Err.. Stalker, hw much is the 400w VIP gold priced at???

Oh seems good enuf at Rs. 1100/-

I doubt if those ppeps have changed the amperage rating in the +12v rails from 18A [IIRC].
 
instad of the Biostar Mobo get the Palit with the Nvidia chipset .. and u have almost saved enuf for a 9600GSO, more than 2X fster than the 8600GT.

Since u aren't gonna OC, you can do away without the P35 chipset.
