Re: Need help for new PC!

Idon't know man but i think for a 22" 8600 Gt is little low on frames.....try getting 8800 GTS or Wit till the market overflow with 8800 GT!

Min. i recommend 8600GTS!

1. X2 4400+
2. ASUS MEN MX -SE = CPU Mobo Combo 7250
3. 8600 GT Galaxy 256 MB = 6350
4. 1 GB DDR II 667 MHz = 1350
5. Got a Extra Fan = 75
6. 160 GB Seagate SATA HDD = 3000
7. Odyssy SMPS 450 W = 450

And some bargain to get total down to round of 17k including all

btw Just loving the 8600 GT power

I am running all my games [Most of them are 2005 to 2006 release] at totally FULL graphic setts and they are running like a charm .

One can wait for 8800 GT rather than 8800 GTS (320)!
Heard that its a better performer than 320 GTS and will be cheaper too!

Good point but unfortunatelly this is indian market waiting seems never ending as till date when we would have 8800 GT at Local market with proper pricing, by then we would see 9xxx are just about to come in

Motherboard : ASUS P5K -C is also a good option. It supports both DDR 2 as well as DDR3 RAM (if in future ...IF DDR 3 prices hit the dirt)

its our personal choise yes you are right the board comes P35 chipset and its same if not better than 680i nvidia... and will come with CrossFire

how ever, its just my personal ovservasion that some how nvidia cards doesnt quite performe upto the mark with board which are ment for ATi CrossFire , once again, its just my personal opinion, as do note, on paper P5K-C should run at full performance with any x16 Nvidia Card without any issue....

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

Yeah u are right but now days INDIA is also on a good road. I 've noticed that the 8800 GTX was available in India in first week of december 2006 when it was launched in november!

India also holds great potential thats why companies like XFX launches the product easily!
Also if it is available not so early then also the wait is worth `because we will get some time to see the performance of the hardware with its competitor!

@JohnephSi

as per as suggestion of, keith_j_snyder2 you can do one thing... opt out of 8800 GTS 320 MB and for temp purpose, buy XFX 8400 GS which Rs. 2500/- + TAX on the bellow config... stick with it for few weeks till we have the 8800 GT in the market... then buy 8800 GT if you find the price is under ur budget and replace the 8400 with 8800 GT then

Intel Q6600 @ Rs. 11500/- + TAX
ASUS P5N32-E Sli @ Rs.10200/- + TAX
Kingstone / Transcend 800 MHz 4GB (1x4) @ Rs. 6000/- + TAX

Well do one thing, save money on the board if you like as MSI K9AGM2 will do the job fine which is Rs. 2450/- + TAX, abd then try and push for that AMD 5000 Black Edition, I am really no sure whether its in Indian Market or not though...

 

[Tech_Wiz]

I have same config as u can see in My sig. MoBo is mentioned there =]

Its around 3 K mark and works like charm

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

So far black edition is nowhere in India but it will be great to see such processor!
Heard that it has great overclocking capabilities!

If you dont have money problem..than go for E6850..However E6750 is also enough for average high end works.

Mobo based on P35, 650i, 60i or 965 chipset budget around 6-7k.

How about Asus P5B delux, price 11k
Or Asus P5B-VM, price 7K

8800GTS 640MB.
2gb DDR2 667/800 Ram.
250gb SATA2 HD

Nothing to change.

power supply suggest- budget around 2k

Get any, but higher watt SMPS..around 600 or more watt.

UPS apc or powersafe - budget around 3k

APC, 800VA

If possible, follow this thread.

This thread suggests so.

So what is the alternative for XFX 650i? Can I go for ASUS P5K-C (which is a bit costly and not sure of its availability). Probably ASUS P5N-E SLI?

 

[Choto Cheeta]

^^

There are problem in any hardware but u know there are many more happy XFX 650i users out there than problemed ones XFX support isnt bad either !!!

but anyway, if not XFX 650i Ultra then I would vote for P5K-C over ASUS P5N-E SLi
