Please stay away from this. Go for Corsair vx450.

Now that's called a good suggestion! Ask your vendor if he will replace your components when they burn out the day after you buy it.
That's why I always suggest people to stay away from whatever the vendor suggests.
Can someone elaborate why games cannot be played on fireGL cards, even if they are not good for gaming, still they are graphics cards. At least the games will run with playable FPSs

at first i thought u praising the vendor. only to have a good laugh after completely reading the line.cause of different firmware, their drivers different so they don't accept catalyst drivers, hence games don't run. also same in case of Radeon cards. different firmware so they don't accept the FireGL drivers, so they can't be used for rendering as their FireGL bros. they can be used but provide far less performance.

Well, I don't know about all vendors, but from my own experiences i have learnt one thing. When you buy a PC, shortlist your options, then go and ask your vendor what to buy, cross out whatever he suggests, choose from the rest.

trust me, once my parents went to a vendor at my place (cause my 80Gb IDE went bad), he told gaming a lot damages HDD. how? cause hard drive got plates (platters) & got pins (magnetic heads) that touches the drive, so the plates get scratched. i was like WTF. a plate rotating at 7200rpm & a pin touches it. HDD will explode instantaneously. from that day i2 got my lesson, PC Vendor = biggest idiots

Pin touches the plates!!! 
Didn't you ask how many seconds it will take to cut through the plate that way?

for my bad luck i wasn't present there. else i would have surely asked him. or actually would have given him a good insult. & add to it, he was called to b engineer by all the others

good man your engineer seems to write data on metal plates. Like they used to write old books on papyrus

what is ur final config ? You didnt reply to Mavihs post.
@ pulsar, i already replied to mahvis que.............
1. What is your MAX budget?
2. Are you open to alternate ideas/products giving similar better performance but offering more VFM/ sellers? If not- why?
3. What is the purpose of the computer? (Note: If you are planning to say multimedia, you will have to be more specific as all types of systems are capable of doing that)
4. Planning to overclock?
5. Which OS are you planning to use?
6. How much hard drive space is needed?
7. What resolution will the screen run at?
8. How would you rate your hardware knowledge from the count of 1-10? (1 being the lowest, 5 being you are somewhat in sync with the current performers and 10 being the highest)
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
10. When are you planning to buy the system?
11. Are you one of the types looking out for "future proof" configurations?
12. Are there going to be any components that you don't want to include in this new rig? If yes, do mention.
13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
14. Mention any other points if deemed necessary
Answer to Mavihs Question
1. 60k
2. es (no only in cases if products are not available in my city)
3. Iterations (higher mathematical calculations) and 3d modellind in maya
4. no such plans right now
5. win 7(original, i already have one)
6. minimum 500gibs
7. alteast 1600*1200
8. "7"
9. I have built one, but this time i will do it with a assembler
10. whenever i will have the right config(i almost confirmed it today)
11. yea
12. I dont want any useless onboard GPU as i will buy GPU
13. Gwalior(M.P.) I can get some parts from internet if rates are comparable, and my vendor can make most of the parts available
14. i was just looking for a DVI port on mobo(with wire) for my camcorder
Plz suggest as fast as u can, i am in cyber....
---------- ---------- ----------
I had this config in my mind
Amd phenom x2 1055t 11.0k
asus m4a89gt0 pro 10k
4 gb ram 5.6k
500gb seagate HDD 2500
dvd writer 1.1k
logitech keyboard mouse .75
(plz suggest if u know some other in same rates)
altec speaker 2.1 1.8k
cabby(not sure) 2k
PSU(not sure) 5k
ups 800va 3k
22" asus LCD(with web cam and speaker) 13.7k
Not sure abt lcd, i think it is too costly
I will cut its budget down to 8k
or i will go with some 5k gigabyte board and add a GPU(5770)
Is this cool, or is there any better config.....

we didn't mean to hijack your thread, it all started with your vendor suggesting the frontech GPU, since you didn't post for a long time, the discussion went into other directios, but do pay attention to those posts too, not bad, good humour at least
What is meant by that?

i think you meant to say PSU. also shown the amount of knowledge these vendors stock in their top floor.
2 X WD Black 500Gb. so each cost ~3k. total: 2 X 3k=6k
pro cards require usually less power.
