no harry, i am not a millionaire, btw to get this config i should have been one !!!
i am cutting down on all other "luxury" to meet this budget!
Was a joke sir , not to be taken seriously . Many here compromise on many things to get a good PC . Am being told by friends in this budget I can get a huge android phone , a decent laptop , and still save some money . And frankly for generally it does make sense , many sensible buys can be made for one single thing but ....
First I also thought about paying more for the mobo and cpu . According to my current config in mind , 3570 k + maximus v = 30+ k .
One thinking came in my mind was go for a 3770k and got for a asrock z77 .
But then think of it as things , motherboard is mother board for a reason , you connect everything to it .
It delivers clean power to the CPU , etc . Also in case one day you need good audio , consider u got asrock z77 , then you will add a sound card and stuff . Add more money to that .
Better motherboard has more overclocking potential . Better motherboard can help you identiy errors in your hardware which might otherwise take hours for an untrained person .
Here am comparing asrock z77 extreme4 to asus v gene .
Asus v Gene has one of the best onboard audio specially if you are a gamer or see bluray . I was really impressed with the audio in this board . Awesome is the word . See reviews .
Intel lan port which is one of the best out there , others have some other chipsets .
The greatest thing is asus gene has a lot of community and company support .
If you want a cheaper alternative , go for the Gigabyte G1 Sniper M3 , its a good motherboard , priced very very nicely .
Just that if you will go for a crossfire or an sli in future , dont go for it . Otherwise for a single GPU setup , its an awesome motherboard for its price .
Abroad its price the same asus v gene . Here it is available for 11k and v gene for more .
4-5 k difference here , while again abroad its the same .
Do have a look at it once , you will surely choose it over the asrock z77 e4 which most people are going for I dont understand why when you spend 500 bucks more and get a much much better board .
May be they dont know it is available here . This board has a nice audio chip and intel lan and what not .
If I did have an sli in mind , which now I think isnt that sensible sometimes , better to buy another card in 3-4 years then go for a sli .
But still I like that gene mobo . So I made a compromise on the cpu , ditched the i7 and got the i5 . Who knows I ll regret it later , when more cores come out and games use more cores , that hyperthreading might come into use . But what the heck , dekha jayega , i5 is no cry baby , lol .
Wait sometime , hopefully the 7850 will get price cuts , the hd 4000 has good graphics for basic gaming , so manage with it for sometime . Now this is wishful thinking , not sure the dealers her e would implement the price cut . But this is an awesome card in its own right , have seen many reviews , beautiful card .
Best of luck .
,Nice config.
