cpu - gpu performance queries.

[ArjunKiller]

Take the Gigabyte one. Wouldn't rely on AsRock when it comes to low end boards.. they are good in the higher segment..

 

[topgear]

@ amruth kiran - don't fall prey to those fancy ads

Gigabyte mobo has Gigabit lan, more expansion slots which will come handy in future and pci-e 3.0 slot only matters if you are getting a IVB cpu - for SB cpus pci-e 2.0 is what you should look for.

X4 970+GA 970-UD3+7850+4GB Ripjaws X+Seasonic 520 Watt+Elite 431..should come within ur budget.

970 still available?

 

[amruth kiran]

I found the 980 in an wholesale shop. Should i take that or i5 2400? I know i5 is better want a second opinion

 

[ArjunKiller]

i5 definitely.

 

[thetechfreak]

@OP for gaming purpose only I think i5 would be better. But the budget accommodates AMD better it seems. So it depends what you want to do now.

970 still available?

Why such a random offtopic question? Hell yeah its available otherwise he wont have suggested it.AMD 3.5 GHz AM3 Phenom II 970 Processor | Processor | Flipkart.com

sorry man this overshoots by 5k rs.
i need it under 35k max!1

@OP for gaming purpose only I think i5 would be better. But the budget accommodates AMD better it seems. So it depends what you want to do now.

alright, IF an AMD rig. within 35k. whats your recommendations??

but before that check this rig. ( its an i5)
intel core i5 2400 at 9999rs
asrock h61 m ps2 at 2892rs
corsair vengeance 4gb at 1737rs
seasonic 520w at 3650rs
coolermaster 100 at 2800rs
and last but not the least hd 7850 at 14999rs
total---- 36077

Some one tell me if this is enough!!!!

 

[Sainatarajan]

I5 2400 has to be paired with a H67 board.

 

[topgear]

^^ who said that and why - can you explain ? a H61 mobo is more than enough.

@ OP - if you are getting the Intel rig and don't want to OC the gpu just get Corsair CX430v2 - it's enough for HD7850.

is there any way to be sure??
also is the i5 2400 enough for 1280x1024 gaming? i know the gpu can handle much more than that with enthusiast settings maybe.

AMD Radeon? HD 7850 Graphics
official website says 500w or greater needed for psu.
please help!!
420w or 500w+??

 

[101gamzer]

Core i3 would do at 1080p Gaming if you want Core i3 RiG here is it If your going for 2400 it will not make sense because 2400 is good but it is good to get 'K' Processor i3 could handle HD Gaming without breaking a sweat.

Intel Core i3 2100 3.1 Ghz
AsusP8H61 or Gigabyte H61-D2H or gigabyte ga-h61n-usb3(if you want USB 3.0)
Corsair Value RAM 4GB DDR3
Seasonic 520W
CoolerMaster Elite 310
GPU could pair with anything you wish

AMD Phenom II X4 960T @ 7K
Asus M5A88M @ 5.4K
Corsair 4GB X 1 1333 MHz DDR3 @ 1.2K
MSI HD 6850 Cyclone Power Edition @ 9.9K
Corsair CX 430 V2 @ 2.2K
Zebronics 800 VA @ 1.8K
total will be around 28k

 

[amruth kiran]

but even i5 2400 is better than i3 2100, even if not as good as "k". so shouldt that be the first option

also the intel rig is better. i gotta budget till 35k so...

core i5 2400 is suitable for 1280*1024 gaming - actuall the cpu+gpu can even games at 1080P and 1200P resolution easily

500W is just a typical recommendation and core i5 2400+HD7850 don't has any serious power requirements - so Corsair CX430v2 is enough but for OCing the GPU CX500Wv2 is what you should get.

go for Intel rig mate. i5 2400 and 7850 is the best gaming combo for your budget. You donot really need a K series processor unless you are really into overclocking. You will get great performance with the i5 2400 so you donot need to OC.

 

[amruth kiran]

^^ thanks thetechfreak. good reassurance
the processor and gpu are done for.
i need a solid mobo with usb 3. is this enough gigabyte ga-h61n-usb3 ??

or good 'ol intel Intel DH67CL Motherboard | Motherboard | Flipkart.com

 

[topgear]

^^ try to get H61M/U3S3 but don't pay more than ~4.7k for this or else opt for the Intel DH67CL ( B3 ).

 

[amruth kiran]

thats a real good choice. but its out of stock at flipkart, not available in itwares gotta check locally , any other sites where it can be bought??

this is the only one i found . cheapest with usb 3.0 Theitdepot - Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H 32GB DDR3 Intel Motherboard

should i consider this or just buy a good h67 mobo or h61 mobo without usb 3.0 and buy the usb 3.0 adapter(pci) later on...???

 

[d6bmg]

^^ PCI-E to USB3 cards costs ~800/-
So, why don't you but Intel DH67-CL at the first place?

 

[amruth kiran]

is that the only option??
