OOps its above 1 lack. But " Jahen chaalees wahan ghap-chaalees.":D:D
Replace the processor with Quad Core Q9550 for about 17000.00 and add that saved amount on Palits HD4870x2 (2gb ddr5) for 35000.

Q9400 will be more VFM, you can easily OC it later.

I did ask around here but the dealers hadnt even heard about core i7 so x58 was out of the question....Will my TRUE fit on the core i7?

Why not ? If he saves 25k... he can prolly get a X360 or a good phone! And 'Why to OC ?' ... well Google it. OC is beneficial in many ways. All in all, Q9400>Q9550.

And ya, what if he wants a 2xGTX280 setup in 1 lakh ? If it was so, he would have to be satisfied with a E8500 or Q8200. 1 Lakh is still not a VERY high budget in the world of PCs. Only yesterday I was customising an Alienware notebook for fun and I saw that it reached the 7Lakh price mark...:|

why do we need that much power if everything run ok with that. And for gaming you need to oc your card.

Q9550 's new variant is gonna launch next yr with a very less power consumption.i guess its worth it,when compared to a Q9400

As far as op's rig is concerned- wait till next year.availability of nehalem is quite limited and not many boards to choose from.


BTW- NEhalem supports Triple channel DDR3 , so 3gb/6gb configurations.

I would say, for now get the cheapest mobo+proccy+ram that you can get and use for 4-5 months.

YOu will really really regret if you purchase a quadcore proccy worth 16k etc.

Get this:

1) E7200 for 5.5k
2) MSI P45 Neo-F for 5k
3) 2X2Gb DDR2 800MHz for 3.5k

E7200 is a very powerful processor and is insane overclocker.

Once the Nehalem stabilizes (should be by March), get it with the money that you saved.

Max I would pay for a processor is 8k in current market situation as Intel is moving to a new socket and you have 1L to spend on the rig.

Anyway, back to the configuration:

Monitor: BenQ 21.5" Full HD Monitor @ 13.5K
Creative Inspire 5.1 speakers @ 4K
Logitech Multimedia Lazer Combo Keyboard and Mouse @ 1.5K
Zebronics Peace Cabinet without PSU @ 1.6K
HD4850X2 GPU @ 20K
Samsung 24X SATA II DVD Drive @ 1.5K
Seagate 640GB SATA II HDD with 32mb Buffer @ 4K

OR Maxtor 1TB 10000 RPM HDD @ 9K

CPU, Mobo, RAM - need to calculate if Core i7 920 can fit in or not.
This is probably the best suggestion. With this config you can get a

Core i7 920 @ 20K
Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 @ 20K
3GB DDR3 RAM @ 10K
(+/- 2K overall and you can tweak the budget on the keyboard, mouse and speakers).

Depending on the budget(after proc+mobo+ram) instead of an HD4850X2, maybe you can squeeze in 2 x HD4850 Sonic. That way incase one card fails, you can still continue gaming while you get the other replaced.

MetalheadGautham, you didn't suggest a psu? will a Corsair cmpsu-620hx 620W be enough for this config?

Since you are spending a lot of money, don't go for a quad core. Be patient and wait atleast for 2 months and then go in for a Core i7 920 config.

^^Someday... sit back on an inclined rocking chair with a print out of every post that you make you here. Reflect if your posts has any valuable content or not. Think about it and for that you need some time. So refrain from posting here.

@Gautham :-
Seems the tri-channel has done wonders. Everybody is using 6gb RAM with i7 (well, atleast those who have it!).
