mobo+cpu+ram under 12k

[arvnd56a]

is this config good??

MOBO= gigabyte b75-d3h @4.8k
CPU =i3 540 @ 5.4k
RAM =4gb (kingston or transcend) @ 1.4k

i have msi 6670 gpu...will be playing games at 1280x720

will i be able to play all latest games like BF3 ,max payne 3 without any lag at this resolution and with above config??

Try this Intel core i3 2100 - 6.5k
Gigabyte H61M-d2h - 3.3k
4GB ddr3 1333mhz - 1.3k
total 11.2k
save for money for a good gpu.

I want a USB 3 support from mobo as I have 2 usb3 external hhd..b75 Has replaced h61 and seems to be future proof for atleast 5yrs..
Is the difference bt 540 &2100 huge during gaming or 540 serves just fine @ 1280x720 resolution gaming??

Core i3 2100+ msi h67 + corsair 4 gb = 12k

 

[arvnd56a]

Core i3 2100+ msi h67 + corsair 4 gb = 12k

Thanks guys ..I think I will settle for

i3 2100 + gigabyte b75 d3h+4gb ram=12.6k{little over my budget but I can afford that }

How is the Phenom II X4 960BE/980BE against Core I3 -2100 ? Any idea ?
I am asking because I will also go for same config,in next 2 Months.

Maybe otherwise I will buy a used Core I5-2500k, since I too have to Play BF3 , and MW3 like games.

^^ for gaming core i3 2100 is still better but for a overall all rounder cpu I like the 960T over any other cpus but needs may vary from person to person and one can't ignore the ultra low power consumption of core i3 2100

 

[arvnd56a]

Guys I m getting i3 2120 @6.8k locally ..its hard to find 2100 and two shops quoted me around 7.2k ...should I go with 2120??

 

[topgear]

get the i3 2120.

I prefer Phenom II X4 960Tover Core i3-2100 because it can be overclocked plus also has a chance to unlock to 6 cores.

If you can spend, then it's i5-2500K all the way.

Thanks guy ..this is what I got

Mobo= gigabyte b75 d3h @4.8k
CPU = i3 2120 3.3Ghz. @6.8k
RAM=. Corsair 4GB. @1.4k

And got 2.3k in exchange for my 5yrs. old config..so total cost=10.7k

i am currently using the folloing system since 2007 want to upgrade under 12k.
processor- amd athlon x2 64 4000+
mobo- jetway m26gt3svp
ram-1x 2gb kingston ddr2
zebronics vivah cabinet
250gb sata hd

i want to continue useing amd processor. so plz recomend me a amd processor+mobo+ram.

 

[topgear]

^^ better would be f you create a new thread or what Op has got if you still want a AMD based config consider getting these :

1. Phenom II X4 960T @ 7k
2. Asus M5A88-M @ 5.2k
3. 4GB Corsair Value Select 1333 Mhz DDr3 Ram @ 1.3k ( sell your old cpu+mobo+ram and fetch the extra money ).

please get your facts straight
i3 540 is a nephalem (lga 1156 ) cpu and is not compatible with lga 1155 socket mobos
