For 40k the 6608au is good.
But if it has to be dell then get a 1420 with 2gb ram and t7250.. but it may go upto 43k.

Should I go for Intel C2D T5450 (1.66 Ghz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667 Mhz FSB) or Intel C2d T7250 (2.0 Ghz, 2MB L2 Cache, 800 Mhz FSB). Will there be a considerable difference in performance in both of them.

As far I get by our Yahoo IM Chat, i dont think your sister would be able to use the extra procy power for her uses...

So still with the base processor !! :)

160 GB SATA HDD @ 5200 RPM or 160 GB SATA HDD @ 7200 RPM. The later one costs Rs.2100 extra. Is it worth investing?

Once again same reply :lol:

as in both case the T5250 and 5400 RPM disk will extend the bettery life :lol:

65W AC Adapter or a 90W AC adapter.

U may need 90W only if you are thinking for going with 9 Cell battery !!!

6 Cell or a 9 Cell battery. How much extra time of backup do I get in a 9 Cell battery as compared to a 6 Cell battery. Moreover, a 9 cell battery comes out of the laptop face to some extent thereby spoiling the look of it. Which one should I opt?

Tough question :p as it is true, that 9 cell will extend a bettery a greate deal, so for those who get really short time for charge up and always on the move, 9 cell is a good option...

So even if its make the notebook look a little bulky but its worth of investing only if you are getting less time for charging !!!

Last but not the least, by her requirement a bigger screen would be better :lol: why not Dell 1520 the 15" screen ??

Right off the assembly line
I am thinking of getting a new PC (for gaming). I want to know the relation between processor FSB and RAM memory clock. i heard that for intel processors we need to match the FSB with RAM memory clock.

I am not sure whether to go for an Intel Core 2 Duo E6750, with 4GB RAM (667MHz), or for the same processor with 2GB RAM(800MHz)

Also i am in a bit of a confussion on which mobo to take (i dont know much about chipsets ). i have the foll. shortlisted.

ASUS P5K VM (Intel® G33 chipset 1333 FSB)
ASUS P5K C (Intel® P35 chipset 1333 FSB)
ASUS P5K - V (Intel® G33 chipset 1066 FSB)

or should i sacifice other components and go for the more expensive
ASUS P5N 32 E SLI (NVIDIA nForce® 680i SLI™1333 FSB) ?

Also which graphics card is better?
XFX 8600GT 256MB DDR3
XFX 8600GT 512MB DDR2
XFX 8600GTS 256MB DDR3

Or should i go for another GPU???

I intend to buy the comp by the end of Jan... I heard rumours abt the release of Nvidia 9600 graphics card (*www.techpowerup.com/?47977)... Not sure whether its true... Should i wait for the release???

I think you should wait till the end of Jan as Intel is goin to release its new 45nm based Core 2 Duo processors and I think they would be in the same price range as the existing one and also perform better.

I am not sure about when NVIDIA is going to release its new 9 series but its in the roadmap of NVIDIA and we can expect it in the 1h of 2008.

P5N32-E SLI will not support the new quadcore penryn made by 45nm fabrication process.Only 780i from nvidia supports new quadcore penryn.

If I remember correct, 3200+ was the highest for XP and you are not likely to get it even second hand. Also I don't think it will be a worthwhile attempt.
