@OP : which kind of i5 does your cuz want? i5 IB or i5 SB

 

[Sainatarajan]

Ivybridge will be better . If sandy is Cheap and same performance , then sandy for sure.

I think He might be adding a 20K Graphics Card for sure in the Future [ May be 2 to 3 Months ]

 

[indtail]

how do you plan on playing said games without a graphic card?

 

[Sainatarajan]

HE told HE is having his bday on AUG 1 . So HE will get money from his parents and relatives . And buy a graphic card.

Presently, only unlocked IB i5,i7 processors are released. At this budget your cousin can;t afford any of them. Be happy with 2400.

 

[Sainatarajan]

Ok . So will the CORSAIR PSU handle Graphic Card around 20K

 

[d6bmg]

Ok . So will the CORSAIR PSU handle Graphic Card around 20K

0ay be yes, may be no. Will depend on the graphics card which he is planning to buy.
To be in the safe side, your cousin may buy
Corsair GS600 or TX650V2.

 

[Sainatarajan]

I thought of seasonic s12 520W.
I think he will buy HD 7870 or GTX 670

 

[d6bmg]

I thought of seasonic s12 520W.
I think he will buy HD 7870 or GTX 670

Both have 5 years of warranty (i.e. Corsair TX series & Seasonic)
Very few people have experience with Seasonic's RMA service, whereas Corsair RMA service is one of the best in India.

 

[RiGOD]

Seasonic have 3 years of warranty (?) whereas Corsair TX series have 5 years of warranty.

SeaSonic also has 5 years warranty buddy.

 

[Sainatarajan]

So , I will go wid the PSU which has better warranty and RMA

 

[d6bmg]

SeaSonic also has 5 years warranty buddy.

Ok, I'm not sure of it and that's why I put a question mark beside it. Corrected. And thanks for letting me know.

 

[Cilus]

I am not sure about Seasonic warranty and after sales service but Corsair looks better in this particular area. Also Corsair provides Replaceable warranty whereas Seasonic and most of the other brands provide repairable warranty.

So better get the brand which provides better service in your area. Build quality and performance wise both are neck to neck.

 

[Sainatarajan]

Ok Guys , I will make him get a CORSAIR . Also He looking forward to buy a HD 7850 .

hi nice configs
i want to suggest to go for Seasonic S12II-520 because it has 5 years warranty
and more juice on 12volt rail and its bronze , Corsair cx500v2 which i am using has 3 years warranty
seasonic will cost 300-500 rs more....
seasonic service center is in kolkata i don't know about rest places
corsair rma service is really amazing my psu was dead in 3 days after purchase they gave me new psu in 7 days in Mumbai
so if you want 5 year warranty in corsair you have to buy TX series
on other thoughts ivy bridge and motherboard and all gona have 3 years warranty

 

[Sainatarajan]

Thanx maddy

Should I go wid the config that I have Mentioned above ?
