I have opted for HD6870 Sapphire card. It might be upto 12k. Now for this I would need 500W supply at minimum? Please correct me if am wrong.

Below are the options for me:

FSP SAGA II 500W Power Supply - 2500/-
Cooler Master Extreme Power 500W SMPS - 3200/-
TAGAN STONE ROCK MAX POWER 500W Power Supply - 3900/-
SeaSonic SS-500ES 500W 80+ Certified Power Supply - 3900/-
Corsair CMPSU-500CX Power Supply 500W - 4000/-

Or in 600W (Pls confirm if its necessary? )
TAGAN STONE ROCK TG500-U37 MAX POWER 600W - (3200-5000/-) -> Lot of cost variation exists. Are there 2 versions?
Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus SMPS 600W - (3700-4200/-)
Corsair CMPSU-600CX Power Supply 600W - 4600/-
Corsair CMPSU-600GS Power Supply 600W - 4900/-

Go for DH67BL
The Benq G2220Hd is one to go for according to me

Thanks but it ain't LED? Can I go for Dell ST220M at a same price almost which is LED?

Go for DH67BL
The Benq G2220Hd is one to go for according to me

Also reg DH67BL, is it better than the other three I mentioned namely, DH67CL, DH67GD, DH67VR ? I just want to get the best of these three

Are those prices inclusive tax. If yes then ok else quite overpriced. You can choose FSP II 500W @ 2200 else go with Corsair GS600 @ 3800 to be in safer side.

Thanks but it ain't LED? Can I go for Dell ST220M at a same price almost which is LED?

If want a full HD monitor get BenQ G2220HD; if you want a LED monitor but not full HD then Dell ST2020M. If you need both get BenQ G2222HDL @ 8100. Don't know price of ST2220M and if it's available or not. If you are getting @ same price of G2220HD which is 7100 then go for it.

Also reg DH67BL, is it better than the other three I mentioned namely, DH67CL, DH67GD, DH67VR ? I just want to get the best of these three

DH67BL is VFM. Go for it IMO.

Thanks a lot shayem!

You suggested me to go for GS600 corsair, is it something like excess wattage leads to any issues? If I go for i5 2500, intel h67 mobo, Sapphire HD6870, will I need a 600 W or can I be happy with Corsair 450W or any other 500W? Please suggest on this.

Those prices are from ebay. I stay in hyderabad. SMC and primeabgb do not have all the items needed....i guess ebay is overpriced for computer components...Local rates might be around little less than ebay...or the same...

Please suggest me the best place where I can get online...

There is no such thing like excess watage. A X watt PSU means it is designed to deliver up to X watt power as required by the system it is powering up. It will not give provide 600W all the time and will provide as much as it is required.

SMC has most of them. For others, check itwares.

Component Make Price
Processor Intel Core i5 2500 10200
Motherboard DH67BL 5000
RAM Corsair 4GB 2400
HDD Seagate 1TB 7200.12 2750
GPU Sapphire HD6870 1GB 13000
PSU Corsair GS600 4100
Case CM Elite 430 2750
Monitor Dell ST2220M 8200
KB+M logitech/microsoft 700
Total 49000

Please check the above quote I got...Do you think this is fine for me? Or shall I opt for 550W Cooler master or even corsair 500W? Because in some shops, this corsair GS600 is not available. I only have an option of cooler master 600W or 550W. And also corsair 500W. Is this wattage enough to go for corsair or should I go for cooler master 550W or 600W provided corsair 600W is really not available.

Also am confused between 2 RAMS available in corsair. One is 2400 and other is 2600 (XMS3) of 1333 DDR3. Please suggest.

XMS3 — 2GB DDR3 Memory Module (CMX2GX3M1A1333C9) (Does this have heat sink and shall i take 2 of these? Is this necessary?)

Corsair 4GB CMV4GX3M1A133 Memory (Plain 4 GB RAM? Is this fine?)

Also I was given an option of acer 22 inch LED and it also costs 1000/- less. Is that fine?

Please confirm.

for monitor get BenQ G2222HD, better than the model you are getting. If not available then stick with dell.

Price of those component is inclusive tax? If yes then pretty much ok. If no then overpriced. Mainly GPU is overpriced ,inclusive or exclusive tax. It should be around 11500 all.

Yes would go for benq led 2222 only and it is priced at 8800/-.
For ram, am going for Corsair Memory — 4GB DDR3 Memory (CMV4GX3M1A1333C9)

Also for psu, if corsair gs 600 ain't available, shall i go for 500W corsair. I was advised not to go for Cooler master.

Hi friends,

Will do it as soon as I buy a table :p


Processor i5 2500(+VAT) 10400
Mobo Intel DH67BL 4800
Graphics Card Sapphire Radeon HD 6870(+VAT) 12900
PSU Corsair GS 600 4000
RAM Corsair 1X4GB DDR3 1900
Cabinet Cooler Master Elite 430 2800
Keyboard+Mice Logitech MK200 650
Monitor BenQ G2222HDL 8550
UPS APC Back UPS 600 1900

One more thing, I was offered GS700 instead of 600 at the same rate. But I had insisted on GS600 only and got it. Do u guys think 700 might have had issues with the rest of config?

You ditched GS700 @same price for GS600. :shock: why?
If you didn't open it then give it back and get GS700 if he still offer it @same price. But make sure it's not old product. check import and manufacturing date.

He he...yes:-x

The manufacturing date is Nov 2010.:?: Was confused at tat time as suddenly the people over there were implying tax which was exceeding my budget. Also as am not aware of these, couldn't take risk in going for 700 at tat moment :sad:
Moreover the GS600 is of about Feb 2011 date. The Mobo is of Jan 2011, Processor and RAM of April 2011, graphic card also March 2011.

So now I guess there would have been no issues if I had gone for 700 :oops:

One more thing, the monitor of BenQ G2222HDL I got is of import date June 2010. There was no latest available, Do you think there might be any issue or should I talk on that with them once?

Please suggest!
