Basic Guide Purchase a New System

[Choto Cheeta]

Also , need to buy a Photo printer for domestic use. Budget under 5-5.5 k

1st of all ask the local vendor how much he takes for re-filling these Inkjet and Deskjet printers are cheap but their original cartiges are really expensive as expensive as the printer it self

so things u need to find out from local dealer, which printer is best to use with amkate and such non branded cheap cartiges and which is easy to re-fill

Just a quickie, M2N-VM DVI has only one IDE slot.. they all expect us to own STAT HDD by now

hey man , all new mobos hav only 1 IDE slot now........SATA is becoming d standard for secondary storage.

 

[dOm1naTOr]

And there are lots of sata DVDRW also So i think one IDE is enuf. And all mobos now has atleast 4 sata connectors. And enthusiastic mobos have 6 or 8 sata ports.

which wud be the best combo among these:

Pentium Dual Core T2330 - 1.6GHz 1MB L2 533MHz fsb + X3100
Core Duo T2300E - 1.6GHz 667MHz fsb + GMA950
Turion X2 TL-58 - 1.9GHz 1600MHz HT 512kb + 512kb L2 + nVidia 7150M

none of these wud be used for gaming.only for watching movies,reading e-books,surfing , and bits of programming.
also how much of a performance gain shall i get with the following combo:
C2D T5450 + X3100.

i think the T2330 + X3100 sud suffice my needs.wudnt it?

try making ram 800mhz if you can afford.
the system is perfectly balenced, but I would say go get a dx 10.1 AMD card if you game on windoz

Any news on Phenom 9700,AMD 790 FX based mobo that i told abt earlier and 3870 X2 in India???

 

[hellgate]

@hellgate i wd hav gotten a tl58+7150m

Bought the Comapq C739TU 2day.
got it 4 33k all incl 1GB ram (512 + 512).
got benches for both T2300 + GMA950 and T2330 + X3100 and the T2330 was a lot better than the T2300 even though it has a lower fsb.also the T2300 didnt hav x86-x64 instructions but the T2330 had.
as of now i'll be installing Vista Ultimate x64.
hope the lappy performs upto m expetations.

[MetalheadGautham]

[j1n M@tt]

hey guys, plz mention d source. I couldn't find them with d RP dealer at ma place, or at IT Wares

 

[Pathik]

@hellgate ye t2330+x3100 is obviously better than t2300 +gma950 as it is a santa rosa platformer.. But tl58+7150m wd hav been better IMO. If u wd hav gotten a t5450 then it wd hav been different.

 

[hellgate]

^^^ didnt hav the money to go 4 T5450.it wud hav cost me bout 4-5k xtra.
also didnt buy the AMD cuz i just didnt feel like going in for a AMD based lappy.

 

[MasterMinds]

and which sound card is the best buy under 2K for gaming 5.1

 

[rollcage]

Tell me a motherboard + Processor I shall go for,
not hight end, but AMD X2 4000+ or Intel Equivalent will do. .
the motive is to save money & put 8600GT DDR3 latteron on this machine.
Are those onboard MB good enough or not, which one is more compatible for that card.

Why 6800GT DDR3 ?

 

[juggler]

maybe he typed 8600 gt as 6800gt by mistake
