Processor and MoBo and Graphics Card

psagar10

Right off the assembly line
I'm planning of building a good gaming and multitasking pc for myself...but 'm confused for processor between amd and intel
1) AMD Phenom 2 X6
2) Intel i5 2500k
3) AMD bulldozer (but thinking of dropping it as the critics have panned it badly)
4) Intel i7 2600k
i need good graphics support must...i do lot of multitasking and video encoding stuff too so the processor must be able to handle that smoothly...

till now i have pondered for i5 2500k but need second opinion also my budget is 20-25k including components like 1Tb hard-disk,4/8 GB ram, 1GB graphics card

as for motherboard have just looked at the ones which support 2500k
1) Asus p8z68-v
2) ASROCK extreme3 gen3
( Z68 MoBo's only)

also need super high suggestion on graphic card should support highend gaming and preferably under 5k

laborare est orare
Now i5 2500K costs around 13K, a good Z68 motherboard is around 8K (Biostar TZ68+), 4GB ram is around 1.5K, 1TB HDD is 5.5K and a standard Graphics card is around 5K. So total is around 31.5K. Now you need a good PSU around 3K to handle all these above mentioned components. In other words, your requirements can't be fulfilled at a budget of 25K with Intel Setup.

So go with
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T @ 9K
Gigabyte GA-880GM-USB3 @ 4.8K
G-skill RipjawX 1600 MHz 4GB Ram @ 1.5K
Seagate 250GB HDD @ 3.4K
MSI HD 6670 1 GB GDDR5 @ 5.4K
Corsair CX 500 V2 @ 3K

Total is around 27.1K
