Hi,

I am bit confused between asus p8z68-v pro and asus gene-z, being a atx card will it improve overall temps of mb and thus longevity.

My choices for mb are:-
1) Asus p8z68-v
2) Asus p8z68-v pro
3) Asus gene-z
4) MSI gd 65/55

When can we expect new nvidia gfx cards. Do we need to wait too long to available in India.

wat abt monitor is dell reliable monitor ? and is it good for gaming, long run.

If you don't wanna wait for the AMD 7000 series cards then get Sapphire HD 6950 1 GB DIRT 3 edition @ 14.5K or MSI Twin Frozer II GTX 560 ti.

So, you have purchased a processor costing Rs. 35,000 and a motherboard costing Rs. 15,000 (may be more)......when your overall budget was Rs. 60,000?

@rajat, @ico

I have 40k for remaining components, I am not going to buy speakers and HDD. I got them from US since my friend got some very good offer so I got them for $600.

@S_V

Intel board since I got a very good offer for this pair.

@jas

I will post the results as soon as I finish my build.

Guys I have 40k left with me I need to finish the build as soon as possible. I cannot make these beasts sitting idle.

Do I need to wait for PCI 3.0 gfx cards or shall I go with 6950 2 Gb / 560Ti 1 GB ?

@skud

Actually I don't require this much of processing power. But deal was so good, I had to go for this. Skud how was you chassis is it a dust magnet ?
My room is dusty So I am afraid of cleaning these chassis regularly.

My choices for chassis are
Corsair 600T
Corsair 400R
CM 690II advanced with USB 3.0

Any suggestions please ....

Actually my cabby is a negative air pressure one, so it does intake lots of dust, but all the entry points are covered by filters, so not much goes inside. Still I use my blower every week/fortnight to keep things under control.

Among your choices 400R looks good to me, but that's subjective. What's your budget btw? I think 600T costs more than the other two?
