Pure gaming RIG Under 50k

[Cilus]

Hmm, 65K is the budget and you will be gaming on full HD where Gaming is more GPU dependent than CPU.

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T @ 9K
Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 @ 6.6K
G-skill RipjawX 1600 MHz 4GB X 1 DDR3 @ 1.55K
Seagate/WD Blue 500 GB SATA HDD @ 4.2K
NZXT Source 210 Elite @ 2.4K
MSI HD 7870 Twin Frozer III @ 22K
Seasonic S12II 620 @ 4.6K
Logitech Gaming Mouse G400 @ 1.3K
Logitech Keyboard @ 0.4K
BenQ G2220HDL @ 7.6K
APC 1.1 KVA Black @ 4.5K

Total ~ 64K. Now this is a beast, can handle all the games at full HD resolution with ease, in future plenty of rooms for overclocking the CPU

@ OP

i5 2500k + z77 + 7870 is a rock solid gaming combo. Try to fit these in your budget as a priority than anything else. Leave them as later upgrades. Even a 7850 will suffice for fullhd.

Yes, almost the same performance. Depends on game to game. But the difference is not noticeable much by our mortal eyes. i5 2500K makes sense IF you are into some heavy CPU intensive tasks. Hell even Phenom X4 can take care of those tasks but with will take some time more. IF you can extend, go for i5 2500K + 7850 combo, there's nothing confusing in that. IF you can't, then Phenom X4 960T + 7850 will do the job without any hiccups.

I was in the same dilemma some time ago. i5 2500K + 6870 or Phenom X4 + 6950. I chose the later one. Fortunately the HD7850 got released in India pretty soon, so I am getting it instead of 6950. But I bet, your i5 2500k + 7850 vs my Phenom X4 960 + 7850, the results will almost be the same, except in some CPU intensive games and you will feel like you have invested unnecessarily on CPU

Remember, getting an i5 2500k is the BEST you can get Nothing beats it. BUT sacrificing on GPU to get it is never recommended especially for gaming.

Hope this clears out some of your doubts.

So I Should go for I5 2500k with 7850 and asrock z77 extreme 4 with 4 GB ram and 600 W SMPS/PSU

 

[RiGOD]

^^That's the best combination for gaming. Get some quality PSU like SeaSonic.

 

[Omi]

If you main concern is gaming, go with cilus config, its the best
just replace 1090T by FX8120 (almost same price)

7870 is a better overclocker and obviously performs better
and every gaming machine >50K should have it.

2500k+7850 < FX8120 +7870 in almost 99% games(xcept some games in which lead may not be very much like skyrim(which stresses CPU VERY much also starcraft and civV))
except that you get much better FPS and also Much better MIN FPS

OCED 7870 performs very,very close to a 7950

Please Suggest me any SMPS/PSU soon

I Will get a Local Speakers just to Low down The budget
And Please Suggest me a Cabinet and check this config

7870 is 15% faster than 7850 and 33% more expensive and Games runs smoothly on a faster quad core processor than that hexa-core or 8 core cpu with less Speed and 2500k is more powerful than FX 8150

What that bench doesn't show is what difference those numbers mean in Frames Per Second (i.e in gaming). You can ask more learned members here, there is hardly any difference in FPS. Heck I've read people running 7870CF on a 1090T!!!

As you said that this is a pure gaming machine, FPS matters here.
You also mentioned you are open Ocing, so if you OC 7870 you get very very near to reference 7950, and the difference is no longer 15%.

And also you save some Bucks

Rest is all your choice!

Happy Gaming!

The thing is at a specific budget you can't have the same Graphics card if you're going for 2500K over AMD 1090T or FX 8120 because the in case of the later one, the CPU + Mobo around 10K cheaper, which can be inversted to get a good Graphics card. But I'm not clear about the budget, you have mentioned the budget is 65K and in last couple of posts people are suggesting you sub 50K rigs.

If you look at the config given my be at my previous post, you'll see that I have accommodated HD 7870 at it. If you're going for 2500K then you have to be satisfied with HD 7850.

Now 1090T + HD 7870 will provide you better performance than 2500K + HD 7850, especially in 1080P resolution. At lower resolution it might be a different story as it becomes CPU dependent on that time.

Initially My Budget was 50k but as to get i5 2500k i thought not to buy Samsung Omnia W and invest that amount of money in getting a Damn. Beast intel Rig
and I need A Rig which can Able to run Games at 720p resolution, I won't be playing games @more than 900-1000p But if FPS are of games Are more than 60 at the Resolution I May Play @ 1080p and now Can you please tell me How much FPS can I get @ this resolution(720p-1000) while playing GTA 4 and Just cause 2

If you go for AMD, it will be evn good because of Hybrid CrossfireX, you can combine the power of your CPU and GPU to create super environment for games.

If you feel like Intel, go for it but I think you should go for AMD. CrossfireX helps and gaming will not require that good CPU. GPU must be good.

I would recommend :

AMD GPU + AMD GPU.

ELSE EXTENDING YOUR BUDGET AND GETTING THIS WILL BE A MONSTER:

Intel i5 2500k + HD 7870 .

 

[Cilus]

more than 60 FPS. And I am not sure where you got that 7870 is only 15% faster than 7850. 7850 performs closer to HD 6970 whereas HD 7870 is just ahead of GTX 580.

Koolent, none of the AMD 9XX chipset have onboard Graphics an Hybid CFX between the motherboard IGP and dedicated Gfx card is only possible if the Gfx card is a really lower end like HD 5570 or HD 6450. If you plug anything over HD 6670, Hybrid CFx will not work, even with the most powerful IGP 6550D present in AMD llano processor A8-3870/K

 

[koolent]

Some guy told me about this, don't want to disclose the name but will keep that in mind. Thanks Cilius.

Now, if OP overclocks the HD 6870, he will get mor potential than HD 6850.. Isn't so ?
