still try to get dell ultrasharp 2208 WFP its worth that ..cos anything else doesn't come close to that monitor in that price range ..if u buy it locally u might get it for 16k ..or so ..

or else go for dell E228WFPfor 14.5k ...

i m waiting for dell S2209 to come in india ..hope it will be available by this year end ...this would be 22" supporting full HD :)

^^^ i agree with u on this.but with core i7 u wont be getting:integrated gfx processor,

thats also not my main pt.wat i'm thinking is i wont get a core i7 920 + a gud enuf x58 chipset based mobo + (GTX260/HD4870) + triple channel DDR3 rams (3*1GB sticks) even in 50k.even if i get a HD4850 ot 9800GTX+ even then i'll shoot north of 50k.and i dont wanna spend that much now.

that ASUS Rampage 2 Extreme X58 mobo will cost a arm and a leg.i'll be upgrading again in Mrach/April '09 and at that time i'll be able to stretch my budget to bout 1lac for getting Nehalem.

I've planned this upgarde 4 only 1 reason:i'm getting good price 4 my current hardware:
1>E8400 -> 9k,
2>abit IP35-E -> 6k
3>HD4850 -> 13.5k
so gimme 1 gud reason why i sudnt sell off my current hardware.

so wrt wat i've said above wat wud u suggest me to do?

:)

:confused:damn you:D that rich fellow is really muddy nub, ready to buy same thing priced more than the market price. Sell it man(first sell and then start buying for new specs)

still try to get dell ultrasharp 2208 WFP its worth that ..cos anything else doesn't come close to that monitor in that price range ..if u buy it locally u might get it for 16k ..or so ..

or else go for dell E228WFPfor 14.5k ...

i m waiting for dell S2209 to come in india ..hope it will be available by this year end ...this would be 22" supporting full HD :)

they have already stopped selling the SP2208 model.

also I do not see 2209 on any of the dell sites how did you get this monitor.

why cant you get dell.
hen consider Benq 2200HD model superb model superb pricing.

but frankly if you can pay moer than will suggest you to get a 24 inch model. But the price is double than 22 inch models. :(
