LGA775 and PLGA755 are compatible 

Yeah i had read that before replying but thus i guess you must have noticed the word "probably" but thats what i think!

Hey there, if your motherboard doesnt support Core 2 Duo e6700, then probably you will not be able to utilize it 

@ShadowCaptain Thanks a lot mahn! So i have come to a conclusion after some reading and information that i gained through you that the motherboards these days dont have onboard graphocs and i require to BUY a CPU with iGPU or a CPU(Without an iGPU) and a discrete graphic card in order to get the display running! Hope this conclusion is correct? Thanks in advance!

@ShadowCaptain Thanks a lot first! This question into my mind whn i saw this video of Jayz2cents where he said that AMD's FX-8350 doesnt have integreated graphics so we require a discrete graphic card in order to run the display!

@ShadowCaptain So basically if get a motherboard which has onboard gpu(some sort of a HDMI connection) and a cpu without integrated GPU , that should  work right? , soory i am just a real newbie, so please help! Thanks a lot in advance

@ShadowCaptain But what about having a motherboard with Onboard Graphics? Wpuld that help?

Hey people,

I have a question actually! Is it necessary to have a discrete graphic card or is it to okay to have a CPU but without an iGPU(or a gpu in it) in order to get display. 

Hey, anyone here from Oman who is a PC Enthusiast and builds PC's. Well if yes do comment down below! Lets get connected!

It's better to compare video cards in terms of how they actually perform in real games, rather than looking at the misleading technical specifications.

It's worth pointing out that the GTX 950 is actually consistently faster than the R7 370 across all of the games in this review. At times the gap between them is as much as it is between the 950 and 960.

@typographie Ok Thanks A Lot Mahn

Clock speeds really don't matter. Also, XFX, not XVX.

Ok Thanks A Lot Mahn!

Look again. XFX says 380X. 

@TheRandomnessHoly Gawd! while cpoying the thing onto google and searching on newegg i missed out on the "X" so this happened ! Thanks a lot of mahn, gained a lot of knowledge today. But dude actaully i saw the 380 one on newegg, the XVX one was costlier than Sapphire Nitro and on top of it, it has a higher core clock speed!

That might be true. There's been a lot of new models released since I last checked reviews on this (as I'm not currently in the market for any upgrades), I was only commenting on the fact that for just over $200, it's quite impressive that you can get a 380X from a reputable brand.

@Caeradwyn Oh thanks a lot mahn!

1 minute ago, TheRandomness said:

No, the Sapphire one has a weaker GPU, the standard 380. The XFX one has a 380X core. 

@TheRandomness Hey  the link i was provided was that XVX one had 380 only not 380X!

Well, there are other factors than simply performance that factors in when discussing how "good" a graphics card is. Noise levels, power consumption, connectivity are all things that matter, depending on intended usage. I would personally gladly sacrifice a bit of performance to get a more quiet system.

However, at the $200 price bracket, I totally support the R9 380X as being an amazing value for money product, and from what I've seen in reviews, the XFX coolers are relatively quiet as well.

@Caeradwyn ohk, i used to think that Sapphire Nitro's were quiter, saw it on a reddit post!

8 minutes ago, TheRandomness said:

In this case the XFX one is better because it uses a more powerful GPU. R9 380X > R9 380. 

@TheRandomness I guess both the Sapphire Nitro and XFX have the same gpu! And yeah ill sure look out for R9380X ! Thanks

@Morgan MLGman Hey sorry mahn, but i wanted to know why is XFX's better than SAPPHIRE NITRO's like i had seen a post on Nitro that they are more silent, and in here i saw the core clock speed of SAPPHIRE NITRO's is better than that of XFX'S! REALLY SORRY MAHN! Just a doubt!  Thanks in Advance!

You basically look at the budget, find cards matching it from either Nvidia or AMD and then check which one is better atm.
Obviously their specs matter like features, amount of video memory etc, but they're usually fairly similar

usually, you should get the best possible GPU you can afford, because it's the thing that determines when you need to do a first upgrade, as games are less CPU dependent and one CPU upgrade should last 2-3 GPU upgrades imo

For 200$ the best you can get is this:

this is a cheaper version, only slightly slower, should offer better value for money:

It's up to you whether you can afford paying 30$ for a couple of more frames per second, it might come in handy in some more demanding games

Thanks a lot ! Really learnt something ! @Morgan MLGman Thanks a lot Again!

The actual performance. thats the only thing that will say how GOOD the card is. 

@David_K Thanks Mahn!

@Morgan MLGman 200 US dollars! but can u please tell me the general things which i should be looking out for while buying a graphic card! Thanks in Advance!

5 minutes ago, Morgan MLGman said:

Because these are different architectures. For example: R9 390X at 1100 mHz beats a GTX 970 at 1500mhz

@Morgan MLGman  Thanks! 

so what points should i keepin mind while i am buying an amd or Nvidia card or for any graphic card! please help! 

1 minute ago, Morgan MLGman said:

mhz on those chips are not equal. That means 1000 mhz on the 950 is not the same as 1000mhz on the 360.

@Morgan MLGman Oh why is it so ?

@Morgan MLGman Actually i was checking out the core clock speeds of both of them , so i found that coree clock speed of r7 360 is 1100 Mhz and that of 950 is 1025 Mhz. So doesnt that give an edge to r7 360?

6 minutes ago, Morgan MLGman said:

GTX 950 is faster than a 360

@Morgan MLGman why so? can u please give up the reasons, woud help me a lot! (p.s.: I am real newbie! so thats wanted to know ,be kind!)

Hey, i wanted to know which among the Raedon R7 360 and GeForce GTX 950 is better! Please give your suggestions along with reasons ! 

Would help a lot! Thanks in advance communiy ppl!
