pc for 25k?

[coderunknown]

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

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.

i not sure but AFAIK, Officially:

X58 --->1066Mhz. over it needs OC.
P/H55 ---> 1333Mhz. over it, needs OC.
AM3 ----> 1333Mhz. over it needs OC.

i once heard asigh saying ram can be run at 1600Mhz by tweaking some settings in Bios. but no performance gain.

1600Mhz ram speed will be native in AMD Fusion. even in Sandy Bridges, Intel will retain their 1333Mhz tag.

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.

well i can't say. if going for Value section, all rams same. in performance, deeper your pocket, more performance you can extract but most needs OC. without OC, performance gain is low.

about the latter, if its for X58, 6Gb at 1 time is better. as the manufacturers may update the ram with tighter timings. so if you get a ram at loose timing & get a new module at tight timing, similar to Speed, tight timing ram will start run in loose timing mode (sacrificing lot of performance).

PS: i not sure about the timing thing. correct me if i messed up something

I think, AMD (even thubans) do not support tri-channel memory. Am I correct?

As far as 1600Mhz is concerned, I read some posts on AMD forums. Yes Sam is right, it will run at 1333Mhz only, so better not spend more to get 1600Mhz

 

[coderunknown]

yes. AMD max is dual ch. but i heard the new proccies will support tri ch (Fusion. even the slowest one will).

actually Gigabyte should have written it as 1600(OC)/1800(OC). but they removed the (OC) from the 1600Mhz one.

If UD2H is not available, you can try for Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-US2H. If that is also not available, the one you mentioned (MSI 880gm e41) also looks good, but the lack of DVI bugs me. Ask for the price of E43 if available.

(for the other members who would be wondering, he sent me a PM)

thanks dear...

Today I bought..

LCD Monitor:- Samsung B2230 22" full HD @8k
Processor:- AMD Athlon II X4 635 @5.3K

and ordered to smc for..
Motherboard:- Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H @4.8k
RAM:-Gskill Ripjaws DDR3 1333 2*2 4GB kit @5.3k

and total is 10300 including all charges.

Ordered to Lynx-India
Power supply:- FSP Saga II 400W @2.1k

total is 2.5k including all charges...

I like cooler master elite 310 and 360 but courier charges for cabinets are too high so I'll buy zebronics bijli from local dealer..

 

[coderunknown]

^^ nice. congrats. well, for PSU you should have ordered from MediaHome or IT Wares. total cost will be 2.2k only inc of tax & carry charge.

I ordered Saga II 400w from itwares before 5 days but no any response yet and my order is still in pending status...

I cancelled my order from lynx and now I'm looking for mediahome.

 

[coderunknown]

thats the problem with IT Wares. slow response in many case.

 

[dsmarty]

I ordered FSP Saga II 500W @2425/- (including all charges) from Lynx-India and it will be dispatched tonight...

And my order from smc for 880GM-UD2H, CM elite 310 will be dispatched in the evening and Gskill Ripjaws 2*2 4GB RAM will be dispatched on monday because it's not in the stock.

I want to add one extra fan to side panel because April to August temp. is 38 to 48 here and my room temp is 30-40 so I think I should install an extra fan on side panel.

Please suggest me a good fan..

Whoa
that is good pricing!!

 

[dsmarty]

Whoa
that is good pricing!!

yup dear..
I ordered FSP saga II 400W from Lynx @2425/-(2090+83.60+250) then next day I found FSP Saga II 500W@2100 at mediahome and discussed with lynx-india about price difference then finally lynx updated their price list and changed the order to FSP Saga II 500W in the same price...

I'm very impressed by their service and live support.. click here to see chat discussion.

Thaks to you, many people are going to save some money. Very good pricing by Lynx, 2090+taxes.

@piyush120290.. thanks dear brother.

 

[Piyush]

any 120mm fan by cooler master will do good
but dont go for those Excaliburs or LEDs
simple one which will cost u around 200Rs

Ooopss.. I was thinking about CM 120mm LED fan, BTW what's the problem with that fan.

 

[Cool Buddy]

make sure the side fan is an intake fan

 

[dsmarty]

make sure the side fan is an intake fan

I request you to please tell me something in detail about side fan that why it should be an intake fan??

Is it good to add a fan to side panel or should I install it to front??

 

[Cool Buddy]

I am not sure what fans are present by default in CM 310, but I think there is a 120mm rear fan. Now rear fan is always an outflow fan. The side panel fan falls in front of the graphics card and CPU. Both the CPU & gfx card fan are inflow fans. So putting an outflow fan at the side not only makes it useless, but also prevents air from flowing out from the back panel. So an intake fan at the side will bring in fresh air from outside the cabinet and keep it cooler.
If you mount the fan in front then also it should be an inflow fan. If you mount the fan at top (I don't think elite 310 has the place for that, but still) it will be an outflow fan

 

[dsmarty]

nice exlaination... thanks buddy.

Yup, there is a 120mm rear fan and it has 120mm fan option for side panel and in front, so I'll add two 120mm intake fans in both side for making it more cool.
