I have to suggest a GPU to my brother.

His configuration:

Intel Core 2 Duo E5700

Gigabyte Motherboard(I dont know which 1 but has a PCI-E slot)

2GB DDR2 667Mhz RAM

Acer 17" LCD resolution 1024x768.

Budget: 5k.

I suggested 9600gt or HD5670 but would appreciate your suggestions...He wants to play everything @max so Please suggest.

Thanks
 
I second that :)

You can consider 1gb too but it will probably not increase performance by much or even none at all.
 
5670 will handle all games @max? or should i tell him to buy a second hand 5750? or maybe expand a bit more for a new 5750? He wants to Play crysis series,Dragon age series and Call of duty series....?
 
To get 50-60 FPS in Crysis at 10x7 Max you will need a 5850/5870 level graphic card. But most games will run at high (but may be not max) settings with a 5670!
 
I think a 5670 with DDR5 will out perform a 6570 with DDR3.
sumit05 suggestion of Go for the Sapphire ATI Raedon HD5670 512MB GDDR5 ~ 4.4k is spot on. Good value for money, slight overkill for 1024*768, but will perform well upto 1680*1050 so in case you upgrade your monitor it'll still perform decently, if not exceptionally.
But I hope you've got a decent 400w PSU.

we are suggesting HD6670

yea I know price is a bit higher, but the card is cool running, small and I think it consumes lower power. And since it's more powerful, should do future games with high settings.
 
@iamddevil -Its not for me but my brother. He has the Gigabyte Superb 460w so I don't think a PSU upgrade is necessary, sorry off the topic....So I have suggested him to go the 6670. He will most probably buy it on Monday. Will let you guys know then Thanks. :)

Also he will not upgrade his PC IMO for another year. So. 6670 will be cool
 
He Bought The Sapphire HD6670 locally for Rs.5899(Location Jaipur) and is very happy with the performance of the card saying,"Woa I can play all the game's now."<---Never had any Graphic Card you know...hehe

Well thanks guys. :)
