Basic Guide Purchase a New System

[jackal_79]

i have a doubt regarding Geforce 8600 GT.Which of the following is the best?

XFX / ASUS / Gigabyte

 

[Choto Cheeta]

ASUS / XFX / GigaByte all three are good...

I prefer XFX when comes to grfx card where as ASUS is my 2nd choise, but never used any GigaByte Card...

Once again these are My personal Opinion... !!!

 

[jackal_79]

when i asked for the price of XFX 8600 GT it was 6750 + Tax. So it will come around 6900.Is it really worth it?

 

[BULLZI]

go for it.its a good card,not very hi fi, bt u can have medium range gaming without ny problem.

@choto

u didnt reply to me pal.

@choto

u didnt reply to me pal.

Hey I am missing the question !!! I did say, for 25k, its Q6600 and ASUS P5N32-E SLi but apart from that I cant see any other question... please guide me to that !!!

Price is normal... neither its very cheap nor you are being over charged... so if u have the funds, go for it...

 

[BULLZI]

Yup,thats rite.25 k just for proccy+mobo.

looks like he has gone crazy abt hardwares.

well quad core along with p5n32e sli - sounds really cool.bt will it be future proof for at least 3 yrs?i mean to say he has consideration about ddr3 memory.

so....nything better??

and also plz do post the individual pices for the proccy n mobo.

plz refer to this.

 

[Choto Cheeta]

ohh !!!

Well DDR3 based board would be best with X38 chipset which is long due and yet to come out... even those P35 which suports DDR3 will be around 16k so in that case u have to settel for E6750 as Processors... and finding DDR3 module in India will be damn hard, u would end up odering from US, and 2 GB of it would mean costlier than Ur Mobo + Procy I suppose...

so Better Stick to DDR2 now... and it would be safe for 3 years

Q6600 is 12.5 to 12.9k depending on the day or market
P5N32-E SLI is Rs. 11.9k

Besides this the DDR3 isn't that much of a performance when compared with DDR2. There's hardly a noticeable difference between performance. Since u can get 4x1 GB DDR2 for the price of 2 GB DDR3....or may be 1 GB,i think u should opt DDR2 as Chota Cheeta Says.

 

[Pathik]

Yep u can easily get 4*1gb ddr2 667 for 6k.. Whereas 1gb ddr3 wd be much more costlier

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

Are you sure pathik about your prices??
that means 2x1gb should cost 3k to me.

 

[Pathik]

Yup.. A dealer at lamington rd gave me those rates for 1gb transcend ddr2 667mhz modules.. ~1.5k

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

Thats good news for me.thanks dude.

 

[BULLZI]

thanks to all of you guyz..

my friend has already got P5N32-E SLI.he is going to get the quad core in this weekend.

 

[jackal_79]

[Choto Cheeta]

FEAR / CoH / any other present game willl run fine with 8600 GT

Now please suggest a Intel processor and mobo

[Pathik]

[jackal_79]
