Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

gr8 guys...just saw Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H specs on their site..it's quite amazing...it has everything which i wanted sata 3 + usb 3.0 + hdmi...m wondering now that if i wouldn't have made this thread then i would have bought something stupic config...thanx for all ur guidance which has improved my knowledge as well...

Cache won't matter that much since you're not gonna game.

Ya m not MUCH addicted towards hi-end gamings but i love to play many...favourite games like nfs shift, fifa 11..n many latest action games... and cache plays important role in multitasking n not in just gaming..correct me if m wrong..

now, gigabyte 880GMA-UD2H might be difficult to find. availability is a huge problem with this board. infact, i'm sure that you won't even find it. TheITWares has it listed, but i've heard that they don't have it anymore.

if that is the case and u really need USB 3.0, sata3 6gbps and hdmi, u're only left with MSI 880GMA-E45 around the same price point.(

Now

athlon II x4 635 @4.5k
4 cores/4 threads
No onchip graphics

Intel i3 @4.9-5k
2 cores/4 threads
Onchip HD graphics...so no need to buy separate gpu (i guess)

actually speaking, it is the motherboard of AM3 processors which has on-board graphics. 880G chipset motherboards have hd 4250 which is faster than Intel IGP in first generation Core i3 processors.

Also the later has better graphics than Athlon II X3 440 with much better cache memory.

no it doesn't. hd 4200 over intel IGP anyday.

@saswat & @joker guys we are talking about athlon II x4 and not athlon II x3 processor...

m damm confused in amd vs intel factor only..i have never experienced amd..neither of my friends..all of my friends have used intel cpu only..even i have also been assembling pc based on intel only...is athlon quad core better than i3?? I have also heard that amd processors have less cache size..

L3 cache benefits only in cpu intensive tasks like winrar etc, and at high clock speeds.

no. amd 890gx (HD4290)onboard graphics is approx equal to HD2000 found on non k edition sandybridge processors but HD3000 on k editions is better.

we're talking about 1st gen core i3 intel IGP here. hd 4200 is clearly superior to that.

^oh yeah!
but for gaming none of them is good!

also..does corsair ram stick come with heatsink?? And can u please suggest cheaper cabinet w/o psu having good ventilation and space?? M going to buy fsp saga ii 350w only coz i have seen many threads regarding psu and got importance of having good separate psu..

 

[Piyush]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

as u said u do basic tasks and occasionally video editing so its better to get athlon x4

so

Athlon II X4 635 @4.4k
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H @4.2k
Corsair Value 2GB DDR3 1333MHz @1.1k
WDC Blue 500GB @1.7k
Cooler Master Elite 310 @1.5k
FSP saga II 500W @2.2k (in case of med performer gpu)
TOTAL @ 15.1k
its quite future proof
just add a stick of ram later along with a gfx card and u r done
and regarding usb3/sata3 ....u can add an addon card for that purpose later

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

below 310, bijli @1k is the best..i do own one..but its hard to find..its just 500 bucks..spare somehow..worths it!!

 

[MegaMind]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

Bijli has gr8 VFM...
5/5 for bijli, at 1K..

 

[bhushan2k]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

gr8..guys good news..taking 16k from dad and i have 2k..so budget is 18k now..so can think about lil bit more for gaming too??

Phenom II x4 955 BE 6k (read the cost somewhere..is it true??)
m4a88 td-m evo/usb3 6.6k (gr8 built and in features over others in that category)
Corsair ddr3 1333 MHz 1.1k (with heatsink??)
bijli cab 1k
fsp saga 350w 1.5k (will satisfy on integrated gfx for time probably 6month or a yr)
WD blue 250GB 1.5k (even 160GB will be enough for me as..please read last point..)

Total 17.7k

Also tell me about monitor..i have old samsung crt 14" wala monitor..will that monitor support to 4250 integrated graphics?? If it supports then i won't upgrade to hd lcd for atleast 1 or 1.5 year..otherwise there is no sense in buying this rig with unsupported monitor lol...

Also i have 2 40GB IDE hdds..any idea of having IDE PCI card market availability?? coz i will attach existing IDE dvd rw to one IDE slot..and don't wanna make any primary secondary master slave issue on this board..lol..

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

GA-880GMA-UD2H is not available..i guess..

 

[Piyush]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

MSI 880gma e45 @5.2k
usb3 and sata3

 

[saswat23]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

OP,
why should you spend 6.6k on a mobo, when a mobo at 5k can satisfy ur needs.
Go, with Piyush's config.

 

[bhushan2k]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

yup will take msi mobo only if it is available..

 

[skeletor]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

Strong suggestion from me to go with Asus M4A88TD-M EVO/USB3. Better quality than the MSI one.

And I'm repeating, please avoid suggesting Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H as it is NOT available anywhere.

 

[bhushan2k]

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

well..will decide about motherboard later..can u plz tell me about my monitor?? And how about IDE PCI card for old hdds?? Please read my previous posts..
