Another i7 Rig Configuration. Need the BLESSINGS :) of our in house experts.

[amitash]

For 90k dont consider amd at all...Try this:

1.i7-920--15k
2.Msi x58 pro--12k
3.the ram you listed at 6.6k is fine
4.same monitor for 13.5k
5.4k cabby
6.corsair tx750--8.2k
7.razer death adder--2.5k
8.k/b for 500
9. this will leave you with ~28k left which you can spend on a gtx295 for an unbeatable config

As for those who say phwnom 2 955 OC will beat i7-920, fyi you can OC an i7-920 too...and really in every other case the i7's are leagues ahead pf the p2's so i dont think its worth it really if you have a 90k budget...and since the i7's have twice as many threads as the p2's, future games will run much better and the core i7's perf will keep increasing over time whereas the p2's will not increase much.

And intel have also tackled the upgradability issue, for those who say p2's can easily be upgradable whereas intel keeps giving new sockets, fyi the current lga1366 sockets on the x58 mobos have support for the upcoming intel westmere processors (4 cores 8 threads or 6 cores 12 threads) so its upgradable too.

AS for gaming u dont need complete powerful processor , as Phenom 2 955 is over all good for gaming , mainly the GPU is fully advantage for gaming


Getting the rig which comes with 100% full performance is not think of gamers or geeks , many of the gamers still have more & more money to buy even corei7 extreme but they never buy it , still many of them are using E8400/E8500 still overclocking getting Enthusiast ..

IMO i say get good OCing processor may be its INTEL or AMD get fun on the OCing & tweaking

SAVE MONEY so u buy another Rig in the future !!

Thats the passion of Geek & gamers

hey dude invest on graphics cards for gaming. Decent CPU is good enough.
If there is no budget limitations then of course you can build a super computer for yourself just to play games.
keeping in mind about the budget and gaming, focus more on GPU.
1 lack is awesome and big budget, but there is always scope for better. So watch out.

 

[damngoodman999]

Yup u r right a_k_s_h_a_y

Even Intel Core 2 Quad Q 6600 is much better to play games , As many of them think Corei7 only the best for gaming ? thats really Wrong !

Corei7 best in the WorkStation process !!

OCed 4Ghz intel core2Quad Q9550 & AMD phenom2 940 which solid beast for todays gaming rig

Thats why i said "for a budget of 90k"...if the op wanted to save, then of course core i7 is not for him.

Why we all are including OP ignoring good sound solution for machine of such a generous budget. Or let me know if he already own the sound setup.

Nanoprocessors will come in 2015 according to roadmaps, once the 16nm fabrication process hits the world.

The Nano and Micro naming has nothing to do with the size these days. It's just a name that has stuck. You could call the current processors Nanoprocessors as the fabrication is 45/65 nm.

That is not the Classified board. I contacted Itwares and he is giving E758 at same 19k but doesnt have E759 and claims noone has it in India.

Kindly give me contact no or shop address Phoenix Mumbai.

Between , who is kmd ? Can he bring CAS7 Mushkin ran for less than 10k, other make will also work. Please someone reply esp about Classified.

^ Head over to techenclave. Join the forums and go to Dealers paradise. U will find a new world of tech buying... far removed from the na na ... of the Nehru place.

Digit should have a dealers section asap. God knows why it doesnt.

Yep, you will find KMD there...you can get 6gigs of OCZ RAM 1600Mhz at 7-7-7-23 for only 6.5k from him.

@amit & shadowfax: Great price bro but techenclave is down. Any other way to contact him ? His phone/mobile no or shop address.

Amit, any chance to get Evga Classified in India ?

Somewhere I read from Kmd it will cost 35k. I can bear 25k.

And please reply to my i7 thread, need your valuable advice since you have the same config as mine.

 

[amitash]

^if you cant find the classified or its too expensive, then i think the evga x58 SLI is the next best thing for u since you like OCing.

 

[arnold991]

thx for a reply amitash.

So does that mean techenclave is the only way to contact kmd ?
What does kmd stand for ?

 

[amitash]

I think you can contact him on erodov forums also...KMD stands for his username: Katmandude

 

[arnold991]
