Buying a New PC (Mumbai) 65K

How is the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr II in comparison to the ASUS GTX570 Direct CU II and the MSI N580 GTX? In terms of VFM and Performance?

 

[coolgame]

dont even bother.the 6970 gives a competition to the 570 not the 6950

 

[game-freak]

buy ASUS GTX 570 Direcect CU II its a good card ull get confused if u start considering other options check out the review of ASUS GTX 570 Direct CU II click here

 

[coolgame]

[game-freak]

[OFF TOPIC] sorry for going off topic but just saw the review for cooler master's new cabinet CM storm enforcer what a good looking and a full of feature product any idea when it would be released here in india

@ coolgame MSI twin frozr II is a gr8 card but the sole purpose of recomending ASUS over MSI is because ASUS has better service than MSI in india

Hi Guys, have selected this as my base configuration, and was wondering if could tweak this up a bit by adding a SSD? or If I should upgrade to the i7 with the option of trying out the G-SKILL[Trident] PC3-12800/1600 Mhz/cl-8-8-8-24 (2Gx2). Thoughts?

Component Make Price
Processor Intel Core i5 2500k 11000
Motherboard Intel DP67BG 8500
RAM G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL 2500
Graphic Card ASUS GTX570 Direct CU II 20500
HDD Seagate 1TB 7200.12 2600
DVD Writer Asus 24X SATA DVD 900
PSU Seasonic S12D 850 7100
Case CM 690 II Advanced Transparent Side Panel 5800
Keyboard&Mouse Razer Cyclosa bundle 2000

G-SKILL[Trident] PC3-12800/1600 Mhz/cl-8-8-8-24 (2Gx2) benefits in gaming... get it

 

[game-freak]

change ur psu a 850 w is to much for ur config its a overkill better go for 650 w which will be more than enough

which monitor are u using just curious

go for corsair tx 650 which will cost u 5500 it will bring ur budget to 59300

Ahh, I guess the PSU was to make it a bit future proof and in case I would want to SLI in the future. I'm using a Samsung 24 Incher, with a res of 1920x1080.

Just a follow up to my earlier post, do you think it makes sense to go for th i7 or just stick with the i5?

OP has samsung 22" 1080p monitor..

i5 2500k would be better and is more VFM compared to i7 2600k
and are u certain u would go for a sli in the future if no then no need of buying a 850W power supply

when i asked u which monitor i ment the model number as there are no samsung 24 inch monitors available in india

@ mailme according to his budget i5 2500k will b much better

As i said before, If budget permits OP can get
i7 2600K - 16.4K

and plz do some research b4 suggesting something the psu u suggested is for 9800 not for 7100

May be u should do some research, no offense
Seasonic S12D 850 Watts - 7.1K

i knew that Seasonic S12D 850 is for 9800 thts y i suggested u corsair 650w which is more than sufficient accoding 2 me its always better 2 use 1 gpu than a sli or crossfire (i may b wrong)

GeForce GTX 570

On your average system the card requires you to have a 600 Watt power supply unit.

GeForce GTX 570 in 2-way SLI

A second card requires you to add another ~225 Watts. You need a 750+ Watt power supply unit if you use it in a high-end system (800+ to a KiloWatt is recommended if you plan on any overclocking).
