Is EVGA e-7100/630i Mainboard better at 3160 + tax

OR

Palit N73V
Chipsets: MCP73V (GeForce™ 7050 / nForce 610i) at 2665 + tax

Or is there any better equivalent out there at the same price point.

Personally speaking i am more interested in Palit coz i would be buying a 8600 (6-8k) card or may be MSI 8800GT OC Edition (13k) if i could stretch a bit though i may have to settle for 17" crt instead of a 19" or 22" lcd coupled with E2160 which i would overclock to some extent

Now i come to have two options, plz suggest which would be better:

Palit MB + E2160 [Rs. 2665 + Rs. 2750 = Rs. 5415]
corsair 2GB 667mhz [Rs. 2200]
Seagate 320GB [Rs. 3600]
Cabinet + Kb n Mouse Combo [Rs. 2000]
DVD writer [Rs. 1350]


Option 1:

8800GT OC + 17" CRT [Rs. 12900 + Rs. 4700 = Rs. 17600]

Option 2

XFX 8600GT (Or any better equivalent you people suggest in 5-7k range)+ 19" LCD [Rs. 5200 + 9500 = Rs. 14700]

P.S. If I go with option 1 , will my mb or procii act as a bottleneck for 8800 or the difference would be unnoticiable??

@ramsingh,
Well, i would recommend a Quad ofcourse! E8400 is ofcourse better in terms of fabrication and frequency rating. Though, considering the future prospect, i believe C2Q 6600 should be the choice. Regarding CRT, i would suggest LG or Viewsonic. Just dont go with Samsung! :p and yeah, u should buy atleast 600VA UPS for that config!

@beanstalk,
About, bottleneck...i would say may be ur processor could be. And go for DDR2-800 RAM modules atleast plus choose WD instead of Seagate. One more thing, go with Palit or MSI 8600GT model with 512MB DDR3. That'll cost u around 5.5K! Just make sure u dont go with XFX!! Atleast for 8600GT GPU! :p
Rest is good..

mayank is right about the processor!

If u can't utilize the potential of something then is equal to garbage bag.

Those N73 boards aren't much of an overclocker's thing.

In this case i 'de suggest AMD.

EVGA is anydays better than Palit but neither models mentioned by you will be good for overclocking.

If you can't afford an LCD for the time being, get a second hand 17" for the time being and after few months get the LCD when prices will drop further.

No my frnd, its not like that. Infact even used to prefer Seagate for the period. However, WD has better reputation than Seagate including performance. Plus, the prices are very scalable, then why bother going for Seagate instead of Western Digital. ;)
About, the failure percentage, i would say that i really had bad experiences with Seagate PATA! :( However, i know that SATA drives has comparatively less F.Rates. So, u see its just the matter of perception, nothing more than that.

Seagate used to have crappy performance and more failure rates, even i am also one of the sufferer. But that was past!
Now days seagate is considered as most efficient HDD available. Those with 16MB buffers are heck of a deal!
Even top websites also recommend SEAGATE over any other brand.

Google around for some performance charts and see for urself!
