hey all,

I am upgrading my system for gaming and gaming only.
i decided two config to upgrade y system (Intel & AMD) Let me know your view and give rate on one of this ( please must specify reason why you selecting this build). and if you have another build then please let me know (but procy must be AMD 1055t or Intel I7 950)

Intel Build Cost Approx 57000/-
Intel i7 950
Asus SABERTOOTH X58
3 X 2 GB corsair DDR3 1333 MHz (need suggestion)
AMD Radeon HD 6850 1 GB GDDR5 256Bit
PSU Corsair TX750W
Cooler Master V8

OR

AMD Build Cost Approx 45000/-
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 125 W
MSI 890FXA-GD70
Corsair Value DUAL - DDR3 1x2GB 1333MHz Rs. 2,100 (*4) = 8GB
AMD Radeon™ HD 6850 Graphics 1 GB GDDR5 127W
PSU Corsair TX750W
Cooler Master V8

as i found I7 950 is much better then AMD 1055t (not an intel fanbody, i am using AMD from last 8 years. but i have tested a system at my friend's room. it was Intel It 950)

i need your help to decide => will intel Build worth to spend approx 10000/- more to invest. or should i add 10000/- again in AMD Build to Add more/Good Memory or High GPU.

as we all are know, AMD and Intel are going to updated socket very soon (First Q 2011).
i know this build can help me approx 3 year, if required then i can add additional 6/8 GB Memory and 1 GPU.

i cannot wait till 2011 March. i need to decide now.

Please help me to take decision and please suggest good reason.

Thanks & Regards
bhupesh

Oh...k!!
"i dont thing that C2D or dual core will run advance game" : I dun think u r right abt it!Almost all the games till date don't need more than 2 cores!!So if u get a dual core with a high clock speed its more than enuf for gaming!But for other CPU needy stuff u mite wanna look into quad or hexa cores!!

I feel you should get an X58 setup if you afford it.

Intel i7 950
Asus SABERTOOTH X58 (price below 13K i heard :O)
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
ASUS TUF Sabertooth X58 review
Asus Sabertooth X58 motherboard Review
3 X 2 GB DDR3 1333MHz/1600Mhz (eg Corsair XMS3 6GB kit)
AMD Radeon HD6850 1 GB GDDR5 256Bit (available?)
Corsair TX750W (get Corsair HX750 if possible)
Noctua U12P SE2 cpu cooler

950 is far better than 1055t.

also TX650 is more than sufficient...even VX550W will do..750w is a great overkill.
get MSI X58 PRO-E @ 10.5k instead and change GFX Card to HD6870 @ 14.6k when available. this combo will be better for gaming..
for ram look at G.Skill or corsair.

also tell which cabinet you have..

yes, i know its really a good build. but it cost me 10000/- more then AMD (here i am not able to decide that will this worth or should i spend 10000/- in AMD build for SSD, more memory or Another GPU "Multi GPU").
AMD Radeon HD6850 1 GB GDDR5 256Bit is available (Approx 200$) and if i order then it may take approx 7 day to reach indore (MP)

Thanks
