Gaming Rig for a budget of around 65K

[Cilus]

Cooler Master GX series does have very bad reviews in all the reputed sites like Johnyguru and Kitguru and these two sites are known as the best PSU reviewers. VS series is also very cheap and low quality product and only launched for Asian market, not available anywhere outside. They are okay for Office PC where the Computer never reaches the maximum load. But for a Gaming system, it should be avaoided at all cost.
And at the same price point if better products are available then why not buy them.

And regarding Bavusani's comment that he is using a Corsair VS series and that's why it is best and everybody should use it; plenty of people use graphics cards like HD 7750 or HD 770 with VIP, Zebronics or Frontec PSU and they work normally for some times. Does that mean we should start suggesting people getting Zebronics PSU from now on?

CM Gx series have/had some ok products like the newer gx450 but also had mediocre or lower quality products like the older gx650.
VS series is not required here.Older vs450 and newer have relatively inferior capacitors(kinda okish).
When we have better options then why go for something inferior/not tested.

I like H440 more. It is a killer and it comes pre-loaded with 3x120mm fans in the front and 1x140mm fan in the rear. BTW, can you suggest me a good place(online or local) to get this cabinet for a cheaper price?

The 6k quote in the first post is the lowest I have come across for that.Online it is higher than that.

I need a PSU that comes with two 6+2/8 pin PCI-e connectors. This one has only one 8 pin. So I don't wanna go with this. How about Corsair GS600?

you can go with molex converters. may come with your gpu itself. that seasonic is a strong unit.
corsair gs 600 is also good.

But I just bought a Corsair VS550 and its working fine.

buy cooler master thunder 450/ extreme plus 650 tomorrow and start suggesting it.

i think its the sapphire vapor-x only which isn't going through any artifacting issue(correct me if I'm wrong), so op has made a wise choice.

Also just wanted to ask if the Seasonic S12II 620W psu is incapable of powering a r9 280x without any molex converters?

And sorry for budging in.

Well, guys! I think I'll go with Corsair GS600 600 watt PSU. Is that good product or does it use "poor capacitors"?

Yeah, I checked the price at PrimeABGB. It costs Rs. 8,400. Do you know any place where I can get it for a better price?

I don't know about that but what I'm saying is, when another good product(Corsair GS600) with a few bucks less that comes with two 6+2 PCI-e connectors, I would go with it.

I didn't get the PSU part. S12II 620 has enough juice to power even a R9 290. R9 280X needs two 8 Pin connectors whereas S12II 620 comes with one. So you can convert one of the normal power connector to a 8 Pin connector using a Molex converter which normally comes with the GPU package. It is just a adapter to convert the input power interface, nothing to do with increasing/decreasing the power.

Oops.. First time PC builder. So, pardon me! So, using the Molex converter to convert the normal input connector to an 8-pin connector is an easy job, right?

I am using a r9 290 with the mentioned Seasonic PSU. So chillax.
Go by Cilus's suggestion

Yeah, cool. I'll get the Seasonic S12II 620. It's just a few hundred bucks more. I've no idea how to use a molex converter. If you have any "tutorial" or "how to" video or guide regarding the same, please help me!

And friends, do you know any particular place where I could get computer components for a better price?

When you get the converters with your GPU you will know how to connect. Don't worry

no it doesn't............

The Vapor-X model does require two 8 pins. The Dual X is the one that requires one 6 pin and one 8 pin.
