^^ its ok with 6850 CF, but we can suggest premium Headphones instead of 2.1 Speakers.

I'm using siberia and its really good, for 3k I couldn't have bought anything better, its built quality is the best I've ever seen. So is the sound quality, bass freaks will just love it.

Jas bhai, the mobo only has support for 1333 Mhz RAM, so will the Gskill RAMs recommended above run at 1333 Mhz instead of 1600 Mhz ?

Piyush · Jun 24, 2011

^^such RAMS down clock themselves

NOT RECOMMENDED. Stick to rams with proper speed.

Intel DH67VR-B3 @ 4.5k and Sapphire HD6870 @ 11k - price reduction ;-)

Seagate 500GB 7200.12 @ 1.9k - price hiked !

Samsung LED LS23A300 @ 11k - can this be added on some config ?

Intel Core i5 2500k @ 10.5k - not a penny more than that.

Cilus · Jun 25, 2011

Thanks Topgear for the price update. However, I was thinking to provide at least 23"-24" display size for the 100K and later configs and if possible then for the 85K config also. Guys, please share your opinion...if you wanna spend 100K or above what will be your preference for Display size? In the 100K config, if we suggest MSI HD 6950 Twin Frozer III @ 15.9K instead of HD 6870 CF, we will save almost 6K. The reason is that HD 6950 offers plenty of performance in full HD resolution and future upgrade option is also there. Our 85K config is already having a HD 6870 CF. So it is good to move to a more powerful single GPU. The rest of the money can be used to incorporate a Asus 23" LED ML238H BK/2MS/AP @ 11.34K or Samsung P2350 23" LCD @ 10.5K including vat from lynx-india. This ASUS monitor is having positive reviews and offers superb performance for its value. It is even cheaper than the BenQ.
The Samsung 23" one is also very good and here is the review for it.
V2420HD. What say guys?

the rig you quoted has 1333mhz ram buddy :smile:

if you are confused with naming scheme (10666 etc etc) see this -

This naming system DDRx-yyyy (where x is the technology generation and yyyy is the DDR clock rate), in theory, is used only for the memory chips. The memory modules – the little printed circuit boards to where the memory chips are soldered – use a different naming system: PCx-zzzz, where x is the technology generation and zzzz is the maximum theoretical transfer rate (a.k.a. maximum bandwidth). This number tells us how many bytes can be transferred per second between the memory controller and the memory module, assuming that data will be transferred on every single clock pulse. This math is easily done by multiplying the DDR clock in MHz by eight. This will give us the maximum theoretical transfer rate in MB/s (megabytes per second). For example, DDR2-800 memories have a maximum theoretical transfer rate of 6,400 MB/s (800 x 8), and memory modules using this kind of memory are called PC2-6400. In some cases, the number is rounded off. For example, DDR3-1333 memories have a maximum theoretical transfer rate of 10,666 MB/s. Memory modules using this kind of memory are called PC3-10666 or PC3-10600, depending on the manufacturer.

where to make changes to accommodate 23"-24" screens?

vickybat · Jun 25, 2011

Okay now i have some important updates:

Glacialtech GP AX 950 AA ( 80+ silver) is available @ 6k at smcinternational.in.

At this price, its simply unbeatable and will only be challenged by corsair AX series psu's. It can easily handle a 580 sli without breaking a sweat. So i think its time to recommend it in this guide instead of corsair tx 650 , 750 & 850-v2. Even the modular hx 850 doesn't make sense anymore since glacialtech is also modular. Check its review here.

@ jaskanwar

Remove the cf setups from 85k and 100k configs and go for a single 6950 twin frozr III p.e alongwith glacialtech 950w psu. You will save enough to add a 23-24 inch monitor. Besides , the buyer can add another 6950 down the line thus keeping the upgrade path intact. A 6950 2gb especially the twin frozr III model performs equal with a gtx 570 and will even perform better at higher resolutions. Its more than enough for fullhd and a user will never ask for more immediately.

Cilus · Jun 25, 2011

Jas, the 85K config is fine. I was talking about 100K one. We can go for a HD 6950 Twin Frozer III, keeping the option for future Crossfire and with the saved money, we can go for the Asus 23" LED ML238H BK/2MS/AP @ 11.34K

vickybat · Jun 25, 2011

^^ Hey buddy, i think we should also add the 23 inch monitor in the 85k rig as well. That sort of rig deserves a 23 incher don't you think?

Piyush · Jun 25, 2011
