Kerala, Trivandrum. I used newegg for reference.

My friend needs a PC for under 700 dollars. (Rs ~30,000) I thought of getting him this setup : How is this motherboard? *www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131595 EDIT : He decided on going for a Radeon 4670 512 MB. We both agreed that the rig can be upgraded at a...

Very true ;-) Awesome site and awesome forums. I will be recommending this place to my friends :) Thanks again to everyone. ~ falling

Thanks asigh :) I once trying to get the entire rig under 50,000. If there is availability problems for the HD 5850, then I could go for the 5770.Without the 5850 and CM Hyper 212, and instead a 5770, I should get the entire rig around Rs. 42,700 :D Again, I'm hoping I can discount/bargain for...

Thanks a lot guys :) I won't be able to get the rig now, but I will place an order for the parts. That way I can buy them when I get the money. I can't buy right now because my brother is going abroad so we have a slight financial strain. Will be able to buy around March or April. Kinda late...

Thanks vickybat! The total cost along with the Hyper 212 is Rs. 51300. Now all I have to do is buy all this :) I'll try asking my brother's friend who is in Bangalore to get the parts. And another - he is pretty good at bargaining. Shops do sometimes give discounts if you buy a lot of parts...

My current monitor supports 1280 * 720. Its pretty sucky (a BENQ T52WA), so thinking of an upgrade next year or something. I'd love to game on higher resolutions like 1600 or 1920. With certain graphics lowered down ofcourse (like HDR,shadows,extra physics etc) once I get a decent monitor...

Thanks. Okay this is my finalized rig. Please rate on a scale of 1 to 10. Core i5 750 2.66 Ghz @ 10k Intel DP55WB @ 6.3k Western Digital Caviar Blue 620GB @ 3.2k PowerColour HD5770 1GB GDDR5 V2 @ 9.9k OR PowerColour HD5850 1GB GDDR5 @ 16.4k Corsair 4GB DDR3 1600MHz C9 Titanium @ 5.8k...

I really liked the dp55wb. But does it support 1600 mhz ddr 3 ram?? I'll try and buy it if I can. Do you know of any reliable,trust worthy retailers in Kerala, Trivandrum?? EDITED

vickybat : *www.anandtech.com/bench/default.aspx?p=109&p2=102 You are correct. The X4 965 has higher power consumption... The i5 might be expensive but in the long term, it'll be better when the electricity bills come. Okay. Can you recommend an awesome Motherboard that can be used...

I'm kinda confused - people told me to go for the i5. But since the i9 is supposed to come out, won't (Intel is know for changing architecture drastically) most of their products have lesser support? Won't they be outtdated? AMD is known to support their stuff for a decent amount of time without...

After a few more recommendations, I'm thinking of using the cheaper Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H motherboard instead of the MSI 790GX-G65 AM3. Thisand the X4 965 B.E will together cost around Rs. 14.5k. Not a bad deal. The more money I save, the more I can use for other parts. Should I finalize...

OMG! I love the Processor, mobo, ram and graphic card!! The cooler master is also pretty decent! In fact the whole rig is awesome.:-D So, I'm going to finalize this... any last moment suggestions? I'm aware that no PC can last for 5 years without being improved on, but it should do for me :)...

Well, I thought of getting the Asus P7P55D-E PRO, Core i5 750 2.66 GHZ, Powercolour (or Sapphire)Radeon 5770 1GB GDDR5,Cooler Master 690 (or the 690 II Advanced) and 4 GB DDR3 RAM. The Corsair hx620 is about Rs. 6.4k and the Corsair TX 650 is about RS.6.8k... so I don't know about which one to...

Hi, I'm trying to build an energy efficient, decent computer. I don't want to do another upgrade any time soon, so the rig should be able to last atleast 3-5 years. I do not require a keyboard,mouse,speakers,monitor for the time being. I don't want to overclock because I've read that it...
