Want a gaming rig for 25k

[theserpent]

^ Will 7850 hit india before april

Hey guys my parents agreed for pc without GFX Card FOR now.
So i want Cpu+Motherboard+ram+cabinet+PSU for 16-17k(Tight)..It should work with XFX 5450(PCI express 2.1 support,Dont know if it will work with new PCI's )

 

[coderunknown]

^^ the pcie standard doesn't mean a lot to lowend user. will work. I am online from mobile so can't post config.

 

[theserpent]

Ohk,So should i go with intel config,Even my parents say intel now(If not good,i can go with Amd to)??With a motherboard with hdmi.

^^ FX is not good. Phenom II X4 or Core i5 is the way to go. Heres a config:

Core i5 2400 @ 10.8k
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2H @ 3.4k
Corsair 4Gb DDR3 @ 1.2k
WD 500Gb @ 4.3k
Gigabyte HD7750 @ 6.2k
Corsair CX430W @ 2.3k

TOTAL: 28.2k

now get a local cabby for 1k (without PSU) & for 800 bucks a mouse. let someone else suggest mouse.

In case you want to go AMD route:
Phenom II X4 960T @ 6.8k
Gigabyte GA-880GM-D2H @ 3.8k
MSI R6850 Cyclone 1GD5 Power Edition/OC @ 8.6k

TOTAL: 27k

buy from SMC or Flipkart and have it assembled locally for 500bucks. or do it yourself

Phenom II X4 960 can unlock into 6 core ?

 

[theserpent]

Intel or AMD for 20k?

 

[whitestar_999]

don't try unlocking 960T on a budget mobo.at least get a good asus mobo(costs ~6300 i think)for better safety as unlocking to 6 cores put a lot of stress on VRMs & budget mobos usually do not have high quality VRMs.

Serpent, wait for the launch of HD 7800 series in India and then decide the rig based on the price of it. Right now they are reaching very quickly in Indian market. HD 7700 series is already available with SMC.

 

[theserpent]

^ Im buyinh GFX card later.Now im buying all other things like CPU+MOBO+case+psu..

 

[Cilus]

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE @ 6.4K
Motherboard: Asus M5A88-M @ 5.9K
Ram: G-skill Ripjaw/kingston HyperX Blue 1600 MHz CL9 4GB X 1 DDR3 @ 1.5K
Corsair GS600 600W 80+ PSU @ 4K
NZXT Source 201 Elite @ 2.4K

Total 20.2K

 

[theserpent]

Ohk thanks cilus.. will it work with my 5450?
My parents are saying for an intel..There if we now take a good pc only

 

[Cilus]

Buddy, any PCI-Express Graphics card works with any motherboard having a PCI-E X16 slot.

 

[theserpent]

^ Ohk thanks is Intel also good?

Core i5 2400 @ 10.8k
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2H @ 3.4k
Corsair 4Gb DDR3 @ 1.2k
Corsair CX430W @ 2.3k
Is this also good enough?as per sam Suggested?
Or should i go with Amd as your suggestion

Back from a computer shop,They suggested me to get an Intel Pc as it last longer an all...
They said they can give only 1500 for my cpu+motherboard ....
My Dads Behind a monitor with built in webcam.,an speakers can't make him understand about that

 

[whitestar_999]

performance wise intel is better but if you are buying i5 2400 then get a H67 based mobo.intel DH67CLB3 costs ~5400 & is a good board for its price & features.

 

[coderunknown]

Ohk,So should i go with intel config,Even my parents say intel now(If not good,i can go with Amd to)??With a motherboard with hdmi.

if you want strictly Intel based PC, get the config i suggested sans GPU.

Phenom II X4 960 can unlock into 6 core ?

yes but it mayn't be stable.

^ Ohk thanks is Intel also good?

Core i5 2400 @ 10.8k
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2H @ 3.4k
Corsair 4Gb DDR3 @ 1.2k
Corsair CX430W @ 2.3k

Is this also good enough?as per sam Suggested?

all depends on your budget. If you can get this config without sacrificing or compromising on any other thing, go for it.

Back from a computer shop,They suggested me to get an Intel Pc as it last longer an all...

duh

They said they can give only 1500 for my cpu+motherboard ....

sell it

My Dads Behind a monitor with built in webcam.,an speakers can't make him understand about that

3 points why you shouldn't get monitor with built in cam.
1. high price
2. if something goes bad, you know.
3. quality of cam

show dad some webcam from flipkart. lot better.

 

[theserpent]

^^Hes like There so many wires blah blah blah......
Ok i guess ill go with intel config ...as i see the motherboard doesnt have a Hdmi(For futures Hd monitor).So now ill use this with my 5450?Will there be little better gaming performace.Ill take a 7850 after it releases in india

Ok im going with this.
Core i5 2400 @ 10.8k
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2H @ 3.4k
Corsair 4Gb DDR3 @ 1.2k
Corsair CX430W @ 2.3k
Will add 7850

 

[whitestar_999]

spend 2000 more & get intel DH67CLB3 with usb3,esata & sata3.

 

[skeletor]

Massive clean up. eh. Ankit07 gets a week's ban.

But will 6850 be good for 3 years?How is a monitor with built in speakers?
Ok how much will i get by selling this.
Athlon 7750
3 Gb DDR 2 Ram.
XFX 5450 1 GB
Circle Pc case.
Asus M2N68-AM Plus

Do this:

Update Asus M2N68-AM Plus to the latest BIOS. ASUS - Motherboards- ASUS M2N68-AM PLUS

Buy Athlon II X4 645 or Phenom II X4 840 for around Rs. 5000 and put it in your existing motherboard.

Corsair CX430v2 + HD 7770 = Rs. 2200 + 8600.
Corsair CX430v2 + HD 7850 = Rs. 2200 + wait_for_launch.

^,I have decided for an i5 even my parents i5 now.They say to get a good one.

what's the point? You're upgrading for playong games and gaming perfotmance are mostly decided by the graphic card, not processor.

Spending 12K on a processor when you aren't doing that kind of work is foolish.

 

[theserpent]

Ohk,thanks...ill go with AMD then
