Gaming pc config for 50k

Chosen of the Omnissiah
I found out that asus b85m-g has gotten bad reviews and gigabyte b85m-d3h and msi b85m-g43 are better. Which should I buy as there is hardly any price difference. Also I still feel msi 100me gtx 960 is better than zotac. Is it worth the price? Also by zotac do u mean amp edition or the normal?

Go with the following config with out doubt:

Intel Core i5 4440 - 11500,
Gigabyte B85M-D3H - 5500,
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB 1600MHz - 4500,
Deepcool Tesseract SW- 3300, (amazon.in)
WD Caviar Blue 1TB - 4200,
Dell S2240L 21.5" LED IPS -8000,
Antec VP500 - 3100,
Zotac GTX 960 2GB(normal) -16000,
Cooler Master Devastator Gaming Bundle -2900. (amazon.in)
TOTAL -59,000.


You can buy via EMI from snapdeal or flipkart & amazon.in as above specified prices are from them.

MSI 100ME GTX 960 has only 3 years warranty where as Zotac offers 2+3 yeasrs=5 years warranty if you register in their website after buying the GPU within 15 days.OK.

can you link us to some reviews? since there are some articles from credible sources that suggest gigabyte reduced the component quality in later revisions of D3H.

Spot the differences: Gigabyte motherboard revisions present markedly different test results - B85M-HD3 revision differences, including test results | Hardware.Info United States

i would suggest caution if you are thinking about the D3H.

1.the version is written on the box.
2.i didnt really find anything to substabtiate that claim.

Also...you were talking about the B85M-G43..the thread in erodov is talking about B85-G43? whihc is priced at around 10,200/-
So if your budget is increased to 10k then why not this?
Asus B85-PRO GAMER LGA1150 / 4th Generation Motherboard: Amazon.in: Electronics

Also the last thread seems like the case of bad pairings :D

I didn't see the b85-g43 difference:blush:
So my budget is still around 5000
So I guess I'll stick to ASUS b85m-g then.

I guess I'll go with b85m-g at Amazon where it's available for 6200
Is corsair cx500 better than antec vp500? Or any other?

Try looking for it locally, I think 6.2k is a little overpriced, I got it for 5k something (can't remember the exact amout atm) from Delhi.
Antect Vp500p is good.
