Haswell Gaming PC under 50k

[bssunilreddy]

If bought the below config from *theitdepot.com then its coming to as:

Intel Xeon E3 1230 v2 -16540,
Gigabyte H77-DS3H -6725,
Asus R9 270X 2GB -17580,
APC 1100VA UPS -5890,
CM Hyper 101 -1225,
CM 120mm 3 RED LED fans -2100,
CM 140mm 2 RED LED fans -1500.
TOTAL -51,560.

But if I buy the same above config from *amazon.com then its coming to as Rs.42,000.
Which is better and please anyone tell me should I pay customs duties or not? What about RMA if bought from amazon?

Is it a new thread or the old one renamed?
BTW, you have a very wrong idea about shipping and release of an Processor date. Shipping happens before the official release and after release the component(s) gets available in the market. AM has started started shipping Kaveri APU long back and after 14thJan, they will be available and within February, in India.

Read here: AnandTech Portal | AMD Kaveri APU Launch Details: Desktop, January 14th

why a liquid cooler ? why no 270x??

 

[ASHISH65]

oh man why you are going with gtx 650ti boost again where you can get r9 270x ?? water cooler for xeon ???

 

[avinandan012]

probably both are ing

 

[rijinpk1]

probably both are ing

who are those two persons?

 

[ASHISH65]

Sorry I forgot.I think my present HP 800VA UPS will support this config even while gaming so there is no need for any new UPS as I have recently upgraded with a new battery for 800VA.
I have asked for a quotation of the below config from mdcomputers.

Intel Xeon E3 1225 v3 -16000,
Gigabyte H87M-D3H -7400,
Sapphire R9 270X 2GB Dual-X -15800,
Corsair H60 2013 Edition -4500,
CM 120mm 3 RED LED fans -1200,
CM 140mm 2 RED LED fans -1300.
TOTAL -46,200.

Source for Intel Xeon price:INTEL XEON PROCESSOR E3 1225 V3 (E3-1225 V3 - 1225 V3 - - 16,746.00)
Source for Sapphire R9 270X Price:SAPPHIRE GRAPHICS CARD DUAL-X R9 270X 2GB DDR5 OC (R9-270X -DUAL-X-OC - R9-270X -DUAL-X-OC - - 19,500.00)

 

[ASHISH65]

you cannot overclock xeon e3 1225 v3 cpu.





No point of getting water cooler,instead get a basic cooler like CM hyper 101 - it is enough

Try to get Gtx 760 if you can

Why to go for E3-1225 V3? It does not have hyper threading. Reason to go for Xeon processors is to have hyper threading rather than over clocking capabilities so that you could get consistent performance for long run.

 

[rijinpk1]

xeon E3-1225 V3 is based on haswell architecture.

 

[mastermunj]

Haswell doesn't have great overall improvement. Especially when one can get hyper threading available at reasonable price point, its a go deal.

Let me make a final build for you :

Intel Xeon E3 1230 v2 -16540

Gigabyte H77-DS3H -6725

Zotac gtx 760 2gb -20500

CM Hyper 101 -1000

CM 120mm 3 RED LED fans -2100,

CM 140mm 2 RED LED fans -1500.

Total -@ 48,965

you can add 4k more for r9 280x

This I did not know.How stupid? OK.Thanks.I saw that it has iGPU so it might be overclocked I thought.I am so stupid.

i think u can get r9 280x for around 23k

 

[rijinpk1]

i dont think he will get it. he needs to save electricity.

Instead of going with Intel E3-1230 v2 which has Motherboard's that has support for 2xSATA3 & 2xUSB3.0 it is better to go with Haswell MB+CPU.Here what is more important is a GPU which is powerful and can withstand another 2-3 years at most.So at present PC Games does not support hyper threading it is meaning less to go with Intel E3-1230 v2 which is also older gen compared to the latest 1150 chipset.Hence its better to go with:

Intel Core i5 4570 -14000,
Gigabyte H87-D3H -7800,
Zotac GTX760 2GB AMP -20700,
Zalman CNPS7000C-CU -2000,
CM 120mm 3 BLUE LED fans -1200,
CM 140mm 2 BLUE LED fans -1400,
Gelid PWM Y 2 Cables -900.
TOTAL -48,000.

The remaining 2k is for a HDMI cable and assembler charges.Hope you like my config.

I heard that Asrock H87-Fatality MB has a special ability to OC 4670K where only Z87 MB's have that ability but the price is devastating where a good Z87 MB will come at that price of Asrock H87-Fatality.Its best suited for people who have deep pockets only and I am not one of them.

 

[ASHISH65]

hmm.its good. now that is final rig. donot change anything

assembling is damn easy - why you are paying to assembler ?
