Finally i have managed to build the system (well the shop guy built it :) ). I am running on an i7 without GPU and rendering rocks already. I have made up my mind to buy GTX 560 Ti 2gb version (want faster renders!). Currently i can find it available on golchhait.com (Zotac), techshop.in...

@The Incinerator Thank you :) @Chaitanya Yes the 660 is better gaming card at similar price but it seems that it gives less performance in rendering than 560Ti because nvidia decided people should buy more quadros lol (this is as far as i know please feel free to correct me :) ) @Cilus I would...

I found Zotac 560 Ti 2gb on golchhait.com for 15K! Has any one bought something from there? also can any one please tell me what is the general process that is followed if any warranty problem arises? Will i have to contact the seller or is there a service center (for zotac)?

Thank you :) i ordered corsair vengeance 8gb 1600mhz ram (along with Caviar blue and PSU). It seems cash on delivery is not possible in my location so i paid online. Now i am waiting for them to ship :-D The asus graphic card looks good but what does the availability status 'Pre-Order' mean...

Finally, i have ordered i7 3770 (at 18.9K), 21.5 inch Samsung monitor, Dvd writer, Keyboard+mouse and coolermaster 370 cabinet (USB 3.0 version). I am still enquiring about the motherboard possibly will get it locally. Now i am thinking of buying ram, hdd and psu online For HDD i will get...

Hmm, is the 500W power supply enough for the config? In that case i will get 500W Also i am thinking of getting a single 8gb ram instead of 2 x 4gb... will the single 8 gb perform slower because of dual channel? I was thinking that the max ram limit for motherboard is 32gb (4x8) so why not get...

Indeed 17k is too much for 560Ti... (is actually 18k on itwares :shock:) The problem is that i want graphic card with as much ram as possible (as i want to use it for rendering) and the newer GTX 6xx series cards seem to have lower rendering performance (though they are better for gaming). The...

Thank you :) I will go with corsair then. Here is what im thinking of buying Online buying for sure Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H77M-D3H Motherboard, 6.5K Ram: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB 1600Mhz, 3.3K PSU: Corsair CMPSU-600GUK 600 Watts PSU, 5.2k HDD: WD Caviar Blue 500 GB, 3.6K Will try local...

PSU problems The local shop doesn’t have corsair PSUs that i want to get. The owner has offered coolermaster ‘gold series’ psu which he says is high end (he hasn’t yet given its price as he said he will enqire suppliers). The only ‘gold’ psu i can find on cooler master website is the Silent Pro...

The rendering software uses Nvidia Cuda technology, so i cant use amd cards... but amd cards seem to be good at viewport performance (openGL)... I have read about a guy using amd card for viewport and nvidia for render *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_eek.gif. Unfortunately i...

indeed i would like to go with amd... but blender rendering program works with nvidia cuda technology :(. So no amd for me. But amd cards seem to have better open GL performance for the viewport... now i am searching for the head hitting wall emote if you know what i mean :)

Thank you for responding :). I was looking at Gigabyte GA-H77M-D3H Motherboard vs Gigabyte GA-H77-DS3H Motherboard: Compare Motherboards: Flipkart.com and was confused about taking micro atx or atx board. Gtx 560 Ti is described as 'dual slot' on geforce site, will it give any problems on the...

Hmm.. no responses yet :( I have contacted local shops.. looks like i can to buy some of the stuff from local (monitor, keyboard+mouse,dvd drive, cabinet, processor). However i cant get motherboard, hard disk and ram. I have to get them online. I have checked that flipkart can deliver to my...

1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.') Ans: 3D modeling and rendering using Blender, game development ( i...
