+ 4% VAT and the prices are fine, primeabgb are trusted online sellers but u might wanna check with them on phone first if u order, people of wb need to provide some kind of paper work for delivery(at least thats what i see some sellers on ebay mention)

oh wow...Xenforo!!!
They are usually dependable (well....most of them are mid-to-high end ones and few have hiccups like bios/driver issues, layout thing, etc. so it varies between models and what competitors have to offer) but its overshadowed by the fact rashi is screwing it up big time. There's not much choice. If something is good, its good. There's no workaround from Rashi, they are their "exclusive" distributor.

@clius: We need some tweaked drivers to run ATI/AMD cards with Nvidia cards (physx), could you please link us to the place showing us how to do it?
 

Cilus

laborare est orare
I think it is the opposite, running nVidia cards as PhysX card with ATI cards as main graphics card.
Here is the tomshardware link for the detail analysis.
You can download the hack to modify nvidia driver from here. It is also having a basic guide, FAQs etc
 

Cilus

laborare est orare
You need a mobo 2 or more with X16 slots, does not matter whether it is SLI or Crossfire. Because it is not a multi-gpu setting like CF or SLI where both the GPUs are getting used equally, i.e. work is divided equally among the two cards.
Here you are still using a single GPU (the non-nvidia one) for gaming and bypassing only the PhysX calculation from your CPU to your nVidia GPU. So only physX calculation is being performed by the nVidia GPU or the 2nd one.

So does not matter whether u r using CF mobo or SLI one.

Jas you should give the buyers an option for gtx 570 cause it beats 6970 in many benchmarks and has added features like cuda and physx. So it cannot be ignored in lieu for caymans. Its tesselation prowess is also superior to 6970 and future games will perform better.
 

Cilus

laborare est orare
Jas, I think Vicky is right here..GTX570 is a better deal than HD 6970 at this moment.
However here goes my 3 PhysX config. Will add some more later.

considering the HD 6850 as main card. nPrice can be reduced a little by going for Zebronics U1000VA @ 2.76K.

Price can be reduced by going for a Numeric 1000VA UPS @ 4.1k and NZXT M59 cabinet @ 3.8K.

The Asrock motherboard is suggested here due to its good feature set, high over clocking support for advanced users and 3 PCI Express X16 slots, which enables the user to do Crossfire @ X8 mode + adding 1 PhysX card at the X16 slot running at X4 mode.

Since you asked in that other thread........
1st Rig
Corsair GS600 80+ Certified @ 4.75K
New GS series isn't as good. VX550W.

3rd rig
CM Hyper N520 @ 2.5k
N520 is V.old, Switch it for 212+ which is easily better for a lower price esp when you add a fan in Push-Pull.

4th rig
Hyper 212+ for 520
Guardian isn't good in build quality, CM690 Basic.

Another option could be 1075T and DH14. OC cieling is nearly same for 1090T and 1075T.

And better RAM everywhere. No 1333MHz and C9. If someone is enthusiast enough for a Physx rig, he would probably OC as well. And better RAM is better even if you don't OC.

jasji just an idea you can add stuff still to come to India,and put newegg prices , we do have membeers abroad too so.

i would like to see seasonic x series psus added to the high end configs, and anyone willing to spend above 72k should enjoy the privelage of a modular smps , so x series will be third option besides corsair hx and ax series.

hope you like the idea
