Not trying to make fun of you or be rude to you, but which Idiot dealer is that? Since you live in Mumbai, buy from www.primeabgb.com (Prime ABGB, Lamington road). Great dealers, else you may try www.theitwares.com also on lamington, also good.

Gigabyte has very good after sales service, ASUS suffers from poor A.S.S. Intel board is too basic for 7.2k. At that price you get a full featured OCing AMD mobo. Nothing better than the Gigabyte P55M-UD2. VIP Gold SMPS? You really wanna power your CORE i5 with a VIP el cheapo smps? I suggest a minimum of CM Real Power Pro 460W @ 3.5k or Corsair VX450W @ 4k. Intel boards are good at about 3k, but paying 7k for a board which is actually worth about 6.2-6.5k also without any advanced features is just not right.

I suggest you cancel your order right now and go to PrimeABGB. They will give you better rates and are one of the most reputed dealers on Lamington.

do not get a native Intel board. Your dealer is just acting like a wise-a**, by saying Gigabyte gives bad service. It is one of the biggest motherboard brands along with ASUS and MSI.

Please do not power using VIP PSU. Gosh..you are getting such expensive equipment..VIP is risky. Plus you have plans for the 9800GT, that is a beefy card. It will need a robust/solid PSU. What Krow suggested is nice.

^^ Well....! Probably the performance difference between the two boards will be NIL. IF you run them both at stock.

Just that the Gigabyte one will give you options to unlock certain features for RAM/CPU. You will have capability to change the FSB and DRAM ratios, to getter slightly higher performance. Basically you can OC.

For Intel boards its all locked, though soft-mod hacks are available.

Well you chose good stuff. But not to throw a spanner in the works --- if the motherboard is not good, rest is also not good. Though you have your reasons for choosing Intel Motherboard. You spent so many days choosing your stuff, and then narrowed down to an Intel Motherboard. :(

Just being frank and honest.

hi dude

i've recently purchased the i5 along with the intel board(dp55wb) & corsair vx450w.

the intel board costs around 6.3k not 7.2k.:?:

try consulting your dealer for the diff. in price.

go for the vx450:idea:

@mandar5

for the card go for the gts 250 instead of 9800gt.

if you have an existing card then i would suggest to wait for nvidia fermi cards.they are goin to be worth the wait.
