2x2GB DDR2 800MHz Transcend RAM
640GB WD Caviar HDD
Corsair VX450W PSU
CoolerMaster CM690 cabinet

but don't you think tht 9800gtx+ will be a better option graphic card wise and settling for 500gb or 350gb and investing for e8400 or e8500 processor would help...thnx for replying ....plz advise asap

Need opinion on Thermaltake M9.. I presently have Zeb Antibiotics. But since I bought Corsair TX650W, its all jumbled inside because of the long, thick cables... Plus there is gfx card, 2 hdds, 2 dvdrws, etc,etc its all messed up inside... not getting proper air flow inside... So im thinking to have new cabinet... since my comp table's cabinet compartment can only occupy maximum 49cm hight of chasis.... I've two options CM690 and THermaltake M9.. but if i go with CM, only 1 cm space lefts above cabinet and i can't then use any USB device or front panel audio... but thermaltake m9 has all the things at its front side...

But the main thing is- will it really offer significantly more space and better airflow inside cabinet as compared to Antibiotics ? if thats not so, im not eager to spend 4.5k..

(transparent only)

so just throw ur opinions...:)

Nope, HD4850 is more VFM. 9800GTX+ sure performs better but its just a difference of 2-3FPS at max. E8400 is a very good CPU but its much costlier than E7200.

Please suggest a CPU+Motherboard. Main purpose , web development and software development using visual studio, photoshop, dreamweaver and Adobe Flash designing. Budget 12-15K for cpu and mobo, or is it wise to go for a laptop?

@Sonicspeed and rajkumar_pb
So here is your AMD config for 23 k

Viewsonic 17" / 19" -- 7300/8200
AMD X2 4600+ -- 2700
Jetway 780 G motherboard -- 3100
2 GB DDR2 800 Mhz -- 1500
250 GB HDD -- 2400
Samsung DVD RW -- 1100
Zebronics Krrish Cabby -- 1100
Logitech Combo -- 700
Altec Lansing BXR 1121/VS2421 -- 1100/2200 (depending on your choice)

It comes for 22100 with 17" + VS421 and 23000 with 19" and VS421.
If u want, u can opt for BXR 1121 and change the mobo to a Biostar 780G chipset(if jetway not available).

Intel sux dude.... Hmm.. ASUS ? At 8k, ASUS P5Q or Pro...(I dont know ejjaktly)
But at 6k, MSI P45 Neo F is the best buy, comparing ASUS at 8k, for the same P45 chipset..

^^ any board from asus? how is INTEL DG33FB?
Click to expand...

That board is quite good. But it won't allow you to overclock. If you can ignore it, its a good, stable board.

For ASUS, look at P5Q.

ASUS P5Q and Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 = 14-14.5k. You will need a grafix card coz P5Q dosen't have an IGP.

Here is a config with IGP :-
ASUS P5K VM + Intel C2D E8400

OR

MSI P7NGM + C2D E7200.


AMD :-

X4 9550 + Jetway 780G

OR

X4 9550 + BioStar 780G
