thanks mohit for ur valuable advice.( for me atleast) :D

i Have been to the nearest dealer, and the price he qouted is

intel D101GGC + intel 2.8 Ghz -----> 10200/-
512 MB DDR----------------------------> 2200/-
ATX Cabinet----------------------------> 1200/-
80 GB Sata-----------------------------> 3000/-
SONY DVD-R---------------------------> 3300/-

another vendor
P4 3Ghz ---------------> 8550/- (is it the price of 630, i don't know)
Intel D101GGC--------> 4200/-
80 Gb SATA-----------> 2950/-
512MB DDR-----------> 2250/-
SONY DVD-R----------> 3350/-
ATX CAbinet-----------> 1100/-


i have contacted AMD dealer he told me to come tomorrow for price list.
so u see such is the vvariation in the price u quoted and available here.

i don't care about other stuff, i just wanted to buy a good (porccy and mobo) others can be accomodated. (prime consideration is that after buying it, i should be free for atleast 3 to 4 yrs).

anyway my budget is within 22000/-

@nd4spd
the second vendor is giving you the correct price. but do make sure u get good quality ram with min 3 years warranty. also get only the sony dru-810a dvd-rw. the mobo rate is a bit expensive and u can try bargaining on it. and ya the 8550/- for 3ghz processor is the price for pentium 4 630 but tell him that u will buy the system only if its a 630 and not the normal 3ghz. and do make sure that u buy a good quality cabinet with min. 400W smps.

do one thing. ask him to get the components in front of u and then u can easily check if he is giving u a box packed pentium 4 630 or not. also check the warranty on the seagate hard disk (seagate gives a 5 year warranty). tell him to get all the products in front of u before he starts getting the machine assembled. this way u will be able to examine and check each part.

and as u r from durg .. u can pm me for my number. i am from raipur and would be glad to help u if u need any further help.

why strongly recommend intel?

i am going to buy a new PC and after following all the discussions i've decided to go for AMD64 until i saw this forum and the little advice mohit has given "I strongly recommend the Intel processor even though I am using AMD myself". i just wondered WHY?

i find AMD 64 sluggish when multitasking .. I had an Intel P4 2.8ghz before my AMD A64 3000+ S939 and so i can see the difference. Dont want an INTEL vs AMD war here guys .. this is just my personal opinion.

Hi guys,
Its better to go for a mobo based on the n-Force4 chipset because they offer superlative performance in gaming.ASUS A8N-E is based on the above chipset and is a very good budget performer.It also has support for SATA II,so once u plug in a GFx card like 6600 128MB(preferably from XFX or Gainward) and a SATA II harddrive(from Hitachi or seagate),you are bound to get better performance.
The retail prices of the above products
ASUS A8N-E :5.6k (with out onboard Gfx)
XFX 6600 128MB : 6.2k
Seagate 80 GB SATA II: 3.2k
The processor choices are good enough ,and so is the optical drive.This conifig will also let you play future games at medium settings,without AA/AF.

Also,benchmarks have proven that AMD 64 with HyperTransport perform better than Intel in Processor intensive and muti threaded tasks!

oh dude .. please cut out benchmarks ..see what i had before and now

Before
Intel P4 Prescott 2.8Ghz (800 fsb , 1MB L2 , HT, LGA)
Intel Original D915GAV
512 MB DDR 4OO RAM

Now
AMD 3000+ S939
DFI LANPARTY UT NF4 ULTRAD
512*2 = 1024 MB OF RAM

Now even after doubling the ram and going for the best nforce4 ulra board for amd .. i still find it sluggish in multitasking. Intel's Hyper Threading technology is something else and really out of this world.

I agree with you that AMD's performance in multitasking is a bit sluggish because it is not optimized for it.Intel's HT processors are though.But in raw processing power and processor intensive tasks, gaming being one of them, AMD takes the topspot. Simple rule:
* If you are into gaming , 3d modelling or animation, Encoding, ripping,CAD,etc. go for an AMD any day.
*If you run a lot of applications simultaneously,like listen to music while surfing,or working in Photoshop,etc. then my votes for Intel HT. Seriously no AMD vs Intel war ;-)

I completely agree with wht Kaustav and mohit say
Even i hav got two pcs.
one p4 2.66 with asus p5rd1 - Vm 768 mb ram
and other with
amd athlon 64 3000+ with asus A8N- VM csm
but the fact is intels can handle lots of pressure nut in gaming it ok
while other way round for amd.
AMD is cool for gamers

Listen GUNSHOTSILENCE
since u hant mentioned abt ur mobo asuming u take
take one of this board
ASUS A8n VM CSM 5600Rs / Gigabyte K8N51GMF 4150RS
then instead going for 3000+ i would recomend 3200+
3000+ = 6100 and 3200+ = 7750 Rs
then ram (400 fsb)would be around 4500 -5000 Rs (depending on model)
MOuse keyboard combo wireless optical abt 1800 - 1900 frm logitek
then 6600 gt = 10800
pinnacle media center = 2500
taking a good vip cabinet frm gaming series take G-300 = 3000 + SMPS = 500
160 SATA = 3850
lite on DVD writer = 3000
Sorry i hav no knowledge abt speakers
so excluding speakers pirze goes around
########## 43900 RS with ASUS board n 3200+#####
########## 40800 Rs with GIGABYTE n 3000+ #####
HEY man my DAD will sure kill me if i show him this
Dont know abt u?????
ALL THE BEST
I would then too suggest u to dont take 6600Gt instead go for 2 gb of ram Cuz wait for 7800 to reduce on prize also ASUS A8N VM CSM has good onboard 6150 tht will handle alteast game abt coming one year. SO go for ram
IF U LIKE OR WANNA ARGUE THEN PLZ REPLY..
BYE

GUNSHOTSILENCE,
hey bro, the lifespan of a PC is around 18 months. in layman terms new technology replaces the existing technology in about 1 and 1/2 years. so even if u buy a topend gaming PC now get ready for an upgradation in two years. 5-6 years is unthinkable in the times we live in.

PS: better wait for 7900 GT its much cooler, light weight and should be cheaper than a 7800 GT and GTX and performs better too.

@ymhatra & @mav3r1ck

right now im using a p3 which my dad upgraded to in 2001 august b4 he went to london and that 9/11 took place

i added a new mouse/keyboard, monitor, cdwriter +dvdrom and a pci graphic card in 2004 to give it a new lease of life as he couldnt afford a upgrade then

and with this all lease of life, i use my pc for all msofficework, dreamweaver, audio recording+editting with adobe audition and encodingwith dr divx and also gaming (albeit at lower reso and detail)

i have played cod1,cod2, ron+exp, nfsug 1 &2, aoe3, gta VC, gtaSA which i culdnt even think of playing on my p3

so now when i say an upgrade lasting for atleast 4-5 yrs means , when necessary, adding a few new items like gpu, ram to give new life.

take one of this board
ASUS A8n VM CSM 5600Rs / Gigabyte K8N51GMF 4150RS

whats its cost?

i would recomend 3200+
me too

then ram (400 fsb)would be around 4500 -5000 Rs

which is the faster and whats the cost? 533? 512*2 mbs
MOuse keyboard combo wireless optical abt 1800 - 1900 frm logitek

pinnacle media center = 2500

internal or external? tv-tuner? i wud prefer internal cause anyway to record i wud require to boot into my os and a amd 64 3200+ wud boot in less than 1 min as my p3 boots up from bootloader screen to stable (min cpu usage)windows in 1.45 mins
taking a good vip cabinet frm gaming series take G-300 = 3000 + SMPS = 5

wud go for a LED cabinet with atleast 450w power whichever the company of the cabinet

160 SATA = 3850

will it work on an ide interface if bought now. will an ide hdd work on sata?

will be building a media center pc so good set of 5.1/7.1 speakers in my room.

so plz tel me the final prices of
amd643200+ 939

LIsten GUNSHOT....
As far as ram is considered 533 is best...
no wireless then, go for logitek optical mouse n multimedia keyboard....
WHT i suggested was internal tv tunner card n best in its class...
Model no is PCTV 100i supports WIN MCE
For cabinets....
see this
*www.kunhar.com/vipcabinets/gaming.html
u can insert 450 SMPS but more money about 150 extra....
HEY for HDD ur mobo shld have IDE interface...
Which every mobo have...
But it varies in number...
Hence it is prefered to have two of ide interface
and SATA is all different thing having different port...
PLZ let me know if u r interested in wht i said .
If yes then i will work on giving ur final budget...
ALSO mention the final components again, so tht i can give u exact prize....
