So, Today after I got my High School Result , I now think it's time for a major upgrade . :twisted:

So, Here it is :

1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: From Most Priority to least : 3D Work in 3DS Max / Cinema4D , Composting/VFX (After Effects),1080p Gaming,Web Designing , Programming , Watching Movies and Surfing the Internet.

2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 60k (not a penny more, cant even be raised by 1k)

3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: Yeah (But Not out of the box, probably after 5-6 months)

4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Windows 7 64bit , Ubuntu 12.04

5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 500 GB

6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans: No, I dont want to buy a Monitor. I Will reuse my current Monitor - It is LGM237WA - 23" /60 Hz /1080p.

7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: Monitor, Keyboard,Mouse,Speaker,UPS

8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: June (Probably First or Second Week)

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Yes I have built many before.

10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: Kanpur , I can Shop online From Flipkart .

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: Well I would Like to say that I am in no hurry of buying a CPU cooler will wait some months to buy it. I also came up with this Config -

Intel Core i7 2600k
ASRock Z77 Pro4 Motherboard
8GB G.Skill 1600 Mhz
500 GB WD Blue
Asus Sata DVD RW
Sapphire HD 7850
CM 690 II (W/Transparent Side Panel) / Lancool PC-K62
Corsair GS 600


First Of All I am Thinking About Going with that mobo as its Z77 and is cheaper than many of ASUS . I am going with a very less Motherboard Budget , so it seemed good to me . Alternatively I was looking for MSI Z68A-G45-G3 . Both Boards are not the best overclockers, but that is what I want , I would never go more than 4.2 Ghz.

I was thinking about Corsair 400r as Cabby but it aint gotta Transparent side panel on it , So I m thinking about CM 690 II . Lancool-pcK62 . So, Transparent Side panel should be must on Cabby.

Lastly , Core i7 2600k seemed the best for me as I work a lot in 3D and Composting Softwares and Gaming is not the priority but it cant be neglected.

BMG ftw!!
Both MSI Z68A-G45-G3 and ASRock Z77 Pro4 are not good choices.
Why you are planning to get a *cheap* board when you are spending 18K for processor?
At least get Asus P8Z68-M PRO or P8Z68-V/gen3.
Yes, I'm talking about Z68.
There is no use of getting Z77 with 2nd gen SB processors. Simply waste of money.

@OP : You have such heavily multi threaded applications to work with. Why don't you think of an AMD FX based configuration?

Well I can consider an i5 2500k but not FX (its way out of league here).
And well I have seperate budget for different things - its like 16k for Graphics Card- so I can Forget HD 7870 .

@rajatGod512

if your budget is 16k for graphic card then go for amd radeon hd 7850.
Also buy a cpu cooler like CM hyper 212 evo.

Intel Core i5 2500k @12.5k
ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 @10k
RAM 2 x G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 4GB @3k
GPU Radeon HD 7850 @15.6k
HDD WD Caviar Blue 500 GB @4k
Optical Drive Asus DRW-24B3ST@1.1k
Case Corsair carbide 400r @5k
PSU SeaSonic S12 II 620 @4.6k
Cpu cooler CM hyper 212 evo @2.1k

total=58k

CM advanced 690 II is a good enough cabinet.Get it over standard version of 690II for front usb3.0

Why everyone suggesting AsRock Z77 Extreme4 for a 60K config?

IMHO, no.

Bodhisatwa said:
Then for gpu-nvidia 560ti
Click to expand...

560ti is previous gen card. HD7850 is way better than 560ti. (Unless you are suggesting 560ti being a nvidia fanboy)

dfcols71 said:
d6bmg dont you think if op going to use 1600mhz ram it better to go with z77
Click to expand...

What 1600MHz RAM is to do with suggesting Z77 board?
With Z68, one can OC upto 2133MHz.
With Z77 one can OC upto 2800MHz.
Don't worry about the top limit as you won't get good RAM kit over 1600 CL9 at a good price.

ok that should be good .

(as a personal frnd) oye ...But mATX board really! When you were buying what did others told you when you were asking everyone about building your pc.

P.S. Is your Sapphire HD 7850 the OCed version.
