[sonu1983]

[zyberboy]

^^i wud suggest asus m2n-e mobo and zebronics peace or antibiotic cabby at Rs2000

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

U should opt for a ASUS M2N-E...really awesome board! Or if u want ans SLI setup then go for M2N E - SLI for 300/- more! but M2N-E is nVidia 570 Ultra chipset and SLI version is 500
M2NE Ultra has copper heat sink and SLI version dont!

@sonu1983
get 2*1G transcent 800 for 1.3k*2=2.6k
And also as chotto said, get XFX 8800GT. Cheaper nd better.

My friend is buying a Motherboard+RAM+processor this december. What is the best combo he can find within Rs 10000? (He is going to use onboard graphics, so it should be good.)

 

[sonu1983]

thanks@cyber,keith,@aravind
i also wanted to know which smps to get..i can go with a cheap cabinet around 1k..but smps needs to be atleast 500w to support the graphic card right? zebronics 500w platinum?

and also i asked for the asus M2N-E ..he says 5850 ...i thought it was only 5000 ...hmmm suckers..

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

^^ Dude, different states have different prices so its not a new thing. Just try to bargain as much as u can!

Zebronics 500 platinum is a good PSU. Go for it!

i want to buy a branded cabinet(not interested in zebronics,intex,frontech...)

antec is too costly any alternate that i can go for?...i would like to have cabinet+smps for 6k(max)

 

[mAYHEM]

Can anyone suggest a board for QX6600,basic use is A/V encoding.Budget~10K

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

Dude VIP also make quality cabinets but they are as costly as cooler master. Zebronics antibiotics is the best in your budget, even if i have to buy a cabinet now , i will definitely go for Antibiotics.

There is hardly any cabinet which is as good as Cooler Master, Antec, Thermaltake and cheap as INTEX.

COOLER MASTER Elite 330 is for 2400/-!

Rs. 10k budget, here are the options for u....

AMD X2 4800+ @ Rs. 4300 /- + TAX
ASUS M2NPV VM (Nvidia 6150 chipset) @ Rs. 4000 /- + TAX
1 GB DDR-II 667 MHz (Transend) @ Rs. 1000 /- + TAX

TAX @ (4% VAT) Rs. 372 /-
Total Rs. 9672 /-

if budget permits, try and add another 1 GB RAM , as it would boost the systems performance a lot

Thanks Choto, but would Asus M2A-VM be a better option, since it has ATi x1250 IGP, which I think is better than Nvidia 6150 ?

Which is better GMA X3000 (in G965) or GMA X3100 (in G33) ??

In G965, the IGP is GMA X3000

In G33 the IGP is GMA 3100

The G965 would be better.

when cosidering gaming i see games runs better on nvidia 6150 where as under vista both performs same way at it is... as for gaming the SM 3.0 which is present in the Nvidia 6150 IGP gives it an edge over the x1250 which supports SM 2.0, same like G965 (IGP x3000) and G33 (IGP x3100)...

Where as personally i feel x1250 is more suited with Windows vista over nvidia 6150
