New Pc Configuration

[coderunknown]

Sorry bro .. i din c your post .. when i saw this post i was already back from SP road ..

But i had asked him about Biostar TA785G3 price coincidently ( not sure if it was G3 HD) and he quoted 4.3k for that

Finally i Bought My pc but overall my experience was bad with this purchase ..

I din get NZXT Gamma .. Dell st2210 stock was over , so couldnt buy monitor, din buy speakers now.. components were overpriced at every shop ..

PS: I suggest ppl from banglore PLEASE dont buy anything from GADGET IT PARK shop in sp Road.

When i went to take quotation he quoted very less .. after i searched other shops i found his quotation is less compared to others when i went to purchase there finally .. he increased all price .. he quoted CM ELITE 310 for 2800

and increased ram price , mobo price etc

And when i argued .. he told openly that it happens in sp road , they will quote less 4 one item and increase price in another item. ( Which i agree) but his attitude was bad ..

Asus M4A785TD-V EVO 6.35k
AMD X4 630 4.8k
CM ELITE 310 1.8k
FSP SAGA II 400W 2.4k ( I think overpriced .. all PSU were overpriced )
HP DVD Writer 1.2k
Transcend 2gb DDR3 2.7k
WD 500GB 2.3k
APC 550v 1.75k

INCLUDING VAT 24.2k Damage without monitor and Speakers

I think Ram price has increased .. You can see why he has put FSP SAGA 2.4k , the other parts like MOBO and proc and elite 310 are less compared to other shops.. but he has covered everything with PSU .. So there was no point in going to other shop ..

I have installed 32 bit WIN7 , today i will install fedora12
I will not OC now .. But i have one doubt .. how much HD4200 will share from RAM .. i read it is 512 .. but in bios i can see more than 512 could be set.
And right now it is set to auto ..

Thanks for all your comment ..

FSP SAGA is cool n silent

i must admit, the price of mobo, proccy & UPS & even hdd is less. ram price is ok. its 2.7k everywhere. only in few places its avl for 2.6k.

& he must be fool quoting 2.8k for CM Elite 310.

well HD4200 got 128Mb DDR3 onboard. & from bios as well as from Asus Utility you may share a max of 512Mb. so total ram is 128+512Mb. well i'll suggest allot 512Mb from system memory as you using 32bit so max of 3.5Gb used. 512Mb is still sitting idle.

yup. FSP Saga II is extremely silent. anyway congrats on your purchase. hope it gives good service

 

[Cool G5]

RAM price is ok. In mumbai, Corsair 2 GB DDR3 costs Rs.2.7K.
HDD is also ok. Costs almost similar here.

Congrats on your purchase. Now post some pics of the rig especially the innards.

well ATI's biggest problem is it doesn't makes drivers for Linux. drivers only for Red hat, Suse & maybe Ubuntu available. Fedora has been left in dark.


what? APC have only 2 pins? considering the cost i not very much surprised.

Currently there is no Ati driver for Fedora 12. If you want 3D acceleration & compiz fusion, I recommend reverting back to Fedora 11 & then installing the driver as per this post.

Hmm i am not going to play any games in linux ..I use only for Development and movies and music .. But i wanted high resolution ( in vesa it was 800x600 max) and those nice desktop effects

I have installed mesa experimental dri driver and everything is working fine now

I found in some site

Finally!Asus M4A785TD-V Evo has arrived!

Unlock your Phenom II X2 and X3 with these board. This board can also unlock L3 Cache on your Athlon II

Is it possible ?

 

[Cool G5]

It should theoretically, since Athlon is actually Phenom with L3 cache disabled.

Is Athlon actually Phenom without L3 cache or disabled L3 cache ? I have seen some video who has unlocked L3 cache of A2 x4 620 ..

And i have another problem .. well i will post that in software question section .. Mic is not working in Windows 7 but playback is fine .. I have not installed XP so cant test in that ..

C you guys on Tuesday

Apparently the nwer lot of Athlon II will have the L3 cache physically removed from the die so there will be no L3 cache to unlock. Better not try to risk it. Also there had only been a few cases of unlocking with Athlon II X4 so unlockability itself isn't sure. You're better off with a Phenom II to unlock

well i think its old post. yes L3 cache can be unlocked in few athlon samples. but nowadays i don't think AMD shipping any deneb with disabled cache to be unlocked.

rite. chance of unlocking Athlon X4's L3 cache is very very slim. though lately i heard news that X3's L3 cache can be unlocked. & theres no risk. no risk at all. its just if L3 cache is there it'll unlock. its not there, it won't unlock. if its there but its faulty, PC won't boot. turn ACC off. PC wil boot as regular.

Athlon II X2 250 3.0GHz @ ---> i not think its avl yet & its cost lot. better X3.
Biostar TA785G3 / Biostar TA785G3 HD @ ?? ( Difrence ??) ---> well G3+: 5.1ch audio, 125W max. g3 HD: 7.1ch & 140W. 128Mb DDR3 sideport.
Transcend 2GB DDR3 1333MHz C9 @ 2.7k
WD 500GB @ 2.3k
Samsung p1950W @ ?? ---> no idea at all.
apc 550v or any better one around 1k ? --->550va enough. & its value. others are not reliable.
altec lansing 2.1 bxr series ---> creative SBS series?

well yes, 1 fan at side for the IGP. & 1 at front for HDD. 1 at back for..... just like this . actually you may use the included fan as front fan cause PSU's fan will anyway suck air out. so 2 fan will push more air in & PSU will get more cool air to keep itself cool. for PSU, he may use a 450W cheap PSU also. the power demand too less. so will handle without any problem at all.

I will do it after changing to NZXT Gamma

Well i meant to say one LED fan at rear and rest NON LED fans

yah, for now it won't pose any problem.

Well i meant to say one LED fan at rear and rest NON LED fans

Sunbeam & cooler master are 2 companies whose fans freely available almost everywhere. sunbeam 120mm fans cost 350. CM costs 450. also Xigmatek makes good fans, but mainly orange. cost 450. but super silent. also may check for NZXT 7 blade fan.
