Amd or Intel combo (Urgent)

[soyab0007]

I am getting
Intel G620+ Gigabyte H61M-D2-B3 + corsair 2gb ddr3 @ Rs6000
Amd athlon x2 250 + Asus m4n68t + dynet 2gb ddr3 @ Rs4000

amd combo 7 months old and intel 2 months used..

which one would be better in terms of performance and price..

I say if you got money go with Intel one.

Reason: Performs better than AMD Counterpart. Later you can upgrade to a i52400 without changing board. Cosair Rams are better than Dynet imo.

even if u r getting the amd rig please avoid the dynet ram kingston/Transcend/corsair/gskill is much better

Intel one.

Go for the Intel Combo. Else go for a new AMD combo, i.e:
* AMD Athlon-II X3-440 -- 3k
* Asus M4N68T/ any AM3/AM3+ mobo -- 2.5k
* Corsair/GSkill 2GB DDR3 RAM -- 0.7k
TOTAL ---- 6.2k

But still the Intel Combo above looks much better.

money is an issue as well...
what if i combine my gt 240 ddr5 with amd combo

how it will be in performance wise?

 

[sukesh1090]

if you are ready to spend 6k,then my vote goes to saswat's suggestion.if you don't have then go with the amd dual core one and avoid that dynet ram.according to me athlon should be able to handle that card.

 

[soyab0007]

will not upgrade for the next 2 years
maximum I can spend 5.5k

 

[soyab0007]

finally decided to go with amd processor
now i am getting 5months old msi 880gm e41 @ 3000rs
how is the service and quality of msi board?

Doesn't support BD. So not recommended if you have plan to upgrade in future.

@soyab0007 if you can spend 5.5k then I seriously think u should save 500 more and go for the intel config. It will give you much better performance, also after a year you will get a current gen SB for dirt cheap and then u can upgrade since the board is H61 based. With AMD you will be stuck with older architecture processors(Athlon II and Phenom II are already last generation). Also the power consumption of the SB procys are lesser than the AMD cpus, so the power savings will more than compensate for the Rs500/- more you are paying now

 

[soyab0007]

my bad
that guy already sold the intel combo..
now i go with amd proccy and msi board
how is the msi board service and quality compared to gigabyte??
here i have removed the asus option bcoz of poor rma handled by rashi..

which board would be better?
msi 880gm e41 @ 3000rs
gigabyte m68mt s2 @ 2350rs

MSI one is better among the two if going for 2nd hand option.
