GAMING PC UNDER 55000 Rs.

^^ XMS3 has a working voltage of 1.65 Volt whereas Sandybridge mobo has 1.5V DIMM slots. There are few compatibility issues reported by the Sandybridge users. That is why XMS3 is not recommended for Sandybridge. Instead OP can go for Corsair Vengeance 4 GB @ 2.45K

 

[comp@ddict]

^^ as Clius says.

At that budget, I recommend stretch by 5k and grab the HD6950 instead. Much more future proof.

 

[anirbanfifa]

yeah i am sticking to this config:-


1.Intel i5 2500K:- Rs.10,200

2.Gigabyte Z68XUD3R-B3:- Rs.10,200
OR
Gigabyte Z68XUD4-B3:- Rs.12,200

3.1 TB Western Digital HDD:- Rs.2,575

4.Corsair Vengeance 4GB 1600Mhz:- Rs.2,450

5.Cooler Master TX650 PSU :- Rs.5,200

6.BENQ G2210:- Rs.8,400

7.Cooler Master Elite 430(with transparent side:- Rs.2,750

8.MSI HD6950 Twin Frozer 3 2GB :- Rs.15,900

9.LG 22X SATA DVD:- Rs.900

10.Logitech Combo Wireless KB & Mouse:- Rs.1075


Now my problem is with the MB. Should I go for the MB what is in the list or go with MBs having onboard video output(which i need) like:

GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3


Please suggest me motherboards within 12,000 that has on board video output and supports Lucid Logic Virtue

 

[shayem]

then ask MD if they can arrange
ASUS ROG Maximus IV GENE-Z
or
Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3
or
Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3
or
get Asus P8Z68-V @12300

 

[anirbanfifa]

thnx bro

i will choose from the following


ASUS ROG Maximus IV GENE-Z

Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3

Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3

Asus P8Z68-V

To me Asus P8Z68-V feels better than ASUS ROG Maximus IV GENE-Z.

Can you tell me except for the Creative X-Fidelity sound card(ASUS ROG Maximus IV GENE-Z) whats the important differences between them.

 

[nilgtx260]

ASUS ROG Maximus IV GENE-Z is better I can say, now it's up to u.

 

[Zapper]

^^Asus P8Z68 V has Bluetooth, 2 Extra Sata 6GBPS Port and is an ATX motherboard and also has more PCI ports

 

[anirbanfifa]

hey guys, you all have helped me a lot with your prompt replies. I want all your acknowledgement on this final list of mine:-


MOTHERBOARD:- ASUS ROG Maximus IV GENE-Z

Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3

Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3

Asus P8Z68-V

PROCESSOR:- INTEL i5 2500K

GRAPHICS CARD:- MSI HD 6950 TWIN FROZER III/OC

RAM:- G.Skill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL or 4GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE

MONITOR:- BenQ G2220HD

CABINET:- Cooler Master Elite 430(with transparent side)

PSU:- Cooler Master TX650 PSU

HDD:- 1 TB Western Digital HDD or SEAGATE HDD

My new revised budget is around 60K-65K. It would be better if it is withing 60K. So if any changes are required please let me know. And please tell whether my shortlisted motherboards are OK or not.

To be honest I am inclined towards ASUS motherboards. In what respect are they better than Gigabyte Z68 MOBOS.

 

[comp@ddict]

Again I say, get a BETTER CABINET. THe HD6950 is a BIG card.

Cooler Master CM690 @ 4.2k
Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 @ ??
4GB Corsair Vengeance @ 2.4k
Corsair GS 600W @ 4.5k
BenQ G2222HDL (LED) @ 8.5k

Get the better monitor and cabinet.

 

[anirbanfifa]

he bro. what do you say. if i can afford 12,000 Rs. should I go for ASUS motherboard or Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 OR Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3

is there any significant difference between
Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD2H-B3 and GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 OR Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3

and between Gigabyte GA-Z68X-D2H-B3 and GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 OR Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3
is more than enough.

let me tell you. my motherboard budget is 9.5 to 12K. But it will be good if it remains within 10K as then I can invest on a larger Cabinet. Will the Gigabyte give same performance as ASUS. Just clarify this point for me. And which one will be appropriate for me. If i am spending so much then 1K more can be spent to make it more future proof. So bros please suggest. I am still inclined towards asus . AM i right

 

[comp@ddict]

I think UD3H has more solid caps and a better power circuitry. But unless you'll go extreme Overclocking, you wouldn't really need it

In that case, grab the cheapest of the Gigabyte Z68 motherboards, which I reckon to be 9.5k (UD2H)

 

[anirbanfifa]

hey guys as I need OC so is OCing in ASUS MBs is easier than Gigabyte MBs(Interface wise) or is it the same.

To be honest which one is better among ASUS and gigabyte. Is there quality difference between them.
