1st link is for the Ti version, I was not talking of that.
If the Zotac one is non-Ti, then its HUGELY overpriced!!!
And Bitfang doesn't have any non-Ti 560.
Hmm Ok. Sorry my bad.

Everyone, don't suggest something which is not at all available and comes under lots of if else condition.
For example this GTX 560 Non Ti discussion. It is not readily available apart from the Zotac version which is highly overpriced.
And Vicky, if it is priced @ 11.5-12K then it is a good buy.....does anyone have any idea about the price of it? The only one available is priced at 14.5K, higher than the Asus Direct Cu GTX 560 Ti version. So how can we recommend it?
And regarding alarming, there is no such cards now a day (apart from the older GTX 400 series) which actually give alarming temperature and power consumption, when compared to the performance they offer. So we have to decide it in a relative manner, not in absolute scale.

1. Should I buy from ebay Global? Anyone has RMA experience with this?
2. Am I correct in assuming that the 430 doesn't come with bundled fans?
3. Will the FSP Saga 500 be enough for this?
4. Where will I find/get the best prices on these components?
5. I'll get better cooling when I fall behind the gaming performance curve, so till then will the stock CPU cooler and the case airflow manage the heat?
6. Is the G2222HDL the most VFM 22" LED in the market? Thats what I thought...Samsungs and LGs are too expensive.

2. 430 comes with a front blue LED fan.
3. i suggest looking at Corsair GS600 for 4k
4. look at smcinternational.in
5. why spending on fans? you dont need them. get a Sapphire 6870 for 11200 instead. if you want 6850 only, get MSI R6850 Cyclone 1GD5 Power Edition
6. another option - DELL ST2220L for 8700

1. No clue on ebay buying, huh? Hope someone can tell me.
and just 9.8k. and its almost as good as 6870. I'm in love with it
Just that fan, right...will that provide a good airflow? Shouldn't I have some more fans when CPU is on stock cooling?
Ups the budget another 2K.... What about the VX450W or the VX 550?
I like the fan on this Cyclone, Jas..

No from my side.
2500K with stock cooler is far better than 2600K with stock cooler in temperature comparison. So you don't need to worry much. IMO get 120mm fan and set @ back of cabi for exhaust and you are good to go for now.
Get GS600 in IMO else you can opt vx550@ 0.6-0.9K more.
I like the fan on this Cyclone, Jas..
Get Sapphire HD6870 if you don't buy fans. 6870 Worth extra money. Yes Cyclone is as good as 6870 stock when OCed not at stock. Check here. But you can OC 6870 too. So think about it.
With default settings G2222HDL is better than ST2220L. Saw side by side with my own eyes. Can't say about changed settings.
I have recently purchased my cabinet from ebay. If you don't spending some extra then it is very good and reliable. Just buy from some reputed seller.
More fans will improve airflow but for the time being just add one at rear. Better spend the budget on 6870 as suggested. Fans are really cheap at 400-500 bucks, you can always add them later, if you fell the need.
IMO, always get the best monitor and SMPS and mobo for your budget. Rest of the components you can easily upgrade. So if possible get the VX550.
I like the fan on this Cyclone, Jas..
As stated get earlier, get the 6870. Later add a fan and dust filter to the side panel which will help in cooling the graphics card.
If you are not sold on LED monitor, then get the Benq G2220HD at 7k. Else either of those two are good.
Sounds good.
Can't think of the 6870 @all cuz moving from the FSP SAGA to the the VX550/GS600 itself adds 2K. Can't add another 1.4K..even the Cyclone is just me paying 500 extra for the factory OC-ing and the cooling.
Precious data. Do you live in Mumbai...where did you see this comparison?
Did you buy from an indian seller? that I've done too, I meant the Global buy option, where I'm getting a good GA Z68 for a good price (vs local stores). I'm just concerned about RMAs if it turns out defective or dies on me when I'm OC-ing something.
Dust filter? Interesting. But there's enough slots for these in the CM 430 right?
I'm totally sold on LEDs, just not decided between the two of them. BenQ as a brand really doesn't register. My 15" Samsung CRT with my first PC is still going strong in its 11th year (after being carted around the country 2-3 times in sleeper class trains, too!) . And I paid less for it than I'm about to pay for this now. So I'm concerned. Quality AND durability.
I'm just being REALLY cautious about the whole thing because I don't want to fry something immediately or see it go pfft in a year or two because I OC'ed it too much or it wasn't cooled enough.
For monitors, reading this... BenQ vs Dell 22"
Ok then cyclone it is.
OOps!!! just miss it. no idea of global easypay.
I think so. There's a thread at TDF for this cabby. Check it.
I am currently using Benq (24"). It is good. Colors are vibrant with very little backlight bleeding. Previously I owned a Dell (18.5"). Although no direct comparison can be made due to size and res etc., colors in Dell was a bit dull. Both are equally good though. If you have reservations, go for the Dell. Ultimately you have limited options for comparisons. Its your home and not a test lab.
So far, I've got this. have also updated where I know the source of the prices, thanks to all of you.
But some others, I need to know if I can shave off a few hundreds per component and get the best price.
At the same time, i want to be sure nothing in this rig will be a bottleneck. Like this RAM.
Should I get a 1333Mhz RAM with lower latency or stick with this?
Why pay for something high-end and discover that something else is crashing its party.. Excuse my ignorance.

Got it.
WISH it was a test lab, you know? I'd go for a BenQ with eyes closed if there was a reasonable price difference, cuz the specs are good, except the DCR, where the Dell wins out. Static contrast is the same 1000:1 anyway.I am currently using Benq (24"). It is good. Colors are vibrant with very little backlight bleeding. Previously I owned a Dell (18.5").

Stick with your RAM. Check this: G.Skill Sniper 1866 MHz DDR3 Memory Kit | G.Skill,Sniper,1866 MHz,DDR3,System,Memory,Benchmark,Gaming,Performance,Review,Austin Downing,G.Skill Sniper 1866 MHz DDR3 System Memory Kit Benchmark Gaming Performance Review by Austin Downing
No need to go for lower speed, lower latency RAM.
And as I have mentioned, if you feel going for Dell, get it. Ultimately its you who will use the monitor, and unlike other parts of the computer you are rarely going to feel any bottleneck with the quality of your monitor.
Yeah those LED monitors are mean.
And the g2222HDL is 8.85K at theitwares, while the st2220l is 8.8K at most places, including smc. still tough to decide.
But with this above config, any way i can get the total down to at least 48k? Where do i get the 2500K for 10.5k, the vengeance for 2.5k etc? What are the delivery charges for places like Primeabgb, SMC and theitwares?
Will I keep asking questions even after I've bought all the stuff and assembled?

Only way I can make any savings on buying from Lynx is to order a lot of components so it offsets the 360 (surface) or 600 (air) shipping n 2500k is 10840 on lynx, and the z68-d3h motherboard isnt available. let me have a look thru. Thanks for the info. Lynx was down for a few days I think, and I thought the site had shut shop.
Also isn't VX550/GS600 enough for crossfire?
I'm gonna ask a few things that might be at least slightly annoying.
Suppose I can settle for non-Full HD gaming, so a 20" monitor, with a GPU that can perform well at up to 1680 x 1050, will the clarity of full-HD movies be affected ? Because if its only to do with the size of the screen, I can make do with 20".
Cuz future proofing is killing my budget.
Also this Intel link
says that the 2500k supports DDR3-1066/1333Mhz RAM. So would a 1600MHz RAM work/perform fully?

Lynx India's shipping goes through the roof for Mumbai, man. Cant do that. So maybe SMC also will charge high shipping. Am I stuck with choosing between primeabgb and theitwares, or are there other places where I can get a bargain for this?
