Thanks for the advice @gta5
Did some research and you and @bssunilreddy are absolutely right. GPU prices are insane right now. Will wait till later this year to do the upgrade.
Thanks @bssunilreddy
Would the suggested rig work well with a dual monitor setup? I only intend to game on one monitor, the other screen will be for productivity/PS4.
Also, I intent to use my current AOC 23" monitor right now and will be getting the second monitor in April (probably a 27"...
Hello all! 5 years ago, I built my first gaming PC with the help of everyone on this forum and now, I turn to you once again. My current PC configuration is listed below the questionnaire.
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid...
Hi guys, due to an unexpected budget cut I've had to make a few compromises and revise my configuration. Would really appreciate your feedback on this revised version -
AMD FX 8350 4GHz @ 12k
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 @ 7K
GSkill RipjawX 8GB X 1 1600 MHz CL10 @ 4.5K
Toshiba/ WB Blue 1TB 7200 RPM HDD...
Do you mean these two?
Just out of curiosity, why not the Sapphire 7970 OC With Boost 3GB for 19,600? Sure, I sacrifice a bit of power, but save almost 4k (with which I can invest in an SSD).
Need your opinion on which card is best in terms of performance/price.
Gigabyte 7970 OC 3GB Windforce - 23,800
Gigabyte GTX770 OC 2GB Windforce - 23,800
Sapphire VaporX 7970 Ghz 3GB - 22,000
Sapphire 7970 OC With Boost 3GB - 19,600
Gigabyte GTX770 OC 4GB - 26,800
For a feature by feature...
I'll definitely check for international warranty before making the decision.
Found Gigabyte GTX 770 OC edition with Windforce for $400. I checked the benchmarks and it performs better than the 7970 Ghz edition. What do you guys think?
Here's the link to the product page on newegg -...
I checked with the dealers you mentioned Harshil and 7970 is either out of stock or overpriced. I'm contemplating buying the graphics card from the US and having a friend bring it over to India. I found Saphire 7970 VapourX on newegg for $370...that's around 22,000.
Now this may seem like a...
Everybody i have talked to in Nehru Place is quoting similar or higher prices. The reason they are giving is the recent hike in the dollar rates.
Also, I checked with SMC International and Gigabyte 7970 OC is out of stock (even though their website lists it as available). Is there any...
This is a quote that i got from a dealer at Nehru Place. What do you guys think? I'm in talks with a few other dealers as well and will go with the one who gives the best quote -
AMD FX 8350 4GHz (12.5k)
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 - 7.5k
Corsair 1600Mhz 8GB - 4.6k
Toshiba 1TB 7200 RPM HDD - 4.3k...
I'll be sitting on my bed, around 4 feet away from the PC. Will most probably use a wooden table to place my keyboard and mouse. Will that be a problem?
Edit: I'll also be needing an UPS. Any suggestions?
Hi all, so I've finally saved up for this rig and plan to make the purchase within this week. For those of you who're reading the thread for the first time, the config are as follows -
What I'd like to know is if this is still the best rig in my budget (70k), or are there any...
I'd love to, but as I'll be sitting atleast 5 feet away from my TV/monitor when I game I don't see a way I can incorporate a wired keyboard and mouse into my rig.
Just saw that the GTX 7 series has been released, what do you guys think about the GTX 770? I think it's about 4k more than the 7970,is the increased price worth the increased performance?
Do I need it in my rig? I'll ofcourse need to made adjustments to accommodate the extra 4k.
