pc for 25k?

[Cool Buddy]

yeah, that's what I meant by online. Ordering online from SMC or primeabgb (Mumbai, I suppose).

So guys, its confirmed, Bikaner is the worst city to buy a computer. I feel sorry for the poor computer lovers living there.

Hope dsmarty is able to get it from some other place.

 

[coderunknown]

NO. my city is worst place to buy a PC. only Intel stuffs available. absolutely no AMD. and even if a couple of processors available, price is sky high & motherboards are total crap. also best graphics card currently available is GTX260 (maybe 460 too, i doubt). also only Tagan, iBall Splinter & Cooler Master Extreme Power (all at over the head prices).

 

[dsmarty]

I'm very grateful to all of you for this favour.....

I will try my best to get it....

Processor: Athlon II X4 635 2.9GHz
mobo: Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H
RAM: Kingston 2x2 4GB DDR3 1333mhz

if bundled power supply isn't enough for above configuration then which power supply should I buy??

go for FSP Saga II 350 Watts, that will suffice for ur config. @1.5k

FSP Saga II 350 Watts ? Lynx - The Audio , Electronics & Computer Online Superstore In India

and instead of kingston go for corsair ram which is almost the same price of kingston @ 2.5k

If you can spare the money go for FSP Saga II 400W @ 2.2k, buying 350W SMPS will limit your future upgrades. With 400W you will easily be able to add a mid-range graphics card. You can also look for Antec Earthwatts 380W/430W. (I don't know the price of these, not available online)
On second thoughts, considering the availability at your place, just forget about these.

^^
antec earth watts was my fav series a couple of years ago
it carries the same reputation as corsair's VX and TX series
but the availibility here is not upto the mark

I'm not a gamer so I won't add graphic card ever and I think inbuilt graphic card is enough for my needs..

If bundled power supply sufficient then I won't go with any other option.

 

[Cool Buddy]

Then the bundled power supply would be sufficient. But still I would advice you to add an FSP Saga II 350W if your budget permits. The components are much safer that way and you would have to pay just Rs. 1000 extra.

thanks dear..

FSP Saga II 350W cost me around 16k and FSP Saga II 400W isn't more than 2200 so better choice would be FSP Saga II 400W with cooler master elite 310 or zebronics bijli.

 

[Cool Buddy]

Yes, that's true. But you only said that you wouldn't be adding a gfx card. So what's the use of a 400W SMPS. Better save 600 bucks.

 

[Nemes!s]

so here you go.....

AMD Processor Athlon II X4 635 @5040
Biostar TA785G3 HD @4284
FSP Saga II 350 Watts @1540
Corsair TW3X4G-1333C9 4GB Kit @5250
Coolermaster Elite 310 @1515
benq 18.5" G922HDL LCD @6008
Logitech Laser MK140 @863
LG DVD RW GH22NS50 @1111
HDD - is excluded as you said u already have one

Total @25611
these pricing are on Lynx Chandigarh - Largest Audio , Electronic & Computer Online Superstore In India so you can order it from there or u can find any other online store...prices should be identical with all.. but shipping will cost you few more bucks...best luck

Hi guys..

Today I sent a mail to SMC for below config.....

procy:- AMD Athlon II X4 635
Mobo:- Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H
Cabi.:- Zebronics Bijli or CM elite 310
PSU :- FSP Saga II 350W
RAM :- Crosair 2x2 4GB DDR3 1333mhz

After 1 hour I got the mail with price list..

procy:- AMD Athlon II X4 635 @5000
Mobo:- Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H @4750
Cabi.:- Zebronics Bijli or CM elite 310 @1500
PSU :- FSP Saga II 350W N/A (CM 460 Real power @3300)
RAM :- Crosair 2x2 4GB DDR3 1333mhz N/A (Crosair 2x2 4GB DDR3 1600mhz @5400)
shipping charge extra


So I think lynx India is a better option for both products...

 

[coderunknown]

get the PSU from IT Wares. also the ram (SMC got G.Skill, can try those). Lynx you may try, but they don't add tax. so add it up.

 

[Cool Buddy]

You can buy the RAM. If you get 1333Mhz, you'll save just 200-300. So if you want you can get the 1600Mhz ones. And sam is correct, since you'll have to assemble it yourself anyways, so get the PSU from some place else. And when you ask for Zeb Bijli, specifically mention that you want it without the bundled PSU.

Gigabyte 880gm-ud2h supports DDR3 1066/1333/1666 and 1800(OC)

so it's a good idea to buy 1600mhz instead of 1333mhz..

I thought about compatibility issue because I don't want to OC but I again check and found it supports 1666 .

 

[Nemes!s]

you can go ahead with Corsair or G.skill ram, both are good when it comes to ram...

get g.skill ripjawas from smc

its 1600Mhz & to achieve it, you need OC the processor. else it'll run at 1333Mhz only

 

[dsmarty]

I'm just little confused about overclocking.... I don't think oc is required to run 1600mhz ram on this motherboard as the memory standard is DDR3 1066/1333/1666/1800(OC) ....correct me if I'm wrong

 

[Cool Buddy]

I don't think so, if that would be the case, it would have been written 1600(O.C.) in the brackets. Correct me if I'm wrong. Also read note 2 in the motherboard specification on gigabyte's website.

^ sam

bro...can u tell me which ram is better? corsair or gskill?
and is there any difference in buying 2gb+2gb+2gb separately or buying 6 gb strip in one go?

thanks in advance.
