Looking for a config.....July 2010

[coderunknown]

Thanks for the respond


I am currently using 1 config , running win 7 (Sorry i forgot how win XP Looks like...The booting sequence... with Q9550+250GB Seagate sata and approx 30-40 programs installed including sonic+ableton+kaspersky.it takes approx 23 seconds to begin my task.
I am looking precise timing.....in win 7.

reduce all unnecessary startup programs. i have only 6 startup (2 for Audio, avast, comodo, task switch xp & DAP). & PC boots up within 25-30sec.

is it ?
i didnt know
my friend just told me i have cavier black of 10000rpm
and i thought in my mind that it was velociraptor but i didnt argue

open up the cabby & show him the speed thats usually mentioned as code. or maybe clearly mentioned.

ya, it must be velociraptor or he is lying..

yup. velocity raptor spins at 10,000 rpm but complete waste of money for a average desktop. better use SSD if someone have serious "Need for Speed".

why on earth are you going for a 850W PSU from Corsair?

also don't go for XFX. they use stock AMD design = more heat, noise. add to it if something happens, Rashi will say "thanks for purchasing XFX. please contact XFX. thank you".

when you willing to pay so much, try get the MSI HD5850. the one with the Twin Frozer II cooler. do check the cabinet well. the 6 & 8 pin may prove to a big problem (if they decided place it on the end of the card). it may touch the HDD rack & making it very hard to plug in the power connectors.

as a side note, just wait for SMC to include GTX460 in their pricelist. than you can estimate the price of the card at your place. & plan accordingly to go either way.

850W is that bad ?
MSI HD 5850 or GTX 460 which one is better ? and whats the price?

not bad but its too much. are you going for HD5870 Xfire?

thats why i told you to wait. GTX460 will be added to SMC's bedsite in this or next week. just keep an eye. they have the MSI HD5850 as well. so compare it directly.

Yes next year i will make it crossfire thats why i thought of 850W, or may be 1000W,but not yet confirmed....I dont want slow or lagging games on the LCD.

Actually first i will buy things that will not change for the next 3-5 years....Like i can reuse it ....Like cabinet,Another V8,Fans,Sound system,mouse(I own a razor mouse !
ddr3 ram etc....

I will buy the gpu at last.....so i will wait in that respect.

GUys....for my existing rig, i chalked down these two lcd's.

Dell UltraSharp U2311H 23"W
Alienware 21.5" AW2210 OptX Full HD LCD

Any suggestion......and price quote in kolkata & vendor will be an added help.

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

for crossfire you need only corsair tx650w not 1000W or 850w
hd5850 is better than gtx460 which in turn is better than hd5830 and hd5770...

 

[fatalcore]

actually i wanted to be on the safe side than being sad.....thats why i will go for 850(No compromise with power supply unit.)
and suggestions about lcd

 

[coderunknown]

^^ are you going for 2 X HD5870 in Xfire? if no. stick to TX650 & save a couple thousand bucks. even TX750 will be overkill.

 

[fatalcore]

YES 2 X HD5870 in Xfire.....I will get 1 card with the rig ...and the second jan 2010....will that create any problem?Also plz suggest a compatible cabinet.Please advice.

cabinet, i'll suggest get cheapest one: NZXT Gamma. you'll require cabinet with sideways HDD mounting. or can go for the little costly M59. these are starting points. more you spend, better you'll get cabinet.

The point is is this available in kolkata? if yes then where?
If i dont get it,whats the alternate choice?
Also suggest a flat cabinet which i can mount side wise -horizontally.
Will these cabinet support the long GPU?
will there be enough space for airflow?

well i not know about availability. than you got a 2nd option: CM 690.

flat cabinet? with flat cabinet, graphics card must be low profile. i.e. HD5550 or lower. or GT220 or lower. CM 100 or something.
