or 70Hz, meaning u would need 70 or 80fps to eliminate microstuttering

No matter how high your FPS still got micro stuttering on Nvidia 9800GX2 and GTX295.

on 3D Mark 06 the flying ship chasing by Dragon..when the Dragon jumping cross the airship part the micro suttering is most high for me..even the FPS i got is 1xx above also feel the sudden stop for 1 sec

When u play games do u get micro stuttering? I doubt u do.

meaning 260 is ok? im planning to buy palit gtx260 sonic 216sp. recommended??

single gpu graphic cards are always recommend
palit gtx 260 is good
mind to state ur rigs so that ppl can recommend u the best gc that suit ur pc

bro i actually wanna buy a new pc. so im choosing a good gc first then only see whats other parts that suit my little baby

Just go for GTX260 Palit Sonic.

Dual fan + Awesome insanity.

Not to mention highly OC-able.

thanks guys.. im quite new to gcs. i have a question here. on another thread i saw ppl saying single gpu is better than SLI? what does it mean? isnt it SLI is just for u to add-on another same card that u already have? so is this 260 single gpu? i hope someone generous can it explain to me.

gtx 260 is single gpu graphic card
SLI definitely has better performance than single gc
but SLI or Crossfire has micro stuttering problems (google it for more info)
that's why ppl said tat singple gpu is better

so bro. meaning using one gtx260 which is a single gpu doesnt have any micro stuttering problem right?

Micro stuttering happen because using dual GC, using one GC of course, won't cause this problem.

thanks kimono38-chan

just go for GTX260..but i dont recommend gtx285..perfomance just about 15%-20% more..not worth it for money
