ok how much will my 6200 will go for if i sell ???

Why u want to buy a Onboard based Mobo when u have a grfx card ?? yes i mean it, 2.0 / 2.2 Index rating with 6200 will allow Areo without any problem but yes will be hard in gaming...

buy XFX 650i if u are planing for P5B-VM then XFX 650i with 6200 i would say as u already have the 6200

 

[naveen_reloaded]

no man .. actually they are assembling the system and about to get the system at anytime now...
my friend has agreed to give his 8600 gt 512 for 5500Rs.. so cool huh ...

so until then i thought of using the free ggfx card.. thats why ..

guys...
P5GC-MX vs P5B-V.... which one is goood..

my vendor bought the former... tom i have a chance to change ...

wht say??

 

[Choto Cheeta]

huh ??

P5GC-MX G945 base board lot cheaper than P5B-V which is G965 based board, and at no point never consider that P5GC-MX so change right away

 

[naveen_reloaded]

man the vendor which i got is a friend of mine ..
i asked for p5b ...
but he got me this ..

here is my config intel core 2 duo 4500 2.2ghz
1gb x 2 ram ddr2 transcend
320 gb hdd sata... but cant say whether it is 2 or 1..
coz i haven pluged in the system...
tom i will do it ..
its fresh .. no os ... nothing..
asus p5gc mx 1333 oc..something something ...
atx cab .. (nice one actually )
ups 600va
creative speakers a30
ztech web cam..

all comes to 20k/-

wht shall i do ???

 

[Choto Cheeta]

say no to the full config

AMD 4800 with M2N based (nvidia 6150) will performe far better than this 20k config

 

[naveen_reloaded]

why do u say so.. please man.. i am stuck..

why is it ??

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^ask for individual prices man and then post.Don't go for full system as your 'friend' is proposing.

processor---ok
Ram---------ok
hard disk---get sata2 man it works 5-10% faster than sata1
motherboard---no idea
ups------will do
cabinet---buy a large atx cabinet....should be large and future upgradable.

 

[zyberboy]

wts the price of P5B-V??

 

[Choto Cheeta]

@Ravi

Compare the Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 + ASUS P5GC-MX and AMD 4800 + ASUS M2NPV-VM

Now tell us, which u think is better ??

at any given day i would go for the AMD Config

 

[naveen_reloaded]

^^ here is the price list ..

proicy - 5240
ram - 3028
hdd - 3798
mobo - 2836
atx cab - 1536 yes its really large...
ups - 1586
speakers - 384
web cam - 817
]
total 19230 + tax = pefectly 20 k

the thing is when u guys told me the config i didnt consider of the other thing say ups , webcam , speakers, cabinet ( nice one this is , i thought of going thru some simple cabinet)

so i dont know wht to do ..

now the problem is with the price i got all .. i wanted .. off course with some effect over performance.. but mainly this for download and occaasional game.. more over i am going to get 8600 gt from my friend ..

wht shall i do ??
adding another 5k for mobo will affect my gfx card buying..

wht shall i do guys ..??
shall istick or is there another mobo similar in price but with better performance..
and also will i loose tooo much of performance..??
help me/./

@choto cheeta:I agree with you but I think naveen wants intel based solution as he mentioned in on of his earlier post if I am not mistaken.He wants a c2d system.

 

[naveen_reloaded]

help me guys

guys mine is p5gc mx 1333
since nowe only i checked... original p5gc mx (not the 1333 version) doesnt supp 667 ram and has fsb of 800mhz..

but this 1333 version is totally diff....

ok shall i ask my vendor to replace the mobo with xfx 650 ultra???

oUpdate:

or still shall i leave it alone....

plus should I go for an amd system?it suits my budget,but the processors are out of date now.c2d systems are too costly,and I dont know what to go for.please help

price quotes are welcome....and please sugesst mobo for the processor too.
I have decided on the rest of the components.ram would be 2 gb kingston ddr2 667.

thanks in advance

[zyberboy]

is Asus P5B-E available india ? wts the price

is P5B vanilla = P5B????????

wt abt price of MSI P6N Diamond ? or any other 650i based mobo available for core2duo other than xfx & evga

 

[fragrant]

hey guys need to assemble a c2d system w/o gpu(will add gpu later),
the basic config is like this:

c2d e6600
some m0b0 nvidia chipset based preferably
single module of 2GB ddr2 @ 800 MHz (will add another 2 GB stick later)
250 GB sata2 hdd
cabinet+smps
mouse+kb(all non-wireless)
5.1 speakers
22'' or 24'' flat panel display (prolly from viewsonic)

budget ~30k
buying from calcutta

now can someone suggest the brands good enough within the budget, w/o sacrificing on the display?
it should be extensible enough, as I plan to add gpu,hdd and plenty of ram later.
and can I add more than 4 GB ram? If any m0b0 supports 8 GB ram please mention that. waiting for quick reply.

thanks

@tym_s_precs
Get a xfx 650i ultra -5k
a xfx 8600 gt -6k
and a pentium dual core e2160 -2.6k
thats wat i wd get if i were u..

@fragrant
do u want a gpu now or no???
get a
e6750 - 7.5k
xfx 650i ultra -5k
or a asus p5b v if u want onboard gfx.
2*1gb ddr2 800mhz ram -3k
Cabby + 500w smps -1.5k
250 gb sata 2 16mb buffer 2.6k

@choto are g35 or x38 chipset boards available in india yet...
jaldi bol..

 

[fragrant]

thanks pathiks
I will add a gpu next month when I get next pay.
any idea about the display?
cabby+smps and hdd and memory of which brand?

uhh... another thing can I buy a single schtick of 2 gb ddr2 ?

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^dude you cannot fit any decent 22' or 24' display in your budget.You can get a good 19' display at around 10-11k......then the prices start to rise exorbitantly with increase in size.Stick to 19'.

x650i as suggested by pathiks doesn't have onboard graphics so if you plan to add graphic card later then buy mobo with onboard graphics now.OR Wait one more month.

hdd-->get seagata or western digital

yes you can buy a single stick of 2gb ddr2 but they are very costly in india better stick to 2x1gb and later upgrade to 4x1gb........more than 4gb is not supported by any operating system.

 

[tym_s_precs]

@pathiks ... hey thanks,but putting an e2160 on a 650i is an overkill,lplease sugesst some onboard graphics solution,as my budget is rs 13000 only ....

idea is to get a cpu which can b with me for 3 years,either at stock,or overclocked.this cpu is far too slow dont you think?should I go for e4400?or some amd?
things are cheaper there... any sugesstions....

@The_Devil_Himself... m going for 2x 1 gb modules,I think you are right abt the x650i,but what to choose given my paltry budget ....

and besides what is the benefit of waititng a month?are the prices going to fall drastically?Ihave been holding for a month already...prices have not gone down,except ram.
