one more thing i think POV is good company and so is EVGA ...and both are available with tirupati ...u should keep a tab on prices about gtx260 ..EVGA plain gtx260 cost about $289 in us ...which is also the price of sapphire HD4870 ..so it should cost about 17-18k ....if u buy a evga u will not be disappointed ...evga is much better than XFX.

@KPower Mania
but which among the two is better??? I suppose the GDDR3 enjoys an upper hand in comparison with the GDDR2.
I want to buy a card (preferrably the one with GDDR3) which wouldn't attract my attention for atleast the coming year and a half. In that respect which graphics soln is good???
Finally does the MSI P35 Neo-F mobo support GDDR3??

Thanks for your reply guys. I am ready to go with intel but my main concern is about upgrading. It will not be upgradable after 2 years, again i need to spend for mobo processor etc. But if i am ready to scarifice some performance today will it be possible to upgrade an AMD sytem after 2 years??? How much performace difference will be there with intel and amd system?

Theres no guarantee that AMD will not update their Socket in 2 years or so.As they upgrade their products so they will need to upgrade their sockets sometime later-could be 2yrs/5yrs or even less.So getting AMD will not give you any assurance of compatibllity.
And as for performance the difference in Intel and AMD are as much as hell and earth.Even dual core Intel can beat quad core AMD hands down.So its a smart idea to get the best now which will make you futureproof for atleast
2-3 yrs(yes,even P4 cpus are good for gaming as long as you have a descent graphic card
)So get the best now and don't think of the future.The next Intel product(Larabee) is breathing down on the neck of Nehalem.So get it(wolfdale/yorkfield) while its hot.

yus, true. GDDR3 is better
. Look at MSI and ASUS variants. Leave alone XFX . And regarding P35, it dosent concern wether it supports or not, AFA it has a PCI-e x16 any PCI-ex16 compatible card will run. But I wont confuse you with this and say "Yus, it supports GDDR3".@thelordrrulzzz
For you to decide things properly check this link*www.lynx-india.com/index.php?categoryID=934&show_all=yes
I do not know the genuinity of availability @lynx though lynx is good online point, but according to the quoted prices you can check local market or order from lynx.
About 8600GT there is not DDR3 version of 512 models all got 512MB DDR2,
but if u check the link I gave you will find HD3650 512MB DDR2 model of XpertVision and HD3850 and 9600GT of interest.
8600GT 256 MB DDR3 would be in 3.5K from MSI
any of the gfx card would be compatible, the compatibility is not in terms of DDR2/DDR3 but whether they are PCI Express 2.0 or like that. All of those cards are compatible
MSI P35 Neo-F supports DDR3 RAM( normal RAM not graphic RAM), not many mobos currently support DDR3 RAM
Go for 8600GT 256MBDDR3 version it would be good, and is better in work than 512MB DDR2 models.
Otherwise u got option of HD3850 512MB DDR3 in 5.5K and 9600GT also in same price.
But I will recommend HD3850 in the two which has 256-bit line.
@KPower, man that was awsome n full of humour reply heehe
@rahul dude you are thinking in good direction. I hope reading many of such other budget responses you can get your reply.
Still for your goodness giving u specs
MSI P35 Neo-F >> 5.5K(recommending because of its option of DDR3 RAM support) any other P35 based mobo is also good. Otherwise as KPower said for real 7.1HD audio get Asus P5Q-Deluxe mobo
2 sticks of 2GB RAM Transcend/Kingston >>3600(@1800 per stick) or get Corsair in 5K TWIN2X4096-6400C5
(2 X 2GB DDR2 800MhZ C5)
There is huge crunch in HDD price best VFM is WD 640GB in 3.5-3.6K so you need to decide HDD according to your budget.
Cabinet Coolermaster Elite 330 in 1.6-1.7K or CM690 in around 3.5K
CoolerMaster PSU 600W Extreme Power in 3.1K
Decide on price on GPU and proccy on your own, you are already intelligent I think as your demands are extreme, and would need to rethink and then ask for suggestions.
check specs n prices from this site *www.theitwares.com/index.htm

abbe tujhe toh 30k sab kuch loot lena hain. for the above mentioned things, you need to have a greater budget.

ASUS P5Q Deluxe - 12.5k --> *www.asus.com/products.aspx?modelmenu=1&model=2257&l1=3&l2=11&l3=709&l4=0

I just suggested the components which were fit for his recommandations. He needs a good IGP and a HD4850
. Why the hell does he need both ? He needs crossfire support and 7.1 Chanel audio + 4GB RAM and 500GB+ HDD in 30k. Now tell me if I was wrong or not OR if what I suggested was wrong.

I am currently using the Logitech Ex90 Cordless Desktop and its very good. It works on a 2.4GHz Wireless Frequency. It uses two AA batteries to power up. I use 2100 mAh Uniross Rechargeable batteries. The set costed me about 1.2k before 8-9 months

Thanks KPower Mania
When i checked in npithub.com , its 1250/-
*www.npithub.com/product/detail.php?pcatid=22&prod_id=69433
how come? is it getting costlier or what??
how long wil the batteries last?

^^Depends on what batteries you use and their power. I use 2100 mAh batteries and they last 4 days easily (My PC is on 24x7). The set dosent come with batteries but my dealer gave me two 1200 mAh Duracells and they were eaten up in 1 and half day . So I suggest that you spend some money on a good set of batteries too .
About, pricing refer this --> *www.theitwares.com/keyboards/keyboards.htm
Its still 1.2k.
^^Dont forget to get rechargeable batteries no matter which cordless set you buy (its a different story if the set isnt powered by batteries, but i dunno such product).
