After a long wait, I have finally decided to upgrade my PC. Now my main use of this rig would be entry level/mid level gaming, multimedia (MP3 songs and HD movies) and ocing. I would also use Photoshop, developer tools, Maya 3d (a little).
I am willing to spend about 50-55k (max 60k) to build a decent future proof that will not need any major upgrade for about 2 years. But I would continue to upgrade my computer with time (gfx card for example). Now this is what I have thought about till now
Mobo: Asus P5B Dlx (10,500)-I have heard its a great overclocker
Proccessor: I am stuck between E6300 and E4300. Also, will overclocking these give me as good a performance as an E6600. (Not really as good, but somewhere close.)
Monitor: Definetely a 19" LCD WS, can someone suggest a cheap but good monitor?
RAM: 2 x 1gb ddr2 Kingston 667 Mhz-I am not sure about the price here.
Hard Drive: 2 x 250 GB-I defintely need atleast 500GB as I have a lot of movies, songs, applications etc. Again, what would be the price.
Graphic Card: 7600GT-I havent been playing PC games for quite some time, so this card would keep me happy for the time being playing some older games. I will upgrade once ATI also release their series of DX10 cards. Whats the cheapest deal I could get for this?
These are the main components done. Now, since I will watch HD movies, I will need a good 5.1 speaker. I am really confused regarding this now. I need some advise on this.
I could do with wireless Keyboard and mouse for now. I think it will cost about Rs 800.
Now the other components. What would be a cabinet, which has many features, looks sleek, and can be moddeed easily? I am looking for one with a transparent window. Also, Ive heard its always better to buy a seperate PSU. Would 400W be sufficient to power this rig? Regarding the UPS, I know its an essential part of the system. So which one should I get?
Thanks in advance for the advise.
PS Since I live in New Delhi, I would appreciate if you can quote Delhi prices.
