need rig purely for 3d modelling/ rendering and occasional gaming (65k max budget)

[Cilus]

^^ Very nicely put vkl, keep up the good job

 

[prashanthada]

thanks vkl
so here goes my assembly as am thinking to buy now. correct me if somethings wrong.

1. processor i7 3770 or 15 3550 according to budget will chosse one.

2. motherboard GA-H77-D3H-MVP GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 1155 - GA-H77-D3H-MVP (rev. 1.0)

3. ram
now if i choose corsair then it shows on its website that spd speed is 1333mhz and tested is 1600mhz Vengeance®
pelase enlighten me if that makes a diff??
if i go with Gskill ripjawsX on its website my motherboard i.e any h series is not in the recommeded mobo list G.SKILL- World leading DDR3 computer memory and SSD manufacturer -Products
please help me choose and lemme know is h series is not recommended and z wil help or no??

4. graphics card got the diffrce for a proffesional card am already using a firepro 4800 in my office so know the performance and sure 4900 is better. now tellme if i go for a gaming card for say Hd7850. on it website its written that "500 Watt Power Supply is required" *www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=1&gid=3&sgid=1160&pid=1472&psn&lid=1#
then temme cx500v2 or cx430v2 is fine??

5. power supply : asked above

6. in delhi in summers temp are high so will go with hyper evo

7. case : CM elite 311plus looks fine as suggested by you. or may be any other option in similar price range if i can look. or ill go for the same

8. monitor: will try to go for ultra sharp. but if budget wont allow then will lg full hd 23" is a fine option or no ?? LG E2381VR LED Monitor -23"(58.42 cms)Full HD LED Monitor - LG Electronics IN

9. for hard disk am going with wd black 64 mb cache

10. mouse keyboard rom no problem at all.

vkl one favor if this time u can give the list with price ill highly appreciate that. thanks

 

[Cilus]

For Processor, I think you should chose between i7 2600 and 3770. i7 2600 is also hyper threaded and can process 8 threads simultaneously. It also has advantage over 3550 in Multi-threaded applications. i5 3550 is a choice for Gamers, not for 3D Modelling.

 

[vkl]

If you can get i7 3770/2600 then it is ok otherwise i5 3550 is fine for its price.

2.As far as GA-H77-D3H-MVP is concerned,I don't know where/whether it is available in India.

3.Download this:GA-H77-D3H-MVP-Memory support list.It contains the list of some of tested and supported memory modules in this motherboard.This motherboard supports XMP.In the pdf it is clearly written:
"Memory modules listed below are for reference only. Due to massive memory models on the market, we can only verify some of them".

You can find some of the corsair vengeance and Gskill ripjawsx memory modules tested at 1600MHz in the list.
So ideally most of the well know 1600MHz RAM modules should work well with it.With this motherboard for XMP you need intel 3rd gen processor.With intel 3rd gen processors a 1600MHz RAM on this board would run at 1600MHz and with 2nd gen processors like i7 2600 a 1600MHz RAM would be down-clocked to 1333MHz.
For corsair vengeance memory no need to worry about spd speed.At auto/default settings in BIOS the corsair vengeance memory would run at 1333MHz(spc speed),but once you enable XMP in BIOS then it will run at 1600MHz.

4.cx430v2 is more than fine for the config.When a graphics card manufacturer writes PSU specification for a card he has to take certain things into account like high power consuming processors at heavy load like i7 3960x and fx8150 and overclocking.So they have to rate it accordingly.That config would hardly consume 250watts at full load.

7.For cabby cm elite 311plus is fine.AFAIK Nzxt cabinets are not available in delhi or else nzxt source 210 elite is a good option too.

Cm hyper 212 evo would cost around 2k.
I have had given the components with their respective prices.You can check that.

 

[prashanthada]

ok have my final build and going to the market in the evening

1. processor i5 3550

2. mobo should go for h series please leeme know gigabyte or asus or asrock. for which one i go????

3. ram going with gskill 1600 mhz - 8gb (4x2)

4. graphics card - going for hd7850 2GB as my modelling level is moderate and i render on cloud setup so exactly dont want to suffer my gaming time. if am buying a pc for 60 70 k n wont be able to play latest games then it will be awwfull. so lemme know if there is a card around 10 k which is also i can consider

5. power supply - cx430v2

6. Cm hyper 212 evo

7. case - cm elite 311plus

8. monitor - lg full hd 23"

9. harddisk - wd cavier black 7200 rpm 64mb cache


please lemme know the ups to buy
also good speakers for around 2k

slowly my build is turning towards gaming but want to make a all rounder with moderate modelling and moderate amins

 

[vkl]

All of the above discussed boards are fine.Go with anyone of them.

Get atleast an hd7850 2GB.Don't go lower than that.
For UPS look for APC 600VA@2.2k or APC 650VA@2.9k.
For speakers wait for other members to respond.

5. Lower the Latency, better the performance. Get the gskill ripjawx 1600mhz 8gb x 1. Upgrade to more memory in future if needed.

7. As already said before, the CX430V2 is more than enough for your config. No need to worry. Do not listen to what the dumb guy says.

8. 1.7k for 310 is fine. Get the CM elite 311. For cpu cooling, the evo will perform much better. More fans means more noise. Again, /ignore the shopkeeper.

11. Go for the APC 700VA (BE 700Y-IN) for 3.6k. That would be more than enough for 10mins.

12. Go for Razer Cyclosa @ 2.7k
For a desktop user, a wired keyboard/mouse is far better than a wireless one.

13. Get Samsung 22x SATA @ 1k

 

[prashanthada]

thanks neo

you skipped 10

1. now for cx430v2 fine ill go with this.......just curious by any chance for safe side i should go for cx500v2?

2. my socket is lga 1155 for i5 3550..............and on cm website evo is for some other socet??? so...........anything for same socket.......?? or have i just asked a noob question PPP

3. how much apc 600va will last???

4. do i need to add fans in my case other then the evo or same for the socket????????
3. am generally not comfortable with a wired mouse while working on my desktop. so for information asking that will a wireless mouse lag while gaming????

 

[vkl]

Gigabyte GA-H77M-D3H is fine.

For same frequency,lower latency is better.
The model name for single 8GB stick and 4GB sticks from G.skill has been posted earlier.
G.Skill RipjawsX (1x8GB)(F3-12800CL10S-8GBXL).... Corsair Vengeance (1 x 8 GB)(CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10).
Little bit of googling would have helped you.

CX430v2 is more than enough.No need to listen to the shopkeeper.Avoid cooler master thunder PSU.

CM eilte 311plus was suggested because it has front usb3.0.
For 24" fhd monitor look for BENQ GW2450 LED Monitor.

APC 600VA which costs around 2.2k can take a maximum load upto 360Watts.Your rig would consume around 250Watts at full load.
If the efficiency of PSU is taken as 80%,maximum power required from UPS by the PSU would be=(250/0.8)=312.5W which is less than 360W.
So no problem with that UPS.How much backup it would provide depends upon the battery inside the UPS not the VA rating of the UPS.
Again the backup time provided would depend upon the load i.e while gaming the backup would be less while in normal usage the backup would be more.
You can also look for APV 650VA or APC 700VA.
Microtek 1kVA is fine but APC has better surge protectors.APC 1kVA would be around 5.2k.

HP DVD ROM and Asus DRW-24B5ST are fine.Pick the latter preferably.

 

[prashanthada]

for speaker i am thinking of edifier 2.1 around 2k...............can any one suggest the best edifier speakers in this range or may be soem other brand??

also is thier a cheaper option the evo 212 below 2k from cm????

thanks vkl
goggled a lot and then got confused between lot many model....thanks for the help now am sure with power and ups according to ur information

but hte ram that ur suggesting works at 10-10-10-30
in same dual channel rams are available at 9-9-9-27
so according to the information alter would be faster so i should go with the *www.corsair.com/en/memory-by-product-family/vengeance/vengeance-8gb-ddr3-memory-kit-cmz8gx3m1a1600c9.html
CMZ8GX3M1A1600C9 then c10 right????

 

[vkl]

If you can find the one with CAS9 then go for that.The one with CAS9 is available at flipkart for 3.5k

 

[prashanthada]

thanks vkl
got it abt ram will tru cas 8 aslso as the guy at shop was telling its available in gskill. power and case are also ok now.
lemme know abt edifier, wireless mouse doubt abt lag and any cheap n gud option than evo???????????

 

[The Incinerator]

Since your mode of work will stress your components (though not over volting) an airy cabinet like the NZXT Beta Evo (Rs 2600) or Nzxt Gamma (Rs 2600)will go a long way keeping the components cool and work optimally.

For speakers go with an Altec Lansing VS2621 | Speaker | Flipkart.com or Logitech Z313 2.1 Multimedia Speakers | Speaker | Flipkart.com

I would'nt suggest an Edifier at that price point.

 

[Myth]

any cheap n gud option than evo???????????

There are cheaper options (CM TX3) but they are not exactly worth the upgrade from stock coolers.
If you are short of cash now, manage with a stock cooler for some time and purchase it later.

 

[Cilus]

^^ Not exactly true. The Intel stock coolers are horrible in quality and even a Hyper TX3 is good as OP is not going to overclock. Get the Hyper TX3 Evo, available at 1.4K which is good enough to handle the CPU at stock speed.

 

[Myth]

Hyper TX3 is defintely better than the stock but 212 Evo (@2.2k) is a better upgrade for its price.
Just my personal opinion.

 

[prashanthada]

thanks myth n cilus
am not oc so am going with Hyper TX3 fine with everyone??????

 

[vkl]

It is fine,you can go ahead.

 

[Cilus]

^^ Get the Hyper TX3 Evo model, not the standard one. The price is only 100 bucks higher.
