Hi Guys,
A gaming fanatic here.... first of all, let me say how wondeful a job you all are doing here... was checking out threads and was amazed to see even Veterans giving out detailed and explanatory answers to all the ppl asking for questions.. even new members... the usually B.S that I see everywhere is, "Use the Search".... Kudos to u all..
Back to why I started a new thread... i bought a decent enough PC back in the days and then.. due to many reasons... (getting a ps3 gifted from my cousin being one of them.. ) had to give my PC a rest and was left unused for a long time.. console gaming was my thing for sometime now... gave off my GPU to my lil bro coz my onboard GPU and lappy was good for the things I used to do with my PC...browsing.... hd videos etc...
Now, I am thinking of renovating the whole thing... I am not particularly sure abt all the components but I do have a rough idea.. I will go home and make changes after opening up the cabinet...
The proccy is AMD 9850 Phenom Black Edition
Mobo: M3N-H/HDMI
4 x 2 Zion 1033 Mhz ddr2?? (Not sure if this is what it is... I had two more sticks of 4 Gigs each but gave em off to my lil bro again.. )
No GPU... (running on internal Geforce 8300)
A 500W PSU (not sure of the company)
normal keyboard and mouse from logitech
ancient set of speakers (from ma rig before this one...)
A Samsung 19 inch monitor (max res. 1280 x 1024)
I have been looking at a lot of configs suggested by you guys and I was wondering whether any of these parts can be reused... I am open to new configs from the scratch as well.. I wud like something which is fast and can give my ps3 a run for the money.. budget wud be around 40k.. may be 50? I would be grateful to someone who can gimme a more budgetised config.. maybe reuse some parts from this bulk... (saving up some money for a new car...)
Thanks everyone for reading... will update or edit if someone points out something necessary..
