I will be trying my hands on overclocking

 

[rahul.007]

hey saurabh, y so much confusion???? you came to my house and saw my rig.... isnt it good.... go with my config and get corsair vx 450w.... else remains the same....

 

[saurabh_1e]

AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Rs :8098/-
MSI 790GX-G65 [HDMI] Rs :6668/-

kingston 2x2GB DDR-III Rs :5000/-
WDC 500GB Black S-ATA 3.5" Hard Drive - WD5001AALS Rs :3125/-

Will Get corsair 450vx if in future if i want a graphic card i will be safe.

for mobo get this: DFI LANPARTY BI 785G-M35. excellent mobo. & you missing a CPU cooler if you plan on OC.

 

[saurabh_1e]

Just tell me which chipset is better 790gx or 785g

Thats all this will decide my mobo.
please help me

 

[rahul.007]

this mobo isnt available in nehru place....

and you saurabh, as i said go with my config and get carsair vx450w.... 790gx chipset is better than 785g chipset.... and msi 790gx g65 is a really good buy
indeed....

 

[saurabh_1e]

Getting biostar mobo based on 890gx will crossfire it. rest remains same

Biostar got one 890GX based mobo named Biostar TA890GXE & its mATX with inly 1 Pcie X16 slot. how can you crossfire? however if you talking about Hybrid Crossfire, its not possible with midrange + IGP.

i'll say, get a cheaper 790GX mobo (or maybe 785G) + a descent cooler rather than a costly 790GX mobo & trying to push ur proccy clock higher & making it fry & later complaining here for your own faults.

@rahul, u own a Phenom II. have you tried OC it? if yes you'll know how hot it becomes. its stock cooler is one of best stock cooler i seen still it not sufficient.

 

[rahul.007]

hey sam.shab, saurabh isnt into gaming at all.... he is just a programming freak.... just give huim an overclockable cpu(like mine) and a board with decent igp (like mine or 890gx)....

 

[saurabh_1e]

I was talking of hybrid crossfire only.But i thought it be done using midrange like
5650 or 5750 or low range 5450 cards.

so i will not be going for crossfire just
tell me biostar 790gx or msi 790gx or biostar 890gx.
For hsf
Coolermaster Hyper N520 Rs :2357/-

than why he after crossfire & all? if he only does programming, IGP + Athlon II X4 looks enough. ok if he wants buy Phenom II X4, its his decision. but also he told he'll OC. with stock cooler, it'll run hotter than Fermi cards. so he can get Biostar 890GX which is very cool looking & performing board. Phenom II (his choice). Corsair CX400W. enough to support any midlevel card. & a 1.5k cooler like Scythe Katata 3 to help him in OC. done. if cooler is not avl, get some other descent cooler. what u say?

Hybrid Crossfire is bakwaas. its almost useless. performance gain too low. an HD5670 will thrash any hybrid crossfire setup. so better get HD5670 rather than HD5570 or maybe HD5450 thinking about hybrids & all.

890GX = 790GX + Sata 3. thats all. biostar TA790GX A3+ is a good board. costing about 5.5k. but MSI's board is equally good. but both i feel are useless if you don't use Crossfire. Biostar 890GX cost 5.5k & is mATX. check it out. so conclusion, Biostar 890GX or MSI 790GX. its upto u.

 

[saurabh_1e]

leave all crossfire stuff .never going to cross fire .
For hsf cooler master n520
might buy sapphire 5770 in future (within 6 months)

now tell me which motherboard biostar 790gx or 890gx or msi 790gx.

+1. it seems right.... so phenom 2 955 and corsair vx450(saurabh's choice).... msi 790gx looks good.... me using it.... great board indeed.... but go with biostar.... sata 3 and costs 500 bucks less than mine.... what u say sham????

 

[saurabh_1e]

now confuse between micro-atx or full atx

 

[rahul.007]

saurabh is going with biostar 890gx bit its costing him 7k with vat.... any suggestipons???/


also is cm n520 better or katana would suffice????

(BOTH ARE SAURABH'S QUES....)

as saurabh already told, Bio* 890GX =7k. he'll get better IGP(it OC past 1.2Ghz) + Sata 3. MSI 790GX = Sata2 + full ATX + Crossfire (useless) + good IGP (he may OC to 900Mhz). & both will cost almost same. my vote Biostar cause it got Sata3. rest no other advantage over MSI.

& for PSU. i again telling, he not need VX450. CX400W or Seasonic 380W enough to handle HD5770.

now confuse between micro-atx or full atx

oh man. more confusion? with ATX you will get a slightly less clumsy cpu interior. but that not matters much. also ATX are easy to work on.

(BOTH ARE SAURABH'S QUES....)

if he not needs the extra Pcie X 16 slot. no problem with mATX, he good to go.

about cooler i not sure. Katana3 looks good & is a really good cooler @ 1.6k. n520 cost more so will surely be better. how much? not sure about it as well. but availability may pose another big problem if he choose Katana3.

 

[saurabh_1e]

Thanks sham for all your help as 2nd pci-e slot is least of my concern going with biostar 890gx.But now price is my concern it should be less than 7k
psu will be corsair 400vx .

i am not going with some mid level graphic card like 5650 becuase If i feel that i require a graphic card after using my rig it will block all my ways of getting good graphic card like 5770 both financially and covering the pci-e slot.

 

[rahul.007]

hey lallu(saurabh).... y so much confusion???? go with biostar 890gx.... i know you will not be adding any graphics card in future.... also i read its reviews.... good ocable board indeed.... and sam, i wanna buy a cpu cooler costing below 3k.... any suggestions????

well than i feel 890GX best for him. 7k & sata3 + better OC graphics than 790GX's. & cooler? sorry rahul, no idea on the coolers man. i just have went through 1.5k coolers & found katana3 best choice. better than CM Hyper TX2/TX3's.

if you not into gaming why you running after graphics card? 890GX better than you expect for all your graphics word you'll ever do + a bit of gaming.
