    Asus p5Q pro = 9650 @ ITW

     

    sound.... if u were referring to sound card ... its included in mobo

    or the current Hifi one is Creative I-trigue 3000 gr8 styling i must say

     

    cabinet=

    -NZXT tempest @6k --- excellent cooling and has every thing a gamer needs + bang for buck

    6400+ has only 2mb cache ..and is already out dated

     

    go for C2D e7400 if ur goin' for dualcore.... ( its got 4mb cache... can hold a bit longer than the 2mb one....)

     

    and there is no point importing 4870 for 9.5k when u can get the manli brand one here itself for 10.5k....

    ^^ 6k for cpu+mobo=phail....

     

    any ways...cpu:: AMD Athlon 64 x2 7750+ Rs 3200

     

    Mobo:: Asus M2N MX - SE + Rs 2425

     

    This is a flop cpu + flop mobo = utterflop performance...

     

    If u are in a budget... Ive posted a 24k config in Gaming pcs thread

     

    Get that one It fits ur budget.. change GPU to ur 4870...

     

    and .. may god bless u to get away from the customs...

    If u get stuck ull end up paying double:P

    Accept it or not, i7 is the best proc out there and is also most sought after proccy.

    Though i7 920 looks good with a 15k price tag on it competing with any other extreme quadcore proccy... It has hidden costs of X58 mobo and DDR3 ram....

     

    but If u want to make a good futureproof rig... there is no choice except i7 rite now...

     

    So here is the cheapest i7 u can ever make....@65k

     

    CPU:: i7 920 Rs 15500/-

    core_i7_logo_1.png

    Mobo:: MSI X58 pro Rs 13500/-

    MSI%20x58%20pro%2003.jpg

     

    Ram:: Patriot low latency PSD34G1333K 4gb 1333Mhz DDR3 Rs5000/-

     

    PSU:: Tagan Modular 800w BZ800w modular Rs8000/-

     

    HDD+DVD:: Rs 4000/-

     

    Case:: 6k Nzxt tempest shuld do the trick

    nzxt-tempest.jpg

    GPU::Here are some options...

    -ATI Radeon HD 4870 1gb Rs 13000/- usually...

     

    -but rite now there is a galaxy GTX 275 OC version @ 13,500/- at techenclave

     

    -Manli brand HD 4890 (reference card model) 13k also @ techenclave

     

    crysis warhead GPU performances...warhead1920.gif

     

    total @65k approx

     

    pros::

    -u are getting i7 experience for 65k

    -gr8 value I must say..

     

    cons::

    -a lot of compromises

    -6gb ram can make hell lot of difference

    -inferior GPU than THE ROGUE ( considering 4870)

    -if u get a gtx 275.. this board aint sli enabled but crossfire...

     

    suggested upgrades:

    -as I said 6gb can bring a LOT of difference..

    -add another 5k to budget and get a good gfx card like gtx 285 or 4890 OC (keep checking ebay and techenclave .. with dollar value so less.. it aint a bad idea to import a better card)

    - get a monster cooler like v8 or v10( if u have the money) and OC to atleast 3.2Ghz ( u can go upto 4.2 on air!!)...

     

    future:: 4yrs max without touching a thing... 8-10yrs upgrading ram and GPU down the road...

     

    my thoughts::

    65k is slightly less (by 5k) to higer midrange segment and far away( by 15k) from actual midrange segment .... so it is well in budget and faaar away(35k) from enthusiast segment(the segment to which i7 belongs to!!!)

     

    There is no doubt tht i7 is the best out there... clubbed with a gtx 275 ( if u take advantage of tht deal) it will certainly outperform THE ROGUE and costs only 10k more...

    hey guys....

     

    Play "boom boom pow" in the background for better results... :cry:

     

    After quite a while of exile period and creating a bunch of utter-flop processors AMD now jumped back into the race,back in its favorite mid-range budget segment.

     

    No matter what, AMD has been ruling the mid-range segment, and there is no wonder if this will continue.

     

    Now, this configuration is budget based futureproof gaming PC.

     

    Right at the site of futureproof u'd jump out of ur chair and say intel i7 is most futereproof than any other proc in the world. True.

     

    But, we aren't making servers or research lab equipment here, We're making a GAMING RIG and thts in budget.

     

    As I said earlier, AMD recovered from athlon x2 and phenom x2 , x4 flops, their phenom II series brought them back to a more than winning position in the midrange segment.

     

    At the price of a core 2 duo PII X3's and x4's outperformed their intel core 2 quad counterparts.

     

    So, tht clarifies why i chose to go for a completely AMD-ATI Rig....

     

    AMD-Will-Continue-With-the-Use-of-Ati-Logo-2.jpg

     

    Gentlemen meet...

     

    THE ROGUE

     

    The config....

     

    CPU :: AMD Phenom II X3 720 BE 2.8Ghz 6mb cache Rs7700

    Motherboard:: Asus M4a78t-E Am3 motherboard ATX 790gx Rs 9635

    Ram:: Patriot low latency edition PSD34G1333K 1333 Mhz DDR3 Rs 5000

    GPU:: ATI Radeon HD 4890 1gb DDR5 Rs 17000

    PSU:: Tagan Modular BZ600 600w Rs 6050

    Case:: NZXT Tempest Rs6000

    HDD +Dvd drive:: Rs 4000

     

    Total @ 55.5k approx

     

    So, @55.5k u can max out any game till-date and keep maxing out in future too

     

    Recommended peripherals::

    Samsung 2233sw Full HD 16:9 --10.5k

    Logitech G1 gaming desktop -- 1.5k

    Altec Lansing ATP3 speakers-- 4k

     

    Totals to 72.5k approx

     

    Cons of the system::

    -apparantly none...but price is more than mid-range .. prices in india are too high ..:(

     

    pros of the system::

    -As futureproof as the i7, coz AMD confirmed that the future am3+/am4 families along with am3, i7 and i5 killers will be compatible with the current am3 motherboard.

    -DDR3 ram -- fast and future proof

    -overclocks like hell.. thnx to AMD overdrive and ASUS OC features

    -GPU is also powerful

    -Lots of expandability

    -Case has top fan and lots of cooling

    -tricore has the advantages of both worlds ... affordable like dual cores and effective like quad-cores..

     

    Compared to its peers::

    -Beats both e8400 and Q8200 which fall in the same segment

     

     

    This is a totally balanced system so ..there wont be any bottleneck issues.

     

    U can hook up another GPU.. just make sure its ATI... 'coz theres no point in have=ing a gtx 275 running in a board with onboard ATI graphics and supports only crossfire..

     

    The least GPU I recommend is HD 4850 512mb

     

    This rig justifies the notion...

     

    Future is Fusion10052_Dragon_Platform.png

     

    Next time will post an intel alternative. :P

    checked up with a friend of mine fellas... he has same config ....

     

    he gets playable frames... @ 1152x864 2X AA highsettings on crysis with HD 4670 on 17" LCD

     

    also ... GTA 4

     

    so I guess u will still do better if u go for 9800gt 1gb

     

    edit:: this system (with 9800gt) gets 40fps+ in far cry 2 very high settings

    the ques is ... is there any 400w+ PSU in this world to fit in this cabinet?? book for scale...

     

    I luv this cabinet so much....

    I decided to add a G31 mobo+9600gt 1gb+2gb ram+400w PSU and give it to my 10yr old lil cousin....I dont want to send him a cheap I ball one instead.... :samui:

    The least expensive gaming pc u can ever build... ( rite now) @ around 25k

     

    Processor:: Intel E7400 2.8 GHz 3mb cache Rs 5675

    Motherboard:: Asus P5KPL AM IN microATX G31 Rs 2265

    Ram:: 2gb ddr2 800MHz Rs 1200

    PSU:: corsair 450w vx450 Rs 4000

    Dvd burner + HDD Rs3000 (pick the ones tht fit this budget -- u can do it)

    GPU :: sapphire HD 4670 1gb Rs 5550 or palit 9800gt 1gb Rs 7750

    case:: A good mini ATX case :: CM elite 330 Rs 2100( 330 is a mid ATX though --- isn't it?)

     

    If u take 9800gt Its 26k total

    If u take 4670 Its 24k total

     

    A 17" LCD will be around 5k ( 17" 'coz ur GPU freaks @higher res)

    Altec lansing 2.1 entry level speakers around 1k

    Logitech G1 gaming desktop @1.5k

     

    so totals to 33.5k

     

    I've seen 4670 give playable framerates in crysis gamer res(on youtube) but 9800gt gives waaaay better performance for the extra 2k..

     

    cons of the system::

    -mobo supports 4gb max ram

    -cpu bottlenecks if u upgrade GPU later

    -there is NO FUTURE though will run great for 2yrs minimum

    -micro ATX hinders expandability

     

    pros of the system::

    -the psu is pretty good one

    -can spend remaining money to buy games :P

     

    Suggested upgrades::

    -add another 2gb ram down the road (when u just cant do with 2gb)

    -CPU upgrade :: go for a good quad-core one when u upgrade your GPU.

    -A gigabyte p35 mobo (GA-P35-S3G) costs 4.5k i.e 2k more than the current one....but it eradicates the expandability problems since its an ATX mobo and can support upto 8gb ram and also supports 1066Mhz

     

    Aman and afty modify this to make it cheaper plz.....

    and also some suggestions.. :)

     

    edit:: prices from @www.theitwares.com ... I guess they charge upto 200 extra on almost everything.. so u can save upto 1.5k buying locally

    @akash ... newb?? so am I .....

    i7 is sooooo futureproof... but look at all the prices .. 16k for a proc .. 18k for a nice mobo... 15k for ram ('coz 6gb ddr3 is minimum up here)... + extras...

     

    while what does future proof actually mean?? 8yrs max...

    what are all u need to surviv for 8yrs down th rd..??

     

    ddr3 ... higher cpu supportable board....

     

    and the amd one i quoated has it all.... if u want benchmarks and all... wait till 13th

     

    why? 'coz I ditched my i7 project (2 weeks waste of time for me and aman....:O) and making this one

     

    and

     

    thx bro .. if it wasnt for ur call... i couldnt have found out tht there was a tricore proc....lol

     

    edit:: i7 920 can run almost all games and wont be bottleneck.. 'coz u have technology beating numbers here... but arguably i7 920 can be OCed to 3.2 on stock cooling... so 3.2Ghz is what u shud be looking at

    My comp. still makes a lot of noise i have cleaned the fans replaced my hdd but still it is making a sound like a truck(even my ps3 makes the same noise when kept in the room)(can the room be a problem??)

    check prices here www.theitwares.com ..

     

    u also have a case..? 'coz i didn't see one...

     

    ya .. quad-core will do or even tri-core amd am3 ones .. just make sure u have atleast 2.6Ghz speed and 6mb cache

     

    e8400 + p35 mobo if dual core

    X4 940 + 790gx am2+ mobo if quad-core

    x3 720 + 790gx am3 ( Asus M4a78t-e preferred) if tricore (since this is DDR3 and mobo is am3 u are safe for atleast 5-7 yrs)

     

    I prefer tricore one.. 'coz its FUTURE PROOF.... and tht's wht u want

     

    but I have to tell u... I was going for i7 ( even bought half the stuff.... ) but dropped 'coz its going insanely costly ( esp in india)...

     

    edit:: if u are choosing am3 proc ( like x3 720 or x4 955 ) make sure u go for a good native am3 board..

     

    'coz am2+ boards which are also am3 capable ... are deemed to bottleneck the proc

     

    edit:: All u have to know is tht games arent evolving as much as the hardware is... so even if u own a e7400 u'll do for a few years... esp if u are as dumb as me .. 'coz i enjoy gaming on my crappy p4 even though i get 10fps max :O ...
