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:Gaming, Multimedia, Litecoin mining

I am contemplating an upgrade. Since I intend to only upgrade the processor, motherboard, gpu and get a decent smps, 35 k rupees(Indian) with an additional 5 k that I might add, I think should be suffice. What should be my best course of action?
I think an intel cpu (at least an i5 - ivy or...
Why don't you wait until the end of july coz that is when bulldozer is expected to release?.....you would have a much better idea then as to what processor Intel/AMD would offer the best bang for the buck. AMD processors are going to be a lot cheaper according to an official statement released...
No mate, I ain't quite confused at all and that is why I stated SB-E......Ivybridge is gonna be built on a 22nm fab process with 3d transistor technology and my prognosis is that it will be a significant improvement over SB or even SB-E for that matter that is even the mainstream counter...
We"ll have to wait and see now, won't we?......AMD has an uphill task ahead when it comes to CPUs but it is doing well with the GPU part and the llano is a very smart product. I am just holding off my cpu upgrades for now depending on how it all plays out......I would however not get an SB- E...
The new 990 fx mobos are touted to have support for a quad SLI or a Quadcrossfire set up. However I wonder as to what games are you going to play on such an expensive setup?.... as we are still relegated to playing 5 year old console ports or poorly optimized ports with heavy system...
I concur. Llano is geared specifically for the laptop market where it brings viable performance and superior battery life compared to SB. We shall have to wait and see how Bulldozer actually performs and I only hope it doesn't turn out be a dud like Duke Nukem Forever. Unfortunately for AMD even...
On the contrary, Llano is doing extremely well where it was targeted - The laptop segment and most llano shipments are already sold out. The performance and battery life has actually exceeded expectations as it is supposedly nothing more than a Phenom 2 paired with a superior IGP.......Bulldozer...
Assuming I use only a single ati 6850 will the fsp smps be suffice (I have a quad core phenom 2) or would you still advocate going in for the corsair one even if it's costlier?....I really don't mind paying 4.1 k if it is good enuf for crossfire. Do forgive me for asking so many questions but...
