Hi all,
I'm a newbie to the TE forum, has surely been an enriching experience following this forum for the last few days!!! I am trying to put together a jack-of-all-trades PC together, and was thinking of building it around the GA-78 Mobo, I have read around on the intarweb that Athlon X2 4850e seems to be the best running mate to the AMD 780 (atleast in terms on power consumption). By any chance is is available in India? Bangalore?? SP Road????
:eek:hyeah:

waiting for yer replies guys :)
 
Really bad that the 45W X2 chips are not here yet. :(

TDP-
X2 4850e- 45W
X2 4800 - 65W

I am totally undecided between the X2 5050e (just launched and a good $30 over the X2 4850e at $60 for just 100MHz more:() and the X2 5400+ BE. :p
And all this over some "power".
Saving some power with the 5050e vs unleashing the extra power of the 5400BE when need be. :p
 
He's looking for a "jack-of-all-trades" desktop. I don't think an Atom will quite cut it (unless the only thing he wants do is browse the internet and open Notepad and Paint).

The low power X2 are hard to come by in India. Try contacting Amarbir, he may have them in stock.
