most importantly, what's your budget.

if you are going for Intel, remember that not all processors support h/w virtualization and you need to be picky. for AMD, all the processors supports h/w based virtualization.

for GPU, a HD4850 or GTS250 should do or even a 9600GT should do.

@desibond : thats what my confusion in picking the right proccy :sad: my budget is 35k including lcd monitor . so please show me the right way

whats ur opinion abt AMD Phenom II 550BE or shud i consider Athlon II x4 630 for quad core feature ??? will both the cpu suitable for HTPC too ? and what mobo goes well with them (hdmi and HD audio) ? Hope u can clear all my doubts.

If i have to go for Intel whats ur suggestion ?

It matters somewhat. But not that you should worry. It matters at higher frequencies. For a quad which is a very good overclocker and at a price of 5.5k, nothing beats it!

Thank you Dr. etaha for the quick diagnosis. You sure do need some common sense. If desii suggested a brilliant rig for you, then why should I bother posting the same one again?

/me wonders how one can't Google for GPU and difference between ddr2 and ddr3.

@Raj: Be careful when you are 'duding'...!

@Krow: Be careful when you are spreading your wings about Googling...!

We got to be a bit sensitive to new comers, takes a while to get used to the TDF culture.....!

Yes, as I said previously thank you doc. If you want to take that as an insult, then fine go ahead with it. Anyway, just a small reminder, if you read my original post (which caused rajkumar to flame like a fire :p ),

@ etaha Use Google for most of your queries, then post back. We'll help you out after that
I don't see how this is rude. If you did not understand this, then it means, first Google, all your questions should be answered. If you are unable to find something after that, we are here to help you out. If this is insulting to you, then let me know. We'll decide who has issues. :lol:

@Krow gotcha...but dont tell me u ver trying 2 help...
See, maybe its not the best way to greet a person by asking them to google, but that's how things work. If we tell you some basic things about everything, then it will be a part of what professional websites can tell you. It will be only a miniscule portion about anything that you want to know. Instead if you use Google, you might just end up finding something which we don't know already. You will have the freedom to choose which sources to take your answer from and also, you will get much more detailed answers.

Now, if you want help, we are always there. And if you tell me to paralyse you by spoonfeeding all the answers, then I am sorry, that's not the way I function. It will help you and not me if you Google and find deeper answers to your queries.

Anyways, I still stand by my original post and am available to help. :)
