AMD X4 640 @ 4.5k
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H @ 4.5k
Sapphire HD 6850 Toxic @ 10.5k
Corsair 1333MHz 4GB @ 2.3k
Seagate 1TB 7200.12 @ 2.7k
Dell ST2220L @ 8.7k
NZXT Gamma @ 2k
Corsair VX450W @ 3.5k
APC 1.1KVA @ 5k
LG DVD Sata @ 0.9k
Altec Lancing VS2621 @ 1.5k
KB/Mouse @ 1k
Total @ 47.1

Can play pretty much any game on high.

PS I can maybe fit a Sandybridge rig in this budget but you'll have to wait for 2 months as their is a slight problem with Intel Mobos.

Get Xbox 360 Controller for Windows for 1.3k

^^ i would suggest a 1055t instead of 955be in the above config. The reason is the x6 is bit better in multithreaded apps and can be used in a gaming rig. The 6870 will take care of all gaming requirements.

The rest of the config is fine. Since sandybridge is out of the picture for a while, x6 chips make a bit of sense of futureproofing. Games are going to utilise more than 4 cores and crysis 2 is a big example.

 

[coderunknown]

X6 if he is ready to OC. for gaming (he taken the names of game only) X4 is better. high clock. also i feel Crysis 2 maybe the only exception this yr. but low clock speed may hamper his gaming needs.

 

[vickybat]

^^ I don't thing there will be that much loss in frame rates between 955be and 1055t. Max 4-5fps here and there. Exceptions like crysis 2 will continue to pour in.

No point in going for amd quadcores now and x6 is the only option because sandybridge is out of the picture for a while.

1055t is a wonderful processor and op can't go wrong with it. Also try to fit a 1065t or 1075t if possible.

 

[CHALLENGER]

Ohh Great....Thanks for help.

Both Configuration r good. Another thing is waiting for 2 months is possible for me.

Why Sandybridge rig is good then above 2 Configurations?

Plez if possible explain me this Sandybridge rig in more detail.

 

[abirthedevil]

sandybridge outperforms every processor before it in everything, i5 2500k which costs 11k ish gives previous generations extreme series costing 50k ish a run for its money and some at the moment sandybridge chipsets have a problem so its suggested to wait it out till intel fix it also in a couple of months prices would go down a fair bit check sandybridge review below The Sandy Bridge Review: Intel Core i7-2600K, i5-2500K and Core i3-2100 Tested - AnandTech :: Your Source for Hardware Analysis and News

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

if you can wait 2-3 months go with sandybridge. wait for new mobos. till then expand your budget.

will you overclock?

 

[CHALLENGER]

Ya 2/3 month waiting is ok. Nope i am not going to overclock coz i really don't want to spend money on cooling

If i go for sandy bridge then which processor is better then amd x4 & with same price ?

--------------------------

If i go for ......

Dell IN 2020M = 6.5k
FSB SAGA ll 500w = 2.5k
Seagate 250gb HDD = ? [ Don't want much space. 250gb is more then enough. ]

Give me suggestions on above products... Thanks.

 

[vickybat]

All sandybridge quad cores are a lot better than current amd x4's and even x6's.

i5 2400, i5 2500 and i7 2600 are the hottest processors currently. Wait for the newer revised boards and pick your processor according to the budget.

=================================

About MB .... I don't want USB 3 & Sata lll. USB 2 & Sata ll is more then enough so is there any good mb with little low price ??

 

[vickybat]

^^ don't buy sb motherboards now. Wait for the revised ones to arrive.

 

[CHALLENGER]

No actually i am talking about mb for AMD processor. If i go for AMD x4 955BE then which MB is good with only usb 2.0 n SATA ll at low price ???

If I am going to purchase pc b4 sandy bridge then is this configuration ok ???


====================================================

Monitor = Dell IN 2020M = 6.5k

Cabinet = NZXT Gamma = 2k

Motherboard = Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H = 4k

Processor = AMD Athlon II X4 640 = 5k

RAM = Corsair XMS3 CMX4GX3M1A1333C9 4GB = 2.5k

PSU = FSB SAGA ll 500w = 2.5k

GPU = Sapphire HD 6850 Toxic = 10.5k

HDD = Seagate 500GB 7200.12 = 1.8k

UPS = APC 800VA = 3.5k

Keyboard = Logitech KB-200 = 0.5k

Mouse = Logitech MX518 = 1.2k

Headphones = Any = 0.5k

Joystick = Any = 0.5k

Total = 41K Approx.

=====================================================

Any Suggestions ?????

 

[rajan1311]

I would spend a bit more on the PSU mate...try for a VX450 ?

 

[CHALLENGER]

What about Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5770 / 1GB GDDR5 @ 7.8k ??? so that i will go for Corsair VX450. Medium settings is ok for me for high end games & i think dirt 2 game is coming with this card which is nice.

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

first you decide please. sandybridge or phenom
