best graphic card????

[get2vijay]

Hi Friends

Which is the best Graphic Card available for HD Gaming now ???

 

[toyota]

the best as in the fastest one being made or the best one for you to buy based on your system and needs? lol. the 5970 is the fastest card with gtx480 being the fastest single gpu card.

 

[get2vijay]

How it performs as compare to ATI HD5470 (given as Default config in Dell studio 15 )?

 

[hiddensniper11]

Best in terms of performance? Price? Or price/performance?

If you have the money, buy the most expensive graphic card you can get.

Prformance.....Money is not an issue.

 

[edplayer]

oh okay. so you have a laptop and you are trying get a faster gpu? it doesnt really work that way as most laptops are not upgradable and you most certainly couldnt put in anything remotely fast as the 5970 or gtx480 anyway. you would need to but a real gaming laptop but again their gpus arent even close to very high end desktops cards.

If money is no object check out the asus G73jh, it comes with a 5870 built in, looks very cool and is a very high quality gaming laptop.

well to be a clear for the OPs sake, a mobile 5870 is slower than even the desktop 5770. in other words its not even half as fast as the desktop 5870.

You may want to look into an Optimus based notebook. ASUS and Toshiba and Alienware comes to mind as companies who produce them. You can get one of these Optimus notebooks with a very powerful GPU for use when gaming, but completely shuts them off and uses onboard graphics for 2d usage. Work, web browsing. Saves battery life when not gaming.

Considering a laptop which card will perform good ?...anyhow we can't compare a desktop and a Laptop in terms of performance.

 

[Keysplayr]

310M and up seems like performance is good at 1366x768 res.

GT325M looks very good.

That's a good laptop. However, GTX480M is a good 30%+ faster than the 5870 mobile and comes with 2GBs of ram: http://hothardware.com/Reviews/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-480M-Fastest-Notebook-GPU-Yet/?page=6

The only faster setups would include a combination of cards such as GTX280M/285M SLI, Mobility 4870 X2, GTX480M in SLI or Mobility 5870 CF cards.

So, for a single GPU laptop, GTX480M is the best. http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-480M-SLI.32129.0.html Keep in mind, the laptop will weigh more than 10lbs and have abysmal battery life.

Keys, the cards you linked are very slow. GT 325M is only ranked 67th: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphic-Cards.13849.0.html

Yah, I keep forgetting that the OP said money isn't an issue. Not used to that. LOL.

 

[SlowSpyder]

Do notebooks with the 480M exist yet? Checking Alienware.com the fastest I see is 5870 Mobility in CF.

 

[Athadeus]

I found one hit on Google shopping:
http://www.avadirect.com/product_det...asp?PRID=17560

More should be coming since June is the official launch month.

X8100 - http://www.clevo.com.tw/en/products/prodinfo_2.asp?productid=177
D900F - http://www.clevo.com.tw/en/products/prodinfo.asp?productid=19

They don't look pretty, but rather like briefcases lol

 

[SlowSpyder]

Ah, I didn't see them when I looked.

Ya. The problem with the Clevo setup is that for $2400 you can get an Alienware with 5870s in CF. Currently, the CF setup will be faster for a little bit more $. I imagine as more manufacturers release 480M parts, the prices should be more competitive.

High end "gaming" laptops are desktops with a built in screen and an external power supply, nothing more nothing less. With dual GPU "desktop replacements" battery life is going to be measured in tens of minutes, not hours -- just enough to move from one wall plug to another. These 200+ watt scrotum scorchers are guaranteed to deform your sperm, so don't even think of using one on your lap if breeding is a remote future possibility.

If you're planning on gaming in airports or on a plane then consider the feeble GPUs Keys mentioned. Yes, they're basically a 9400GT and 9500GT on 40nm process with a new sticker (those were ultra-slow bargain basement cards 3 years ago and haven't aged well), but at least you'll get some battery life out of your laptop. Should be fine for hotel use though.

If all you need is *multimedia* (read: DVD playback, hulu) then just about anything nvidia powered will work.

The GTX480M is the fastest, though that does not necessarily mean it is the best one to purchase.

OK this is the fastest notebook if money is no object. Just buy 2 extra batteries.

i'd be surprised if the battery lasts more than 30 minutes
