Basic Guide Purchase a New System

[Choto Cheeta]

I 'de suggest a 350W PSU which will be sufficient to run this config.

well now days u would have 400 or 450 watts coming as default with cabinet at Rs. 1200/- for Cabi + SMPS... but fact is that 450 wont give more than 350 watts on load

And buy those EE or BE processors from AMD they draw only 45W power and same as the other processors!

whats the price at ur place ?? as its unfortunate that BE range is available though really hard to come buy but actually its costlier than X2 range

@choto
yeah 650i is 4.9k alright but its a rather old chipset(already nearing nvidia 780/750 launch) with some heating issues and for 6.3k i think the abit ip35-e will be a better buy as it retains compatibility with penryn and overclock better.....

and also any info on when the tri-core processors from AMD launch or the penryn processors from intel ???

I was telling that 350 Watt will be sufficient for this config because of the huge electricity bills.
My cooler master 430 W Extreme is real pain in the butt if i run my System 24/7


I never saw that BE edition either. But the EE editon is available in Nehru Place, New Delhi.....donno the price but its less power consuming that regular ones!

Budget of 35k

I would like to build a decent gaming PC with 35k as budget

Please suggest the best available options. I already have a good LCD monitor (View Sonic vx194wm)

My personal liking is this:

2 GB RAM
NVIDIA 8600 GT
C2D e6750
250 GB HDD
Vista Home premium
Need mother board suggestion
Need CPU case suggestion

Please let me know if I can get this configuration for 35k

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

Dude...since u already mentioned the name...so i shouldn't give my opinion...but heck.....i will still give! LOL!
Just Kidding!!!


Really cheap means......tell him to buy a used computer....it will come in cheap and also fulfill his requirement.

One shouldn't buy the new stuff or expensive stuff when u have less requirement!

I just got a Zebronics 845GV mobo for my aging P4 2.4GHz socket 478 pin......but i agree it is piontless to buy that now(came to know only after getting it)....

it costs 2.2k.....its the only board avcailable for 478 pin now.....but the board is crappy and no support at all....especially after having used intel G865GBF board

 

[frontech]

What was the total cost? can you please give us specs of processor and mobo.

Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4 GHz Q6600 Processor
11750

INTEL D975XBX2
11000

liteon 1330

seagtae 2000

ram 3330

cabinet
2000


i already have 17'' lcd monitor (hp)

chotobhai please check post no.1130.
is the price of 13k good for Q6600?
which shud I consider buying choto Q6600 or E6750?

 

[dronadula]

thnkx man there is a lot's of INFO

this one is a cool post man

 

[Choto Cheeta]

chotobhai please check post no.1130.

is the price of 13k good for Q6600?

Q6600 should be around Rs. 11200/- + TAX (4% VAT)... thats what it is in Kolkata...

E6750 is Rs. 7800/- + TAX...

so they are not same when u compare them with price how ever E6850 is Rs. 11500/- + TAX ...

now I would say E6850 is more OC friendly where as Q6600 is a Quad Core processor... at present there are not much Apps or OS which can use the C2Q properlly so if u are not thinking for the future i would say then E6850 is what u should eye...

but if you are buying a system which u want to use for another 3 years without processor I would say think for the C2Q then

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

Besides the Q6600 shows some really good results compared to PHENOM X4!

I must say that AMD is nor showing what it is supposed to!

Intel is still leading the war!

 

[upendra_gp]

good to see u back choto!
thanks! please tell me if crysis will run on 8600gt?
thanks keith!

 

[keith_j_snyder2]

Dude if u are planning to run CRISIS in high resolution or maxed out settings....then i gotta tell u that even 8800 GTS also fails to give decent frame rates!

But if u plan to play in medium or low settings then 8600 GT is not a bad deal at all!

 

[xsreality]

i m planning on buying ASUS P5N-E SLI with E6700... i need a gud grfx card around 8-9k so that i can play games like NFS Carbon...

which grfx card wud u suggest? XFX 8600GT is on my mind but is there any other better alternative to it in 8-9k?

 

[Harvik780]

^^Yes you can opt for XFX 8600GT fatility which is available from Rashi Peripherals for 9k.Else you can go for XFX 8600GT XXX which will be available for 8.5k

 

[dOm1naTOr]

@xsreality
take a look at ATI's new HD series. They are more future proof nd has xtreme value for money.
HD 3800

 

[Harvik780]

We can easily expect nvidia to revise its midrange cards too.So expect new line of Geforce 8600/8700 based G94 graphics cards at a much cheaper price and more performance.

I wuld ask you to change the plan a little....

yes stick with C2D but just few alteration...

I would say with your budget look in to this,

E6550
XFX 650i Ultra

now this 2 will allow budget to ctach a XFX 8800 GT 512 MB which is Rs. 13000/- + TAX

thank you...
