Bond, Desi Bond!
:confused: Are there any mobos for an intel processor(like the one's manufactured by companies that make graphic cards e.g xfx 630i,nvidia mobos etc.) having onboard graphics equivalent
to mobo's based on amd's 790g? I've asked this question coz i've always used intel and i prefer it.Though AMD is a good company too and i have nothing against it.

Nope. Not in 5k range. Equivalent mobo for Intel proccys costs atleast 9k

:confused: If there are such mobos then can i add a graphic card to them later and put them in crossfire mode as mentioned earlier in this thread?

as I said earlier, they are very costly.

:confused: Do the mobos that we have discussed in this thread uptil now have dual-channel support?

Yes. all of them.

:confused: If in the intel config. given above i save money by buying a cheaper processor and mobo e.g c2d e2180 and a cheap mobo without any onboard graphics,and investing the money in a graphic card,would it be a nice option(would it be better than the amd rig)?If yes,then what would be that processor,mobo and graphic card?
Don't even thenk about the e2180. It's a pentium dual core and comes no where near to the Core2Duo or X2. If you are going for a dx10 card like 8600GT or above, you need atleast X2 5200+ (Rs. 4.5k) or E7200 (Rs.5.5k)

:confused: Is the xfx 8600gt that bad?I mean does it really heated up a lot?

yes. lot of members reported 100degree plus temperatures. Stay away from it.

This could work out for you:

Proccy: E7200, 5700/- (new 45nm processor)
Mobo : Abit IP35P : 5200/- (no onboard GPU for this)
Ram: 1GB 800 MHz 1050/-
HDD: WD 250GB. 2350/-
GPU: MSI NX8600GT ddr3 256mb. 4.5k/-
kobian cabinet with SMPS: 1.5k
DVDWR: Sony 1150/-
Speakers: creative inspire 2.1 . 1500/-


Total cost : 24k/- without monitor.

1. pentium dual core comes nowhere near c2d ? why, they overclock wonderfully, E2160 can beat E8200 and every single AMD processor.

2. use ati radeon 3450, 3550 or 3650 instead of nvidia geforce 8600gt

@ desiibond
bro. i checked the amd's website and found out that there's no 790g chipset.There was 780g and 790fx.Were u talking about something else or just wrote it by mistake?Pls.reply
 

desiibond

Bond, Desi Bond!
sorry. Yes that was 780G. Just check with few dealers in your locality. Gigabyte has released few 780G boards for around5.5k

i think it's Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H for 5.5k

Dude,,go 4 the 780g with blind eyes..i got my pc just 2 months bfore its release and now regret doing so..! and if u can extend ur budget, then go for a better proccy 4 more performance!

And if ure thinking of putting a gfx card wid a 790fx...then y not wid d 780g..? and u can also take advantage ov d Hybrid-graphics!

^^ +1. But if you are ready to buy a GPU, get the Intel config.

780G is better when compared to 790fx due to its onboard GPU. Moreover 790fx should cost lot more. I think 790fx comes with dual PCIe 2.0 slots.
