I don't think I'm gonna use ANYTHING for 7 years :facepalm: Also even Seasonic has 5 years I think...(but it says only in USA(!?).. confused)
The Seasonic i mentioned has very good reviews.

PSU & cabinets are generally one time upgrade which last for 3-4 builds.
About using for 7 years, why not? PSUs are almost constant in the market in last 5 years and should remain the same for next 5-6 years or more.

coz i dont even know where im gonna be in the nxt 5 years. if im gona be alive or not. if this world is gonna exist or not. anyway jokes apart im going for the seasonic 620w itself since I'll cut down somewhere cant take everything expensive :p

So , What is the final config you have decided.
Here you go
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
Graphics Card|Sapphire HD 7850 Dual Fan OC Edition
PSU|Seasonic S12II-620 620W
HDD|Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM SATAIII 6.0GB/s (ST1000DM003)

Now the only prob is wer to buy them. I'm from Pune. Know any shops? Online stores are quoting high prices.. + Shipping + can't physically go and replace if any fault. SO 1st pref is local...
any suggestions?

I don't know ONE shop which sells you PC hardware parts.. as in seperate seperate. Pune sux :|

of all the places u have to cut down on the most important part
:facepalm:

He was suggesting 750/850w PSU. WHICH IS NOT REQUIRED BY MY CONFIG.
By cutting down i just meant going for non modular as opposed to semi/fully modular. Learn to read before facepalm-ing genius.
Quality-wise I'm not cutting down.

I'll recommend corsair TX650V2(6k) over the seasonic one which you're gonna buy.

Any specific reasons?
Here are my reasons for going with the seasonic
1) TX series of Corsair is made by Seasonic itself
2) Has serious noise issues(posted by users in various forums)
3) Even under idle operation has more noise than seasonic
4) Seasonic has better reviews
5) Cheaper

actually i facepalmed AFTER reading..o lord sharang...
1.The warranty is 3 yrs...as opposed to corsairs 7 yrs...
2.the efficiency is less.[u said something about quality ?]
3.Non modular(IMHO anything above 600W u should try to get at-least a semi modular).i livd with a 650W and i know how it feels to manage the cables.

I can't/won't explain anymore man.. 620 is enough for me and noise is a big factor for me. In simple words. Everyone has different priorities..
Also cable management is a one-time job :)

Aslo as a backup i have selected a fully modular PSU.
Seasonic X-660W @ 7,750 INR

About 'backup' selection of PSU, why don't you select Corsair HX750 ( almostsame price as of X660W) and have 7 years of replacement warranty). I don't understand that.. :unsure:

Coz almost all corsair reviews i found have loud noise by default or loud noise problem. I Really don't want noise... seasonic x is fanless mode on 20% load and very low sound on 50% load...

Also i dont understand why u so against seasonic :(

err....
Corsair HX750W Power Supply Review | Hardware Secrets

most of the noise issue threads i saw are found to be user error...mistaking something else with PSU...
*forum.corsair.com/v2/showthread.php?t=105357
check last post...the user cannot pinpoint so blames it on the PSu...

Cause, Corsair provides best RMA service in India, hassle free. Many people have experience with them. Whereas seasonic? I thin very few people know about their quality of RMA service.

About noise, even in full load condition, fan makes very little noise.

Hi there,

Procuring that CPU cooler would be difficult in Pune. You will get CM CPU coolers easily . You will have to order that cooler online. Regarding the CPU, it will be available at any h/w shop, like Sujata Comp , Nal Stop, or Data Care , Singhagad Rd/ or Deccan. Motherboard, if not available, the above guys can order it for you.

For the Grafix card, I bought my MSI GTX460 cyclone from S-Tech computers, near swargate, almost 2 years ago, when it was not available in Pune anywhere, he ordered it from somewhere and gave to me in 4 days time.

I got my Corsair VX55O from Sujata computers, Nal stop, Karve road. Again, i had to wait for good 5-6 days, as he had to order it. Beware, Sujata comp. charges high rates. example: When VX550 was avaiable for 4.7K at PrimeABGB, sujata sold me VX550 for 5.25K. (Even i was reluctant to buy this online :-D , hence bought it locally)


Hope this helps. :wink:
