Alright guys, listen up. I need help and i need it from u all. Its been nearly 4 months wen i started asking dis and still no solution in sight. Asked Agent 001 but he has probably become too haughty.
*
I am an enthusiast who is yet to stand up on his own feet, so for now i am still dependent on my parents. What does that mean? It means whatever i wanna buy, i need their permission and their financial help.
Whats dis all about?
Well, simply about upgrading. I last upgraded on June 2004. Its partly an enthusiasm nd emotional attachment dat i want to upgrade my computer. And partly since my existing rig has started saying “Asta La Vista Baby” / “Bon Voyage”
My existing setup here it is in a nutshell:--
1> Prescott P4 2.80E GHz with HT processor
2> Hynix 512MB DDR RAM running at 400MHz
3> Intel D865GBF Motherboard sporting latest BIOS update released on 2006
4> Samsung 80GB SATA HDD running at 7200rpm
This time it will be my 2nd upgrade. So i wanna add a little xtra rather than the usual bells n whistles. I crave for:--
1> Quad Core processor (to be a bit future-proof)
2> Capable Motherboard for the above
3> i want to keep my HDD, so the motherboard shud support SATA interface
4> If n only if possible i’d like to keep my RAM (DDR interface)
5> Graphics Card coz this time it must play HD content smoothly nd needless to mention handle all my video rendering equally well. U no making a DVD Video. Plus if i ever install Vista, it shud run smooth. Specially bcoz if i have to leave home sumday to pursuit my goals, my parents shud not face ne problems or hiccoughs.
6> Oh and if i have to change the RAM then which make to buy and which model
I need to upgrade in the most inexpensive n cost-effective way. So do post the prices of the individual parts. Also if nebody interested to buy my DDR RAM module if i have to change it, plz do write here.
It will be really nice nd highly appreciated if u can suggest a way to buy the proccy, motherboard and graphics card within 20K
