[paul.rohit]

guys i need help builiding a rig that im going to use mainly for hd gaming...i want to play games like crysis 2 ,deadspace 2 ,arkham city etc etc at full hd without any stutters in the frame rates...so pls help a fellow gamer out..

i want a suggestion of :
a sandy bridge processor
a p67 motherboard
4gb of ram
hdd(1 tb)
a psu(i have no idea abt the power im going to need)

my budget is 35000 for the above mentioned parts

p.s. ive already decided to get two zotac gtx 560 ti graphic cards so the motherboard should be sli-ready

ive also heard abt a problem in the sandy bridge chipsets(something abt the sata ports) so it would b gr8 if you could tell me more abt that cuz if its a big problem then i dont wanna risk a sandy bridge system

thanks in advance

thanks a lot for the config

is the Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4 a better board than the one you recommended?
is it free from the sandy bridge sata problem?

you can save on cabinet, NZXt got good reviews here costing 2K.

For cabinet, you can get Cooler Master Elite 430 @ 2.5K. It is also very good cabinet at the price range and also very good for multi GPU setup. In the review I've checked that it is able to two HD 5970 in CF.

paul the gigabyte p67a ud7 costs 17k! it is definitely better.
but i have mentioned a very good and vfm mobo for you.
for all mobos you need to look at B3 revisions.

@all
guys better spacious cases are always recommended for sli or cfx.

im not talking abt the ud7 ,im talking abt the ud4

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

the asus p8p67 pro is better buy than ud4. but they cost 11.5k~.

 

[ankit0_0]

the cost for p8p67 pro is not 11.5k its 12600

@op
If you want to SLI\X-Fire your rig then go for a spacious cabby as suggested by Jas, Better go for a Full-tower if you can..But it's totally upon you to decide ...
