Need Help For A Gaming PC Under 100-120K.

[gameranand]

3570k vs 3770k gaming performance same. check benchmarks
ever heard of a 120 hz monitor peasant. Dual gpu setup benefit with that.

1. 3770K performs better in game specially when you are using High End cards. Also PCs are not just for games, it would be unwise to completely ignore one aspect of the PC for a particular component like GPU.
2. Yes I heard about it and its good, mainly used for 3D setup IIRC. But again going that way would increase OP's budget considerably.

I suggest you to do just one thing. Sit and calculate the cost of all the components that OP wants, if you are unsure then refer to post 1 of this thread, if then also you can fit everything in that budget then I am more than happy because you are a guardian angel for OP for suggesting such a damn fine RIG. If not please don't confuse him, someone is going to invest 120K of his or his parent's hard earned money for god sake. Respect that fact.

^ we cant.. **************************************

 

[ASHISH65]

OP has that much money not like u peasant .......................................

no offence, but please stop calling that,not everybody has money to spend on gaming rig.

 

[The Incinerator]

Everything worth the money has been suggested , It OP who want to confuse himself the most. I dont know what his objective is when all has been said and done to death. He just wants increase the post counts? Is it? He goes from Z77 to X79 to LGA 1156 to 2011. If even after so many posts he is confused with the primary core components I wonder our efficiency here.

OP please post the RIG that you have decided till now and the components you are confused with. Do some google too yourself it will help all out here.

 

[anirbandd]

how would that help if every random guy comes in and starts shooting off their own config??

OP is a beginner, he is bound to get confused...

you guys are damn efficient, but yes, the op should do this too

OP please post the RIG that you have decided till now and the components you are confused with. Do some google too yourself it will help all out here.

dual gpu set up:
cpu: 3570k for 13k
gpu : 2 7950 sapphire for 46k
psu : corsair hx 750 for 7.5k
case : corsair 400r for 5k
ram : 1600mhz 2*4gb for 3k
mobo : gigabyte ud3h z77 or asrock z77 extreme6 for 13k
cpu cooler : cm evo 212 for 2k
hdd : within 5k
monitor : Samsung 23 inch LED - S23A700D Monitor for 19k
mouse : for 2k
keyboard : any generic will do for 500rs
headsets : ttesport/steelseries for under 3k.
all these for under 120 grands.
i think op can get better pricing on these parts than what i have mentioned.
but pls dont recommend 3770k over 3570k havent u checked benchmarks dear. pls dont misguide people into buying 3770k.
and 120 hz is better than 60hz any day. Now dont confuse the little guy peasants.

 

[The Incinerator]

Thats not the way how you post the config.

Post with complete clarity the Prices then the Exact Total. Flaming wont help anyone out here.

just any mouse under 2k with side buttons would be ok. ttesport/steelseries have gud headphones for under 3k. 850 is overkill for this setup get 750W psu. pick the corsair hx series(modular less cable clutter). 3570k can handle almost any game out there but get a gud overclocking mobo ud5 will be my first choice since it supports offset mode for overclocking( multi gpu setups require cpu power so gpu bottlenecking can be avoided). Roughly all this can cover up under ur budget.



if u have any experience of runnig multi gpu setups then speak. Going through benchmarks posted on review sites do not give u complete picture. 2 7950s are very powerful gpus and 3570 at stock on bf3 multiplayer will be a bottleneck. I myself have 670s sli and cpu running at 4.7ghz to fully utilise the gpus at 1080p.

At the start of the thread I was suggesting a cf config , but OP Chose Other Config and I gave up.

@varun004 I understand your situation
You have an awesome rig. Anandtech runs even 650ti on i7!! Its because he doesnt even want a 1 fps b Haeshil Sharma, go bottlenecking in any scenario.

Harshil sharma, go check tomshardware cpu hierarchy chart. He considers all i5s class one cpus and fx 8350 is class 2 and competes and burns by an i3. The situation maybe different in the future but at that time even fx 8350 may be redundant. And amds unlocked fx 8350 is
aalready clocked at 4.2ghz and most wont be overclocking over 4.6ghz and thats exactly how much you can overclock partially locked i5s( leaving blck at stock)

+ most games dont use more than 4 cores and many prog. Languages cant recognize hyperthreading!!

Therefore there will be a good amount of difference between i5-3570k and i7 3930k but not quad core i7s + 1ht core= 1/3 actual cote so for ~ 1.2 core you can pay 5k but for for 4 cores + additional bandwith benefits you cant pay 15k?

And tom does not recommend any i7 except i7 3930k and below that is i5 3570k.

Therefore stop recommending fx except if budget does not permit i5 with a suitable motherboard for gaming rig.

Guys, guys, guys,.. Listen.
The primary reason for me to be confused is that I cant decide whether to get above 60fps in every game, or a smoother gameplay. That being said, I am still confused between single and multi-gpu setup. The other components are pretty much confirmed. So, there is no need to think about them.
And, please dont regard me as a spammer. I just need my doubts cleared.

 

[anirbandd]

just post what you have finalised till now...

 

[rock2702]

If you can afford it get the gtx 670 sli, you won't regret it.Probably you might have to wait for some time before nvidia releases sli profile for a newly launched game.60fps is guranteed in 90% of games with 670 sli.Just get an atx mobo, 850w psu and a full tower cabinet like phantom.

 

[vaibhavs800]

The simple thing is for just 60fps your budget is too much. An i5+ 7870 is enough for fhd 60fps gaming and a hd 7970 is best. Period.
There is no value in getting i7 if your primrary motive is gaming.
And a better ram and mobo wont even give you one fps. Nor is noise going to be super low with corsair 400r.
The budget you have is for enthusiasts who like one of the best components. If you want value in your pc, you cant without switching to sli, sb-e or eyefinity.
The first 2 will help in future proofing your build and third will enhance your experience. You wont notice if inside your pc is an asrock or asus. Thousands of pcs are using extreme 4 without trouble and you dont need extra sata 6 gbps ports as you dont have six ssd.

I think enough suggestions have been given to you. Think hard before buying that do you need best performance or best value but spending on good motherboard and cabinet wont give you either. I am not saying get dirt cheap ones but after a point there are very minisicle gains. Until and unless you want to overclock to 5ghz to gain bragging rights.

hey dude what's the so damn good about more than 60 fps??? u know limitations of human eye??

There is nothing good about more than 60fps on a 60hz monitor although a 120hz, 120fps combo is silky smooth.

If something gives you more than 60fps right now, it wont in the future. But even 7950 cf cannot max crysis 3 on fhd so you know where we specs are heading.

This thread isnt going anywhere for the last 2-3 pages.
I would still insist on my config in post#33

Thats exactly what I was expecting. Sacrificing every other component just for CF setup. Now don't get me wrong but I would like to point some mistakes
1. OP is spending 100K+ to get a i5....now thats really great.
2. Corsair HX 750 is good enough but when you are going to overclock everything to chunk out every bit of performance in the long run then it might give some problems, again I am not very sure about that.
3. HDD within 5K...seriously a 120K without SSD and a WD Green edition which has really terrible speeds when you run OS.
4. Any KB of 500 INR....I mean come on at this budget we have to get a Gaming KB. I am using one and I can easily tell the difference.
Headphones - Haven't listened to them but for truly enjoy games you need a 5.1 surround sound Headphone, be it Virtual or Real.

As for pricing, I am sure OP can not get better prices than what you have suggested as they are lower datum. At most places they are priced higher.

I second that with some modifications that I suggested him.


As for 120 Hz gaming. Its more or less a Myth really. I mean you need a 7970 CF at least to get 120+ fps for most games and that too is not sure as games that are coming nowadays are quite resource hungry.
