1.Got a AMDLlano 3850 proc on a Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD3H for 13200/-.
2.Got a Zotac GTX560 for 10,000/- (Btw...Ti is retailing for 11,500/- at Nehru place... would have got it but slightly beyond...
I was all ready to go out and buy AMD but now out comes the latest issue of Digit...:p with latest graphics card trials...
Best buy in my price range was Galaxy GTX560 costing 10,290/-
I guess I can use this card with AMD proc-mobo combo as suggested ?? No compatibility problem?
Many thanks, gentlemen...After your advice I have decided to go for HD6850...
upgrading PSU doesnt look like an option right now for me. I know zebronics doesn't have much good reputation but my PSU has been working without any problems.
regarding processor/mobo..in current market AMD PII...

Rules of supply and demand are fairly simple to understand, and the root of piracy lies in that.
PRICE
Why is it that a high end, grade A, 2DVD set of a game like GTA4 can retail for 499 in India on release but Mass Effect 2 has to be 999 and Dragon Age has to be 1299? Obviously, someone is not...
Strong views...strongly expressed, too...however...
1. All 'Terminator' films are 'popcorn' films, if by that you mean, films which are to be enjoyed for their form rather than their content, or films which have little intellectual/emotional content, but lots of eye-candy to be enjoyed...
Funny People-4/10
A serious film about stand-up comedians. Some of the funny parts were really funny, but not enough to redeem the film. Too long and dragging, imho. You can give it a miss.
Zombieland-8/10
Hilarious! A complete gory laugh riot! Thoroughly enjoyable...
Think 'Shawn of the Dead', genrewise... but the comparison ends there. Had a lot of fun watching this one...highly recommended.
MODERN WARFARE 2 FTW!
I just got Prisoner 627...WOW! Can this game be any awesomer?
Those who have been there will agree with me, i'm sure. Those who havnt...well... No spoilers...
Okay...I am officially declaring myself a Tarantino fanboy.
Inglourious Basterds-15/10
Not a perfect movie by any means. Set out to find faults with it and you will find many...plot loopholes, unanswered questions...whatever...
But... WHAT an awesome ride! Unforgettable characters...
Got this from D2D...Machinarium, I'm playing it between MW2 levels to avoid finishing it too soon...:D
If you havnt played it, you dont know what you're missing...gorgeous, gorgeous game...
Edit- sorry for the full size screenshot, I felt it would do justice to the incredible graphics in...
