What would be the PC for, I mean the use of the PC and would it be a complete config, incl UPS / Speaker and all that ?? or an upgrade ??

There is NO problem with SATA DVD RW drives, also there is NO performance increase either,

But the idea is as motherboards has limited SATA ports, and with ever growing broadband penetration in India, users would feel the need to upgrade or add more HDDs over the time of using the system.. So keeping SATA ports free would give u more upgrade flexibility in future as IDE HDDs are becoming obsolete

Sardarji at smc also deals in Razer products. Have him import one for you if he is willing

Could try the GO section at erodov i guess

With 790i SLi is it possible to make a Hexa SLi system using 3 9800GX2

Anyone cares to give a thought about it.

Sorry. It'll be for some gaming, internet surfing, entertainment & coding. My friend's a new student of IT. He needs it.

AMD Athlon X3 8450 @ Rs. 5500 /- + VAT
Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H @ Rs. 4400 /- + VAT

Is is really X3 or a typo?

They aren't available at IT wares

Thanks a ton.

if ur frnd doesnt plan to oc then he can go for Intel Original G31/G33 mobos.

OK, thanks. I'll let him know.

Why not,

See if running 2 quad under Dual soket mother board uses term 8 Core, then certainly 3 way SLI with 3 9800GTX2 would mean 6 graphics core

@Narangz

YUP, it is X3 8450 which retails i8n Kolkata at Rs. 5500/- + VAT

 

[narangz]

Alright thanks. I'll start a hunt for these two.

BTW- Is it Athlon or Phenom?

simple advice: wait for nehalem. Price cuts will soon follow. Just till september. Then you can get a cool DDR3 based next gen system instead of a crappy one right now.

Whats your current configuration ?

right now i have got
AMD 3500+
ASUS A8NE
BFG 7950GT OC
1GB RAM
160GB+500GB HARD DRIVE
SONY DVD-R/RW
Antec Sonata chasis

I wanted to upgrade coz the current PC of mine will be taken to my dad's office..
