DDR3 is definitely recommended now. It also helps if you want/need to add more RAM later, as DDR2 availability will low eventually and prices maybe much higher than DDR3 then. Do take a look at the ASUS M4A88T-M; approx Rs.4800/- on deltapage iirc. This was announced sometime back...

From what i understand, EPU (Energy Processing Unit) provides total system power management in real time. TPU (TurboV Processing Unit) auto-accelerates the system to optimised and stable settings without accupying cpu resources. These are co-processors dedicated to their respective duties...

Sabertooth X58 also has 5 years warranty. :) Here is a nice review- ASUS TUF Sabertooth X58 review

ASUS 4670 1GB DDR3 - 4K or less FSP SAGA II 350 - 1.5K (strictly okish only if you are not upgrading anything else)

Re: Please help me out last question for this season, hope so about system starting w Do you have an Intel motherboard? The CPU fan spinning for few seconds after power from mains/walls socket is turned ON is a common thing iirc.

I had read about this issue on TE itself, especially in the budget TN panel LCDs available some years back. IIRC, Eazy sir, a very senior and respected member here, had posted his observations and some precautions to avoid that. I don't remember much now but using the test for repeating...

Thank you for that info desecrator. Like i have mentioned elsewhere, that really nice of Redbeard. I couldn't agree more on everything you say. :) I also agree on the decline part but maybe the CX400 has been more consistent with its quality compared t the VX450, as it began its innings as a...

Where are you from? I use a Apical SATA case (w/o the case) for checking/backing up lappy HDDs- works fine for me on single USB cable. Costed me Rs.300/- odd from Prime ABGB, Mumbai and i feel it has worked better than the Transcend ones me or my friends have had. :) APICAL TS 250S-U ( Ultra...

How is it easy to maintain or reduce heat? :S 2x sticks of 2GB, each rated at 1.5V will mostly draw less power than 4x sticks of 1Gb rated at 1.5v each i feel. I didn't understand this. :ashamed: Usually 2x2GB performs better, especially when OCing. 4x1GB will run at 2T and 2x2GB will run...

Why not? :) I may not know much on this but i will try to explain. I hope some gurus can correct me where i falter and help us understand better. Cold cathode - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A CCFL needs some sort of complex high-voltage power source with some mechanism for...

^ Thanks guys. I have dropped the X2 555 plan as the new batches mostly don't unlock i have heard. Plus since there is no unlocking or OCing to be done, the i3 530 becomes the choice by default on the basis of preference, price, power consumption. Now checking if i can find some good but...

Under 30-35K, we cannot fit new i7 rig. AMD X6 1055T is great VFM anyways imho in that budget. Your AMD config looks fine. The user feedback on Newegg and reviews for the Pro/USB3 model looked good- so get the USB3 one preferably. Get the XMS3 1600 kit preferably, comes with SPD data for...

If you replied what you have, after what i had already posted, it indicates you have either not read (/read carefully) or not understood what i said and why i said so. Say VX450 is the most practical buy for someone. Can you deny there will some who will add that CX400 is ok too. Then there...

Why do you need 4x1GB and not 2x2GB? :S And best but best in what?

^ No probs. I didn' get offended at all to begin with. I did read that you had a tight budget and that's why you were trying to save even a few hundred bucks. But that could have majorly compromised on the quality ofthe PSU you bought. All i wanted to convey was- That though the VX450 may...

If Intel only and buying an i7 950, please do check out the Sabertooth X58 motherboard. :) http://www.techenclave.com/cpu-mobo-corner/suggest-mobo-upto-15k-175252.html Corsair XMS3 but the 1600 kit. Give the 1333 kit a royal ignore. :P Drop the TX750- get the HX750. TX750 is a bit too dated...

Did anyone mention 'VX550 FTW' yet? :gap: You may also buy something better/higher if you want. :)

Thank God this is not for PSU. :) For once, if i can say that something iball is good, then the Laser speedster and the speedster mini were pretty decent meeces. :ashamed:

Honesty is the best policy- so said someone. I like that- good going Redbeard/Corsair. :hap2: GTX 260 = 2x PCIe connectors? check my sig- overheard in some village school from some remote part of India. :P
