What the hell is Gefore graphics card @ 2500? All the gaming cards made by nVidia are termed as Geforce. And do uou really thing that a 2.5 card can play all the games in high setting when 40K cards are also available.
a 2.5K card is only a HTPC card and simply can't be considered for gaming.

Even contest.

You want to wait your Sandy Bridge, then wait for it. But it will be expensive.

i3 2100 is a dual core model with ht. Opt for sandybridge quadcores and they are very good. My pick would be an i5 2400 or if you can increase your budget, then i5 2500k.

May be he just wanted you to post accurate details.Or may be he had a bad day at the office..

Definitely i cannot go for such an expensive processor.
My budget for motherboard, processor, and a graphic card should not exceed 24k.
And my requirement is to max out games at 1680x1050, some designing, animation(future interest) video editing, photosiop etc.

I came to know that sandy bridge i3 is going to be cheaper than 955 be. And the reviews show that it has a upper hand in 80% of the tests.
My doubt is, i think i anyhow cannot afford i5 2xxx, can i opt for sandy bridge i3 leaving 955 behind or is this a bad idea looking at the dual vs quad cores.
Please suggest me.
If 955 then within a week and if sandy bridge i3 them may be after 2 months. Please clear me

Try amd phenom 2 1065t if you cannot go for sandybridge i5's. Roughly should cost around 8k.
