Thats the only option I have. :p

Arre bhai, we are not from any remote area.
Nanded is the second largest and important city after Aurangabad in Maharashtra's Marathwada region.
Its not that these gadgets are not available here, but yes, we don't have much choices.

As I said earlier, you can easily get Kingston and Transcend RAMs here, but if you ask for G.Skill RAMs then the dealer would ask, "ye g.skill kya hai ?"
The same thing with other gadgets too.
For e.g. you would get Transcend MP3 player or I-pod shuffle here, but they don't have any idea about other brands.


But yes, you can imagine if this is the scene in city like ours, then what about actual remote areas ?
Where is the IT revolution ?

Forget about your city, my native city has only Mercury, Frontech, LG & Intex. I have hardly seen people knowing about Apple Products & calling all PMP's & DAP's as I -Pod.

The only things that matters over here, how we live upto. Not just blaming from where we\yourself belong to.

@ vwad
Nahitar kaay yaar. :(


@ All
hum sab ek hi naav ke sawari hai :p


By the way, one friend at other forum has suggested me these two processors :
1) AMD Athlon II X3 440 ---> 3500
2) AMD Athlon II X2 250 ---> 3000

He has also suggested me a GPU, but I don't think I need any GPU for my computing purpose. (Do I really need it ?)


How is this combination ?

CPU :- AMD Athlon II X2 250 ---> 3000

Motherboard :- Gigabyte GA-MA78LMT-S2 ---> 2500

RAM :- 2x2GB kingston/corsair ---> 2500 (Should I buy from them ?)

PSU :- FSP Saga II 500W ---> 2000

Cabinet :- CM Elite 310 ---> 1500


Total :- 11,500 Rs.

He might have suggested GPU because of the obsolete(If I may dare to say so) mobo chipset :p

Regarding theitbazaar, there is better option available from that area, like smcinternational.in and lynx-india.com

Also I bought my Samsung Champ here in Pune from Mumbai based techshop.in, the customer care lady was really helpful.

The config suggested to you in TDF is more powerful than what you have listed out above. Rest is upto you.

RAM's price & availability is fine, go ahead purchasing those, but don't buy the mobo or Procy mentioned above.

P.S: Try checking out yourself ones by googling, before believing anyone's suggestion blindly.

I have read some reviews of AMD Athlon II X2 250, they are praising it.
Anyways, I'll buy the MOBO and processor suggested by you.
btw, what is TDF ? :p

And Corsair 2gb 1333Mhz DDR3 VS2GB1333D3 is compatible with the MOBO you have suggested na ? (Should I buy only 1 stick of 4GB or 2 sticks of 2GB each ?)
The price of AMD Phenom II x4 840 is not below 5,000 Rs. anywhere on internet. :(

its not like i'm saying its bad Processor, but when your budget can afford something, which is better than what you have listed, then why not going for it.

TDF : Thinkdigit Forum

And Corsair 2gb 1333Mhz DDR3 VS2GB1333D3 is compatible with the MOBO you have suggested na ? (Should I buy only 1 stick of 4GB or 2 sticks of 2GB each ?)

4gb single stick will be costing 2.5k to 2.8k, where as single Corsair Value DDR3 2GB 1333 costs 1k. So better to buy 2GB single stick now & upgrade another 2gb stick later, when you will save some more.

The price of AMD Phenom II x4 840 is not below 5,000 Rs. anywhere on internet. :(

As told earlier, if you are ready to buy online, then you can get best bet.

Refer this link: AMD Phenom II x4 840 - 4.8k with tax & shipping

Purchasing online is dawm easy then anything else now-a days & SMC is online site which is trusted by most of the digit-ians over here in this forum.
But your PSU, RAM & cabinet prices are fine in the local, so go ahead & purchase them locally & get the processor & mobo online.

CX 430 is available in mediahome.in @ 2.2K. Check it here.

I think the budget is so less, thats the only reason for suggesting a FSP Saga II 500w -2k. Surprisingly OP found Saga's availability in his home town.

BTW CX430 is better or Saga II 500w ???

Saga II 500w has some short cables I think. You need some lian li extentions if you have a bottom mounted PSU. :)

Thats the reason of suggesting a CM Elite 310 mid tower with top mounted PSU & fits the budget very much...

A paper punched by any punching machine, fits in any file whatsoever, similar is the case for PSUs :D

You guys were talking about some short length wires, tower cabinet, some extensions etc.
I am completely unaware about these things, thats why got little confused. :p

Hey guys, please suggest me an internal 500 GB HDD also. (My younger brother is funding for this. :p)
Is WD better than Segate Barracuda ?

No, SAGAII 500W has better and longer cables unlike SAGAII 400W. Its cables are sufficient for a bottom mounted cabby like CM Elite-430 and NZXT GAMMA.
IMO SAGAII 500W is much better than CX-430.

My vote goes to

Saga II 500w - 2k

WD Green or Blue 500 7200 32mb - 2k
