where to get DDR3 RAM prices ??
i saw a thread that DDR3 is going to get as cheap as DDR2 !! is it ??

Ready to pay Rs. 22,880.00 for 2X1GB? Then, Prime.

It will definitely get cheap but I think slowly.

Prices here are much cheaper: *www.yantraonline.in/Product.asp?SubCatId=60

These prices are now comparable to what Corsair DDR2 8500 Dominator used to cost 6 months back. So we can forecast what prices to expect from DDR3 in the next 6 months.

If not into gaming then the config is very gud. I would only suggest to go for 9-cell battery (if the budget allows) as bigger battery is always a better option.

9 cell is battery which u can change afterwards any time. They change it from 6 cell to 9 cell or 14 cell battery and will charge more for it.

^^ all the products u mentioned are over priced. . 8200 is around 8k . 9600GT is at 10k while 8800GT 512mb is at 13.5k .i wud prefer a e8400 over q6600 . but if u're work involves 3ds max etc.. q6600 may be better.

its future proof only on paper.
When it comes to real world, 8400 is way too gud. It can be oced to 4hz nd upwards nd performs much higher than Q6600 when at 4~4.5 Ghz. And it generates much less heat. Quad cores will be better than a much higher clocked dual core only in case of highly optimised and processor heavy tasks which dun depend on core clock. :)

I might say E8400 has brighter future than Q6600:D

Athlon X2 4000+ and Asus M2n-MX

will a 690G chipset instead of m2n-mx justify the price increase ?

The E 2160 seems better but it surelly costs more.
4000+ and M2N MX: 2.3k+2.3k=4.6k
E2160+XFX 630i U: 2.6k+3.2k=5.8k
Gigabyte 780G and X2 4000+ : 4.6k+2.3k=6.9k

The 780G mobo has PCIE 2.0 and supports Phenoms with AM2+ socket and also supports DDR2 1066 modules in dual channel. Its backward compatible with older AM2 X2s. And it has the best IGP ever nd is DX 10.0 supported. Its IGP performs even better than 7300GS.
So the IGP of 630i[7150] or 690G[X1250] has no chance.

U can get the 780G mobo with a low end proccy like 4000+ and later get a better proccy, when phenoms price gets to bottom. Even now the phenom has hit 7k mark. And get some ATI's HD 3xxx card to get some added boost in 3D rendering performance.
even the 2.2k HD 3450 is neck to neck with 8500GT when used in 780G.
