Need a new Semi-Gaming PC under 80k

^^ The difference between the spaces have no meaning. They uses same XMP profile manager.

About GSkill RipjawsX F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL, you will get it @3.1K
You may get the same kit, or buy 2x GSkill RipjawsX F3-12800CL9S-4GBXL modules, which are same as the kit specified by you.

About the hyperX model, it is not available in India.

 

[sharang.d]

Is there any other better 8GB RAM kit under 5k I can get? Or are the ripjawsX enough?

 

[d6bmg]

You won't get anything better in 5K.

You won't get anything better in 5K.

Are you sure ?
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) @ 3.3k

as requested by PM :

Just confused....
Processor supports 1066MHz
Mobo supports 2000+mhz
RAM supports ?? (No idea)
so wat does it mean?

the core i7 2600K cpu officially supports ram speed upto 1333Mhz but with a good mobo you can run mem speed higher than 1333Mhz - the cpu though not officially mentioned supports more than 1333 Mhz ram speed very well .

so ram speed of 2600(O.C.)/2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333 MHz does not matter much to the cpu but it all depends upon what ram and mobo you will choose to use -

now if you use a 1600Mhz ram kit the mobo will auto detect the speed ( in most cases ) but for speed higher than 1600 Mhz you may need to manually select a suitable xmp profile ( or set the ram speed manually ) which is a very easy task.

Now if you buy a 1600Mhz ram kit you can try running it at more than 1600Mhz speed - say 1800Mhz which is the real ram OC as you are running your mem modules at much higher speed than what was officially mentioned .

I saw that one.. but Noctua NH-D14 doesn't allow any Corsair Vengeance RAM
Supports Corsair Vengeance Low profile ones though.. know any?

They shud write that

so ram speed of 2600(O.C.)/2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333 MHz does not matter much to the cpu but it all depends upon what ram and mobo you will choose to use -

Got it !

Yeah I got it .. read too much about it
Thanks a lot for clarifying though

Also, do you know any Corsair Vengeance Low Profile RAMs better than G.Skill RipjawsX? (Under 5k)

 

[topgear]

stick with G.Skill Ripjaws.

 

[sharang.d]

So far this is IT :

Processor|Intel i7-2600k
Motherboard|GIGABYTE UDZ77X-UD5H-WB WIFI
RAM|G.Skill RipjawsX 1600Mhz 4G x 2
CPU Cooler|Noctua NH-D14

stick with G.Skill Ripjaws.

Okay.

Now I want Corsair Carbide 500R but I want to make sure if Noctua NH-D14 fits well in it considering it has a big 200mm side fan and all. I myself am quite sure that it will fit but i want to know. Does anyone here know If Noctua NH-D14 and Corsair Carbide 500R are compatible? I would appreciate it if you could tell me or point me to some links.. thanks!

 

[the_conqueror]

Corsair carbide 400R and 500R are spacious cabinets. They can fit most of the high coolers.

 

[dfcols71]

it a good choice but you will have to buy 3 extra fans and possibly a fan controller, if your mother board doesn't have 3 chasis/pwr fan socket fittinig noctua dh 14 should not be a problem when guys have fit the cooler in nzxt source elite 210,only fit the backplate and standoff off of cooler,fit mobo into cabinet,fit ram last attach the cooler

1) 500R already has 2x Front 120mm, 1x Side 200mm, 1x Rear 120mm.
2) Still you are right i will buy more fans.. Better than upgrading later.
3) I have no idea what a fan controller is and why I would need one [HINT: Tell me please ]
4) My motherboard has 1 CPU Fan header + 4 System Fan headers. What do those mean? I know the CPU cooler will be plugged in to the CPU fan header. What about the system fan headers?
5) The cabinet has 4 fans and only 1-2 Fan header/s according to the unboxing video.
6) Anyway feature-wise this is the best Cabinet so I think I'll compromise with what needs to be done to get more fans as opposed to going for another cabinet

I think I'll work with my new cabinet, get to understand what needs to be done and then later buy fans since they're not very big components and don't need to be pooled up with other items for discount

Corsair carbide 400R and 500R are spacious cabinets. They can fit most of the high coolers.

Thanks for the confidence

 

[dfcols71]

my mistake since i was reading the review from this site,iwas under the impression it had only one fan

Random question .. Isn't GS Sniper series better then ripjawsx?

 

[Sainatarajan]

RipJAWS is better than Sniper

 

[sharang.d]

Random question .. Isn't GS Sniper series better then ripjawsx?

RipJAWS is better than Sniper

Sorry to disappoint you both but from what I read the only difference between RipjawsX and Ripjaws Sniper is that they have different heat spreader designs. Specification-wsie both are same. Just that the Sniper series is newer than the X series.

Okay so here I am

Component | Make
Processor|Intel i7-2600k
Motherboard|GIGABYTE UDZ77X-UD5H-WB WIFI
RAM|G.Skill RipjawsX 1600Mhz 4G x 2
CPU Cooler|Noctua NH-D14
Cabinet|Corsair Carbide 500R

Only PSU left now. Any suggestions? I want one which will allow me to add a high powered single(By single i mean the ones who do not need the SLI bridges) GPU later and most preferably i want a modular pSU.

I will be adding 2-3 more fans as well to the Cabinet if that somehow contributes to the power requirement :S

I need good overclocking potential.

 

[dfcols71]

850 watts corsair or seasonic if you are planning sli ax 850 corsair 7 years warranty unbeatable

if no sli 650.750 hx corsair will do or seasonic x760 but 5 years warranty only

Okays... will go through it.

Also I'm thinking of buying a new graphics card now itself.
Budget Strictly 15k.

Best Graphics Card for money thread suggests:

HIS HD 7850 (available at 15.3K) and Sapphire HD 7850 Dual Fan Edition (15.6K)

Is there any better?

 

[sumonpathak]

^^get the HD 7850....clocks nice

 

[the_conqueror]

My vote goes to Sapphire. It runs quiet and cool. Though the voltage is locked, it can be OCed by some extent. Gigabyte one has noise issues.
