bwhahahah! The story of low EMI, sounds familiar??

Still I think you guys need to check out stuff like VRMs and its rated amps. MOSFETS are way too low for something like this processor.

can you plz give me price details of below !!!

intel core i5 2500k
Asus p8H67 M Le
seasonic 620w
4gb ram
NZXT Gamma / CM Elite 311

plz reply !!!!

Your rig isn't balanced. Quote your max budget, create a new thread the the PC configuration thread with the template. Then we can suggest you best VFM rig at your budget.

Why a H67 borad with a K series processor? Get Z68 or P67 chipset based board to utilize overclocking of a K series processor.

hi,

h67 board i choose because i cant buying GPU for 4-5 months !
and 2500k has inbuilt Intel HD 3000 graphics !!!

no ther board is utilises onboard graphics like H67

and also ( cant OC proccy but required HD 3000 ) !!!!!

thats why 2500k with H67 !!!!

plz give me price details !!!

should i go for AMD FX 8120 / 8150 if price is in the range of 2500k proc ??

mostly i am in the field of developing applications, web design and also playing good 3d games .

among described above Processor list which option is good for future proof (5-6 years)

plz plz !!!!
 

ksharp

Right off the assembly line
giving a 4.5k cabinet+smps for that 25k build is not just... it dosent even have any graphic card.. who needs a NZXT gamma for that build?

@swapnilbunty123: if this is your plan, there is not much of difference between HD2000 & HD3000 provided by Intel along with their processor.

^^ d6bmg: when you will go to vedant, can u confirm me some asus/msi z68 mobo price between 9k-12k & has at least 2way sli/cfx option & also corsair carbide 400r....though I know the prices but still wanna recheck, so if you kindly do this favor for me.Plz post those prices after being confirmed. (my friend wanna build a rig ;) )

BTW attention everyone, here it comes :2subs:

@nilgtx260: Corsair carbide 400R @4.75K+VAT
sorry but forgot to ask the price of z68 mobo under 12K. I guess Z68-V would be around 12K mark.. :unsure:

FX8120 is a good alternative for i5 2500K if you run highly multi-threaded apps like Photoshop, 3Ds Max etc and do a lots of Video editing. Also if you use Virtualization then FX8120 is a good option.
Just inquired in Vedant, FX8120 is 11K and FX8150 is 14.5K (negotiable)

As Microsoft has already released an test version optimization pack for BD CPUs which has displayed some performance increase in games as well as in synthetic benchmarks, we an assume that final verson of this hot-fix will appear soner. So with the decreased price, newer and wider range of instruction set supports, better Virtualization supports than equallly priced 2500K, better motherboards with a lot of feature set in cheaper price compared to the Intel counterparts, I don't think Bulldozer based onfigurations can be ignored any more.

So here are some of Bulldozer based configs which I think should be enlisted in the Pre-config system list:-

AMD FX8120 (3.1 GHz, 8 Core, 8 MB L2, 8 MB L3) @ 12K
MSI 990FXA-GD65 @ 9.9K (mdcomputers.in)
Gskill RipjawX 4GB X 2 1600 MHz @ 3.2K
Seagate 500GB 7200.12 SATA @ 4.2K
Sapphire HD 6950 1GB Dual Fan @ 14K
Cooler Master 690 II @ 4.7K
Seasonic SS 850W-AT 80+ Bronze @ 6.2K
BenQ G2220HD @ 7K
ASUS 24X Sata Black DVD @ 1K
Logitech G-400 @ 1.2K
Logitech Keyboard K200 @ 0.4K
Razer Goliathus Fragged Omega S @ 0.4K
APC 1.1KVA Black UPS @ 4.3K
Edifier C2 @ 3.2K

Total: 84.3K.
Guys, please share your opinions

Legend Never Ends
how about using a Asus M5A88M?
Some things as said by Cilus
i. M5A motherboards have full support
for AM3+ processors from ground
level, not by BIOS update as in the case of Gigabyte mobo.
ii. It has SATA III 6 Gbps ports, missing
in 880G-USB 3
iii. M5A88M has slightly better build
quality over and better VRM over
880G-USB3 and it supports CPU TDP up to 140W.
iv. SB850 Southbridge compared to
SB710 in Gigabyte
and maybe use a 2 gb 6950 from the saved money?

Does the 8120 and 8150 proccy's have the insane power consumption levels too? Or was it just come specific proccy model?

I am the night...I am...
But i would say overclocking the 2500k will yield a better performance increment than 8120. Sure amd reaches higher speeds but performance increment isn't proportional to clock speed.

I would say 2500k is good owing to better ipc and will also provide on par performance or slightly lower in heavily threaded scenario consuming much less power. Overclock 2500k beyond 4.5ghz and see it annihilate the competition. Bulldozer isn't a good option at all considering its current dismal performance.

Besides its below 2500k in 3ds max and slightly slower in video editing.

Check here.

I would say 2500k instead of 8120 anyday.

Vicky, I'm talking about a server environment where most of the apps are highly mutithreaded and Bulldozer design has already proven to be benefited from it. Also Virtualization support is more better in AMD FX series and with the Hotfix on its way, it looks promising now due to the overall less price and good VFM solution. Try to understand my point...I'm not comparing the gaming performance of it with 2500K.
