tusharrastogi · Apr 10, 2008

Hello Frnds,
Need suggestions for headphones + graphics card for my old rig i.e AMD ATHLON 64 3000+. Its a bit urgent as i am visiting NP today itself and wanna buy the stuff today only. Kindly suggest me the model and from which shop shud i buy in Nehru Place. Thanks in advance.

Ok, please mention what do you prefer - an expensive headphone, an el cheapo headphone, better graphics card etc.

Anyways I would suggest the Geforce 8600 GT from some good manufacturer like Asus or EVGA for about 5k. And another 700 for the Iball 860 headset.

Hmm, that Philips headphones will sound much better than the Iball. And both graphics card + headphones will still be within your budget.

I would say get a 2nd hand 8600gt from this market for 3.7k and a good gaming headphone like a Sennheiser PC 151 from this thread of mine:

and you would have a very descent Combo

which gfx card do you suggest..?

Brendon · Apr 11, 2008

XFX 8600 GT, POV (point of view) 8600 GT or Gigabyte 8600 GT 256 MB (please please DONT buy the 512 MB version, its slower than the 256 MB version)

These cards are around 5k.

8600GT. 256MB GDDR3. Any brand with a service center closest to your home.
