Instead of FX-8120, get Phenom II X6 1090T or 1100T. They are better suited for gaming and most of the cases offer better multi-tasking performance unless the software is specially designed to support the advanced instruction sets like AVX, FMA4 etc.

What has happened to the PC Configuration feature? It is Q3 now, but even Q2 configurations are nowhere in sight. We are eagerly awaiting those. What has happened? can anybody update, pls?

Tks very much.
Blackbird in his post 576 has given a price list. That Has Asrock H61M U3S3
having USB3 and even sata3 costing Rs.4500. seems VFM.
How does it compare with motherboards in configs which has either ASUS P8H61-M PLUS V2 or ASUS P8H61-M LX? Also any suggestions for similar spec/price range but better motherboards?
Thanks in advance.

No one seems to be interested in mini itx alas
Okay here is the answer to you query..
ASRock may seems to be good option but again we don't know abt the service (ASS)

Another think if u need SATA 3 AND USB 3 and some other features like Esata port, HDMI and DVI port than go for DH67BL / CL (LARGE) it will come around 5400 will be you best bet plus it is a good board for upgrade just right amount

Also remember to check out my thread
*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/pc-components-configurations/159293-gaming-rig-under-35k-accesory.html

i posted my latest purchase. you will get good idea on the rates...

Do check the Processor support list also want to give u one tip do not buy ram over 1333mhz if u are buying i3 or less config in INTEL... over above it will be good also use dual channel setup for good result..check internet for what is dual channel setup...

The tables on the first post won't be working because of this reason. Time to switch to the newer format.

Also note - The old [ Table ] tag will stop working now. Get used to the new way.

Just a noob building his first computer and asking noob questions:
It is about compatibility

1) is this: Asus MAXIMUS V GENE
compatible with this ZOTAC GeForce® GTX 670 AMP! Edition ?

Also, is the same motherboard, compatible with the normal EVGA GTX 670?
