Depends on whether you are ready to wait or not. It would be faster than the GTX but you will have to wait for some time. So decide whats the top priority, the gtx is good as well only you wud be missing out on avivo, and some major IQ enhancements.
 
Everybody's suggesting PC's with different configs........... but no ones suggesting place from where to buy?

Even i am looking to Buy a PC but i am confused? Suggest me goood store in Mumbai ( near to Borivali) where i can get the AMD as well as Intel processors, the place where the store person suggests me good value at reasonable prices?
 
There is mnemonic system in the Roshan nagar, near bunty juice centre.

A very reliable dealer with really good service.

He charges little extra on some stuff but its worth buying from him for his service and for the simple reason of locality. if you stay in borivali and tomorrow something goes wrong you will have to go all the way to city for replacement 2-3 times. you will be spending some money and valuable time for the same. So its better pay little extra and get stuff from here.

He is AMD dealer and wont sell pentiums unless you stress on it ;) He will suggest only AMD systems :P ( Odd these days :D )

Has wide variety of hardware to choose from. Low end to high end.

dunno..Funky told me there are 2 kinds....hmmm..

i asked him if ucc was written on it and he said no..

wat2do..

cpu n mobo shud be here too..just psu n grafix card n ram left..but psu n grafix card r available i just need to order
 
Dude go for the 7800GTX n try get out of the box overclocked XFX 7800GTX, I don't think, correct me if Im wrong, that the performance between the GTX and X1800 XT (512Mb version) is all that much in games. I don't think its worth the wait plus you need to wonder about availability especially in India. If its in short supply in the States then I doubt you'll get one here that soon. And even if you could get someone to get you one from there, here you could get a GTX yourself without too much trouble I suppose.

Jst another question, wont the ram thats being sold in the Market(OCZ 4800 platinum) section be good for this rig? Or is the TWINMOS much faster n cheaper?
 
yes man im getting the 7800gtx itself..31000bux..ordering it and truepower eps 2 550w today itself

was waiting for prices to fall...but its abt time..enuff waiting..mobo n cpu be here on wednesday.cabby shud be here any moment.just waiting for the ram..cant decide wat to get..heh

1. The OCZ RAM would need much more volts than what the SLI Premium can provide.

2. He wants 1GB x 2 sticks. What Funky has on Sale is 512MB x 2 .
 
hey guysfinally built my new system.tho using a 450w psu rite now..so grafix card not getting enuff power..will get antec 2.0 550w 2mrw hopefully dat will do it.else dual psus..

my normal temps (without ac) are 35c for cpu and 34c for mobo..with ac around 32c for cpu n 31c for mobo..is this good enough?

havnt installed all the fans in the stacker..it supports 8fans..will install 1 or 2 more wen i get psu..

twinmos ram also i dont have..using transcend pc266 1gb ram :S
 
I am feeling so miserable not chking this thread earlier!!:(
Maybe i could hav helped with prices at least as i hav spent more than wot i could have saved, on phone/ net/ travelling to chk out prods and best deals, but its a diff trip altogether and thats how silly i am!!:P
Muttster- please post prices of stuff purchased and the dealer/s!!
TP2.0 550 @prime was 7450/- all incl last week!!
Was quoted 10,500/- for SLi premium a month back, that too by a dealer who i think overcharges quite a bit if you r not aware of cheapest deals available!! Should be cheaper for you now!!
Most dealers r that way, make a quick buck out of someone's ignorance!!:@
And there is onething that you definitely need to clarify!! please!!
Why r u still stuck with a 17" monitor dude???????????:huh:
You said you watch movies/TV, do a litlle bit of gaming which you say will be BOOSTED soon, i definitely feel you should upgrade your monitor to a 19"CRT capable of 1600x1200@75hz at least, if not 17" LCD a 21" CRT!!!!!!!!!!!
Ask any of my GURUS here and i am sure they will agree with me!!
I seriously wonder why no one pointed that out or hav i overlooked the fact that U own one already!!:ashamed:
Even i was confused with cabby, will wait 6 months for a good one- went for a budget cabby!!
And i have heard very highly of ATi R520, wotever in local parlance, but is it SLI capable?????????
it all depends on whether you go for DFI SLI or ULTRA!! though i read in some thread abt converting ULTRA D or something into SLI!!
I personally prefer one top of the line GPU than TWO in SLi as i heard most of these r overkill!! please enlighten me my dearest GURUS as i am not sure of this!!:huh:
And do you hav a DVD writer?
ok, gotta go now!! all the best!!:hap2:
take care!!
Yours sincerely,
BIKEY.

xfx 7800gtx 31000/-
every1 overcharges..:( i got quotes from4-5dealers n these r the cheapest i got so i purchased)....
dvd writer/reader is sony dru-720a....

i thought 17" lcd was gud enuff for gaming/watching tv shows..since the formats mostly xvid..(dvd size is too big to d/l..)

thx for ur input..very appreciated :)

my system running at 32c for processor and 31c for mobo..is this good? (without load..)
edit: which ram do i get? cant find twinmos with ucc chips..anything better than ddr400?
thx :)

ATi has come up with its own technology "Crossfire" that lets you run ATi X1800 (R520) cards in SLI.

The DFI SLI is an nVidia based board, and will support only nVidia cards in SLI. For the ATi cards to be SLI-ed, you'd need an ATi Crossfire based motherboard.
