NOT GOOD

It is PCI Express, but I want only PCI or AGP.

So, please suggest for RS 3000, PIXEL SHADER 3.0, VISTA Compitiable, only PCI or AGP.

SORRY FOR THAT.

I am now confusing between 6200, and 6800
Which one is good to BUY,, BUT will it cost below Rs 3000?

6800 is more than your budget.

What it costs?

& What about Nvidia 6600. Does it have 128 and 256 MODELS?
I have learnt from somebody, that if I buy 128 MB graphics card, large number of games will not work in Windows vista, but will work on XP. Is it right that the same Game will require only 128MB in XP, but 256Mb in vista?

It is available in 256MB

XFX 6600 Non-GT 256MB Rs 4500

Thats not true
But i would prefer if you go for 256MB

[gxsaurav]

Vista requires a graphics card with 128 MB RAM if you want to run the OS upto 1600X1200 resolution.

Beyond this resolution you will need 256 MB RAM

You best bet is indeed XFX 6200 with 128 MB RAM. Since you yourself mentioned you don't play games then this is enough for you. If you can get a 7300GT AGP then buy that.

I would like to purchase NVidia GeForce 6600 128 MB Graphics card having maximun resolution of 2048 × 1536 at 85Hz.

BUT my LG 15" CRT Monitor supports a miximum resolution of 1024 X 768 at 60Hz. Will I be able to run Vista at 1600 X 1200 resolution at that Monitor?

No you may not, even if you are able to run that high resolution, but u cant work, as text and other readable sizes will be so small u may need a magniflying glass

anyway, Even i am running 1152x864 in 17" CRT which i feel is the highest in which one can work properlly !!

Sorry, but I am not asking that Can I read the Text, or I need a magniflying glass?

Q:-
If I purchase 128 MB Graphics card having maximun resolution of 2048 × 1536 at 85Hz. Will my LG 15" CRT Monitor support that 1600 X 1200 resolution, or It will show "OUT of Frequency"?

No

[goobimama]

Didn't know that a resolution higher than 1600x1200 needed 256MB graphics card. lucky me. But seriously dude, Vista's Aero features are useless. Not worth spending 1.8k just for some transparency and the useless flippy thing...

then why the question comes... ?? if the hardware cant support that how u expect to run that high ?? u have given the answer for the question in ur own post..

[emailaatif786]

What LOGO or any other NOTICE/Information I have to look on Card BOX, befor buying it for Vista?
& What about 7100? What It costs?

[gxsaurav]

GeForce 7100 is for PCI express.

Get an AGP 6200 non ultra with 128 MB RAM atleast.

Or XFX 7300 GT AGP

[bikdel]

yeah go for 6200 agp version but let me tell u..... its striclty not for games...............

if you want something really cheap u can also go for any geforce fx card such as geforce fx 5200... it supports aero and has the requisite support for shader model 2.0, which is the minimum required for vista.......
the speed of fx 5200 is more than 6200...... why?...... because it has a wider bus of 128 bit whereas the 6200 has 64 bit bus......sorry... too technical.....

i use vista with aero in one of my computers with that card, the fx 5200 ......

but anyways 6200 is a good deal

[praka123]

my xfx7300 GT package says it is Vista Ready..baaki i dont know

[emailaatif786]

I want Card in AGP, with 256MB Memory, 3.0 PIXEL Shader, with NVidia CHIP.
Which of it is for about/upto Rs 3500, can go in 6 or 7 Series?

I will repeat all my considerations. I want to buy a Graphics Card for Windows Vista

I want to consider the following:
1:- I Almost Never Play Games.
2:- Need to purchase only & only for running Windows Vista Aero features.
3:- DDR2......(Maybe DDR3)
4:- 2.0 or 3.0 Pixel Shader.
5:- AGP 8X or PCI.
6:- 128 MB or 256 MB.
7:- Must Have Second Video OUT Port......(Any S-Video, DVI etc ..)
8:- Must have NVidia CHIP.
9:- Nineth & Most important,ie; It should be Below Rs 3500.

Is there any Model like THAT Available?

[Third Eye]

^XFX GeForce 7300

[emailaatif786]

But it's Bus Type is PCI-Express and I want only in AGP or PCI.

[gxsaurav]

XFX GeForce 7300 GS is also available in AGP mate.

[emailaatif786]

A:-Is there any PERFORMANCE difference between, NVidia Graphics Card with NVidia Chip, AND Any other Brand with NVidia Chip?

B:-Is there any COST difference between, NVidia Graphics Card with NVidia Chip, AND Any other Brand with NVidia Chip?

C:-Is there any FEATURE difference between, NVidia Graphics Card with NVidia Chip, AND Any other Brand with NVidia Chip?

What if I opt for Zebronics Brand with NVidia Chip? What is the compariable model/Brand to Zebronics?
