Hey guys how much should i get for this rig. >>>> Processor:-Amd Athlon (tm) 3000+ (1.8Ghz) Motherboard:- Asus A8N-E (nvidia nForce 4 ultra chipset) GPU:- Nvidia GeForce 6200 TC (256mb) Ram:- 1.5GB HDD:- Seagate 360 GB Sata 2 (7200 rpm) Cabinet- i-ball + 400 W PSU of the same Monitor:-LG...

If only for gaming, watching HD movies etc, stick to present quad itself. Not a wise upgrade to core i-5. Invest the money in some bank and try to splash out the money later . Well its my opinion. if u want to go for it but atleast core i-7. :)

Thanks a lot.cheers mate. Expecting the nov-dec guide also :)

Bro, if u can state here your city name, may be the other members in TE can help u out. And i didnt notice anywhere in your initial post where u stated used cards are not preferable for u. Anyways, if are ready to extend your budget atleast by 1K, then 9500 GT ddr3 is another option. Just a...

the 8600 mentioned is GDDR3 and not GDDR2.

hmm for 2k, go for some used cards. May be ATI 4670 or nVidia 8600 GT. But make sure the card is still under warranty for atleast another 6 months.

ya buddy i7 860 might be performing near to i7 920. But 860 is not available here. So going for 920 now. thanks for the suggestions. :) Btwn, if i buy a 5870 in the future, wil 650 TX suffice the power requirements?

^^^thanks mate. That really helped me taking a decision. i ve decided to compromise on monitor and GPU for now. Will save some money and go for 58xxx series later.

I am really confused whether to go for P55 or X58 mobo. A really good P55 mobo would cost me around 10K or even higher and also X58 mobo, the MSI X58 PRO-E is around 11K i think plus it would be future proof i guess. :S Need more advice from experts here please.

thanx a lot comp@ddict :) But i would like to know,whether the corsair TX 650 would be enough if i am using 5850 in crossfire. And is i7 860 widely available in india now? And i7 920 has more bus speed than i7 860. Does that make a difference in rendering and multitasking? As i am a newbie...

oh and i might buy the GPU later if its not coming in my budget. And i will be selling d present rig ( + Creative Inspire 4.1 speakers + Epson CX 1500 which i forgot to include in d thread) and getting nearly 10K.
