thanks for those configaration, forgot to mention I need wireless keyboard & mouse, how much would they cost

 

[vickybat]

^^ 1.3k minimum for the basic logitech and microsoft ones.

Gtx 560-ti + fsp saga is not an ideal choice. 560 is very power hungry especially the hawk. Go for a corsair GS 600 @ 3.8k

@ mukherjee, we have overshot OP's budget by some distance. So something's need to be considered.

Still 1.5k over OP's budget. A 6870 may be considered in place of 560Ti/6950. Also the Intel mobo is not dual graphics capable as per requirement of OP. The Gigabyte H67M-D2-B3is 5.5k, has 2 PCI-e slots but the 2nd slot is x4 and its only Crossfire capable so 560ti will be out of contention.

#2 Gaminc PC (AMD) 50k

Phenom II X4 955B.E. @ 6.7k
MSI 880GMA-E45 USB3.0 @ 5.4k
Corsair 2x2=4GB XMS3 DDR3 1600MHz C9 @ 3k
Sapphire HD6870 1GB VAPOR-X @ 12k
Corsair VX450W @ 3.5k
NZXT Gamma @ 2k
Dell ST2320L 23" FULL HD LED @ 9.8k
Seagate 1TB @ 2.7k
Logitech MX 518 @ 1.4k or Razer Abyssus @ 1.4k
MS Comfort Curve 2000 @ 1.1k

For gaming, SNB is preferable IMO.

It seems the dual card config and GTX560 Ti just fell outta the boat...to meet the budget

 

[darth_vader1280]

it seems there aren't many intel boards with 2 pic-e slots in the price range of 5-6k. i think amd would be a cheaper option. how good is this config



AMD Phenom II 955 X4 : Rs5500
G-Skill F3-12800CL9S-4GBRL : Rs2200
corsair GS 600 PSU :Rs3800
Seagate 1TB HDD : Rs2700
NZXT Gamma : Rs2000
DELL IN2020M : Rs6300
MSI HD6950 Twin Frozr III/OC : Rs15900
Logitech Wireless Combo MK260 :Rs1100

which of these Motherboards is good, i'm not keen with the msi board cause it's mATX

Asrock 890GX EXTREME 3 :Rs7200
ECS A890GXM :Rs7200
MSI 890GXM-G65 :Rs7000

 

[vickybat]

^^ Go for the asrock.

 

[mukherjee]

^^dunno if Asrock is available here...MSI imo

 

[darth_vader1280]

what about the ram, those motherboards were not listed on its qualified list, does it mean it won't work at it's full potential, and how much performance difference are we going to see b/w MSI HD6950 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC and MSI HD6950 Twin Frozr II/OC

it is available on lynx-india, what about ECS

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

where is 560ti hawk for 14k?

6950 PE has more oc potential and is cooler.

Asrock 890GX EXTREME 3 :Rs7200
ECS A890GXM :Rs7200
MSI 890GXM-G65 :Rs7000

That Asrock board is one of the best boards available out there but the sad thing is it is long gone from lynx-india but is still listed in their web site. Iwas planning to buy that board but after the availability issue, I've switched to MSI 89GXM-G65.

Guess the Intel DH67BL supports a max of 1333 mHz. So should not go for 1600 mHz RAM suggested.

 

[ryuzaki21]

I would strongly recommend that you wait for 990 g chipset if you plan to go in for an AMD config.....If bulldozer lives up to all the hype that is.

Thanks edited.

Is wireless really necessary?? If yes then go with your AMD config

where is 560ti hawk for 14k?

Linx-india

 

[darth_vader1280]

when i connect to the tv i will have to sit 15ft away from the cpu. i don't think the new boards will be in my budget.
