Hi i need a thinclient like solution mainly for checking emails and browsing. I already have a desktop I want to connect another client to this through wifi router. I already have a spare monitor. Just want a separate client which can connect to the main desktop. My budget is upto 8000. this should have option to connect keyboard,mouse and monitor.

Yes...Intel is leading in microprocessor technology all the time...but....they release their product very fast...they should not realese their product so rapidly at least not before 2years...they should understand that normal people can't afford so much upgradation in each & every year..........

i7 arent as costly as u think. Wait for sometime and the prices will drop.
 
y go for thinclient when u can have a dedicated CPU for this.
u can go for an Intel Atom based CPU or AMD 1250 LE based one.

Afaik .. for Atom, u can get Proccy mobo combo (the lowest one) for 3300

nw for rest 4700 u can get

1 GB DDR2 667 ---0.9k
80 GB SATA ---- 1.6k
any good cabinet with PSU - 1.5k

Or else u can leave the HDD and buy 4 GB Corsair Flash drive, Install XP on it ... and boot from it...it will be much faster. or U can boot through LAN ( i think its possible )

For AMD u can get LE 1250, + MSI Via mobo combo for 3300-3400.

thanks
the above setup takes lot of space. i don't have that much space for the cabinet to fit in. also i need these to be connected through wifi as cabling is also not possible.Is there any thin client available with wifi. i am looking for something as shown in *www.thinclients.co.in/products .but there i didn't find any wifi connectivity
 
if u dnt have that much space ..... than u can look for Cabinets from I-Cool if available ... or similar slim series cabinets from Zebronics. And for WIFI ... u can buy a PCI Wifi card for around 800 bucks.

Back to school!!
No problem watsoever ..... only u cant play "DirectX 10 exclusive" Games on Windows XP .... other than that ... its fine.
There's none there, Alan Wake is dead, no new DX10 exclusive in the picture soon, as for 2009 is the year of DX9 support as well.

Get a HD4830 instead. You won't need a 9800GTX for any office usage unless you are a tester or 3D professional.
The HD4830 is a better performer than the 9800GT.
For the PSU go with Antec TruePower Trio 550W. It has two PCI-E power connectors. The Corsair CMPSU620HX is also a good alternative but you won't need the extra power in it.

that's what we are doing + web development and so on...


Besides we might go gaming after office hours.

On a second thought, I'm taking a zotac 9800gtx amp! edition for my home as well. And next year, I'll ditch it for a crossfire solution. My p5q - deluxe supports it.

will it be okay?
