If you want a new rig then you should definitely make a new thread, you'll get better response there. Just fill the template for new rig and make a new thread, very simple.

Excellent prices abhisek. Cilus spoke with me tonight and gave me all the story. Prices of 7870 duo is simply too good along with other components.
Now just order asap and build that ultimate rig. :)

Yeah I'll, just after the confirmation from Cilus tomorrow. I guess I'll pay them tomorrow itself and if it'll be late for NEFT then day after tomorrow for sure. :)

Guys I guess I'll get a SSD real soon so suggestions would be welcome. I am thinking about these two
Corsair Force Series GT 120 GB SSD Internal Hard Drive (CSSD-F120GBGT-BK)
Corsair Force Series 3 120 GB SSD Internal Hard Drive (CSSD-F120GB3A-BK)

Please tell me if there are better options available at better prices. :)

Well here is my little piece of info AFAIK Microsoft will not release DirectX 11.1 for Windows 7 or lower :shock: it will be exclusively for Windows 8 users so the future games will require this Cr*p it is really good to keep some money aside for buying Windows 8 which will be a nice update

Now I think Microsoft is also following the Apple's way.:|

Kingston 120GB HyperX SSD

Crucial 128GB m4 Solid State Drive

OCZ 128GB Vertex 4 SSD

If want to stick to Corsair, get this:-

Corsair 120GB Neutron SSD

You can add another one later in RAID 0, for some serious speed. ;)

PS: There's more options within 10k, if you want to increase your budget.

Well TBH hardly any game requires DX11 as of now so 11.1 is quite far. Also who needs money to use Microsoft products specially when they are slapped on to you. :D:-8

Kingston 120GB HyperX SSD

Crucial 128GB m4 Solid State Drive

OCZ 128GB Vertex 4 SSD

Oh boy. Please give me one option, also I would't do RAID with SSD like ever. I would rather buy a 2TB HDD with that money, I am buying it just for performance.

Who needs a SSD for anything else? BTW, how many games you keep installed at a time?

And applications?

I guess 120GB will do. I play RPGs which takes like 30GB to get installed but I don't play more than 2-3 games simultaneously. As for Applications right now nothing special but maybe after some time I would work on heavy softwares. :)

If ASS is important then stick with Corsair, else Vertex 4. Try to search if Samsung 830 is available within your budget, that will be the best.

I am thinking about changing RAM to G skill after advice from sumon, I hope that Vedant Computers have that in stock at a good price. :)

Which one has better performance and is the ASS of OCZ is bad or something ??

No idea about ASS of OCZ, but Corsair you know. Performance-wise Vertex 4 has a bit of edge. Check this:-

I have the Vertex 3, and using with no pagefile and zero issue for almost a year. But given the present situation of OCZ, might be wise to go for something else.

Then I guess I'll opt for Corsair 120GB available at around 6200 INR. :)

Update - Finalized the deal for most of the products with Vedant Computers. Will pay them tomorrow. :)
