Edit: Just ordered MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II 2GB DDR5 OC :)

I am building a video editing pc and have finally decided to buy MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II after recommendations from TE and watching all the video reviews on YouTube.

I am confused whether to go for 1 GB or 2GB.

I am going to buy from SMC Intl.

Price difference is only Rs.1,200.

TIA.
 
Decided to buy 2 GB card. My rig will have the following config except that I am putting in a 2 GB card. This config is suggested in the PC Buying Guide August 2011. I know prices have gone up but other than that I want some comments on the combination of components chosen...
Components Description Price (INR)
Processor Core i5 2400 9300
Motherboard Intel DH67BL(B3) 5100
RAM Corsair 4GB DDRIII 1333MHz 1350
HDD Seagate 1 TB 7200.12 2750
GPU MSI Nvidia N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II/OC 1GB GDDR5 (2GB!) 13750
Monitor Benq G2220HD 6900
Cabinet NZXT Gamma 2100
PSU Seasonic S12II 520w 4300
Total 49750
 
You won't be able to get all 1tb hdd at that price and many of the components will be hiked by 10%,everything looks fine,if you can stretch the budget little then get i5 2500k proccy,the current rig is great if you are locked up on it.

I am not looking to overclock. Moreover if I am going with i5 2500k then I cannot use Intel Mobo. It has H67 chipset which doesn't support overclocking.

I have updated the prices here: http://www.techenclave.com/pc-buyin...tion-high-end-video-199284-3.html#post1959450
 
2GB, as chirag mentioned. 1TB ~5.5K. Advantages of using the i5 2500K over 2400 are almost absent for you, so dont waste that money on the 2500K.
 
More VRAM benefits you specially in video editing purposes and rendering applications rather than gaming. It will make your work butter smooth. So 2GB is the way to go for :)
 
Paid Rs.16,400.

I have a little trouble taking it as damages. I really do not want to associate a good investment to a negative term. In my perspective, investment on great hardware will only help my business and in the long run can only do good to my wallet.

Sorry, I am one of those guys :P

Positive thinking, blah, blah. :D

Hard disk prices seem to be cooling off.
Better start buying your HDD now :P
the only grudge with MSI is their low credit value past EOL of your card. With nvidia i think that wont happen.
