(This config is FINAL no further suggestion)

Core i3 (please no x4 or phenom 555 here ...i have already considered that)
Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H
G. Skill F3-10600CL9S-2GBNT 2GB 1333MHz DDRIII

1 TB Seagate 7200.12
CM Elite 310

Sony Optiarc AD-7260S / Samsung 24x SH-S243D(if available)

KB/Mouse combo - help me decide (combo strictly under 1k as low as possible)

No monitor and gfx card for now

i need suggestions for shop which offers discounts on full pc purchase

Get a FSP Saga II 500W @ 2.7k, to make room for future upgrade. IMO, Getting all the parts in one shop, thats not a good idea. While i purchased my rig here in Chennai, i bought parts separately from many shops. Coz one got the good deal for mobo, other one for proccy. This way you get a total good deal.

But, if you get a good deal for all @ one shop, you're damn lucky man.

Logitech KB/Mouse @ 900 bucks

^^ stricly on tight budget

i wont upgrade my pc atleast for 5 years...

even if i plan to get a gfx card(thats a rarity) i would be a a 5670 or gt 430/440 maybe even 420 or 410 if nvideo releases them..lol
i mean low end ..low power consumption ones

Its just a 500 bucks more for 400W and you're good to go. Even if you buy a 5670, you need a 400W PSU at least.

Get fsp saga 2 400w @ 2k

if u want to use this pc for long, i would say athlon 2 x4 635.

Its just a 500 bucks more...

thats the way i ended up 6 months ago with
i5 750 (Its just a 500 bucks more than X4 955 BE)
24" monitor (Its just a 3000 bucks more than a 22" incher)
..

Wish you best of luck, to get all in one. Lets wait till someone know a lot about Lamington road to suggest you some shops. Bye then

 

[v.Na5h]

already know of some shops
mahavir, mccann, prime and itwares

i need suggestions regarding other stuffs involved like batch codes, mb revision, oem, bills and stuff etc etc

i mean what things must be checked before buying

 

[furious_gamer]

Only check for bills, warranty, package, and regd mobo, i hope the revision is clearly written in box. So no need to worry about that.

Also check for service centres nearest to you, so that its better for you in case of RMA. Go for itwares or Prime ABGB.

BTW Guys

Check this link out
FSP >> PC Power Supply >> ATX 12V ver.2.3 >> APN,(85)

the 350w version has a dual rail 12v of 16a
and the 400w version has a dual rail 12v of 17a

so can i add a 5770 on this psu
i calculated using the outervision calc that without gfx card
my wattage(at 100% load and 40% ageing) comes out to be

Minimum PSU Wattage: 181 W
Recommended 231 -this is 50+ of 181(which is the actual load)
add tdp 108 to 181 =290w

the guy at guru3d says the it requires 40a
and now 500w ones gives 18+18 =36a
in that case even a 500w saga II will not suffice

Radeon HD 5770 review

NOTE: 1. firstly getting a gfx card is a rarity coz if my dad sees me playing games he would kick my ass leave alone asking money for gfx card
2. secondly even if i get one ...considering 5770 as mostly i would buy gfx card below it i mean 5750,5670 or gt 430/ 440

i5 750. 24" LCD + no graphics card = no display. forget games.

hey i esp. edited my post regarding this....

won't suggest change anything, but saying is you shooting in your own leg. with a dual core proccy, i doubt you'll be able go for 3 yrs.

written as code. so not easy figure it out. all OP need check is the seal not broken in any of the items.
