^Dont worry.. I've made my decision and it is Q6600... Even its a 2 year old technology Phenom II 920 is beating it by a little fraction and in some benchies Q6600 is ahead of it also.. So according to me even its a new technology its not new when it cant beat old..

As for future compatibility both motherboards will be worthless if I plan to make an upgrade.. Also did I talk about Vcore values needed for Phenom II 920 to overclock whereas Q6600 is a proven OC'er and draws less power..

I think Phenom II 940 is the way to go if any one is starting a build for quads but unfortunately my budget doesn't allow it.. So I'm better off with Intel.. I think I will get my system tomorrow or day-after-tomorrow.. :D


Q6600 is good one i was thinking about that one day , i thought it is old one so i never said about it .

Make sure that if u r buying the Q6600 get best CPU cooler & best Mobo

If i were choosing the Q6600 then i go for this config

Intel Q6600
Asus P5Q-pro
Cooler master Gemini CPU cooler
4GB DDR 800
HD 4850
320 GB HDD
Cooler master 600 watts (or) corsair VX 450
LG DVD writer
Zebby Reaper Cabby
Viewsonic 2235wm-5
Logitech keyboard and mouse
Logitech 2.1speakers
Microtek UPS 2 battery

9500+9000+2000+2100+9500+2800+3400+1000+2000+13000+750+2200+2200=> total 57450/-

With this mobo & cpu cooler ... u can Overclock the Q6600 to 3.8Ghz & above:D

Or alternatively u can add 3k to that and make it 60k, but, with a Q9300 instead.

Even better alternative, wait and get PhenomII 920

^ thanks for the config.. look at this with changes here and there..

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 9.5k (I'm very skeptical about Q8200 with its higher fsb, lower multiplier, lesser cache)
Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3L @ 6.5k
Palit HD4850 @ 9.5k
WD 500GB @ 2.95k
Kingston 4Gb 800Mhz @ 2.3k
CM Elite 334 @ 1.7k
Corsair VX450w @ 4k
Samsung DVDRW @ 1.1k
Microsoft Keyboard+Mouse @ 0.75k
Microtek 800VA double battery UPS - 2.7k
Creative SBS A300 2.1 @ 1.4k
DLink Wireless LAN PCI Card @ 0.9k

All prices quoted by SMC, Delhi. Still not recieved the price for Dell monitor.. DELL SE198WFP.. probably around 9k..

Total - 52.5k roughly..

Also.. Zebronics bijli (without PSU) - 1200
MSI HD 4850 - 9.5k (should I go with this one or Palit one)

if u choosing 19Inch means , i have listed the config above will come to 53-54k & also i have added logitech 2.1 speakers for 2200 so less 1K

surely that config comes to 52.5K

Check prices ,, :)

Dunno abt Antibiotic but Bijli comes with a 400W PSU which wont be able to handle HD4850.

Intel Q8200

WD Caviar SE16 640GB HDD
Palit HD4850 512MB GDDR3
Zebronics Bijli cabinet
CoolerMaster EP 500W PSU
Dell 198WFP 19" LCD
Logitech Gaming G1 kbd/mouse
Altec Lansing BXR1121 2.1 speakers
LG H55n DVD-RW


You can get better speakers like the Logitech M-30 (2.4k) or Altec Lansing MX5021 (6k) if you want. You can even opt for 5.1 setups like Philips MMS460 (around 5-6k). If you need headphones, buy a pair Sony MDR-XD200. You can get better mouses like Logitech MX518 (1.7k) or Logitech G5 (around 4K).

CM 334 is a mini-ITX cabby i guess, dunno, forgot but I think so yes.

Buy a better speaker system, Logitech X240 2.1 @ 2.4k
