My friend wants new computer where he can watch hd movies, browse and that usual stuff plus play games like crysis, gta4, cod etc.

AMD is preferable since intel machine wouldn't fit within budget.

Since i usually build my own machines i came up with this...but im exceeding budget by a couple of thousands :p

Components Description Price (INR)
Processor Processor AMD Athlonâ„¢ II X4 635 4850
Motherboard GA-MA74GMT-S2 2500
RAM Kingston 2GB 1333 DDR3 1750
HDD Seagate Barracuda 500 GB 7200.12 1800
GPU MSI 5670 1 GB GDDR5 5400
Monitor Dell IN 2020 20" Widescreen LED 6600
Cabinet Cooler Master Elite 310 Cabinet 1600
PSU/SMPS FSP SAGA II 350 1500
KeyBoard/Mouse Logitech Combo 700
Optical Drive LG GH22NS50 950
Speakers Logitech R-20 2.1 850
Total 28500
 
If your friend can extend his budget a little bit more, than go with Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H ~ 4.5k and FSP Saga II 400W ~ 1.9k

Otherwise, its a good suggestion.
 
-You could go with Dell 1720 ~ 5.5k (save like 800 bucks there )

-Go with X3 435 Rana ? ~ 3.5k (that should be enough)

-Get the zebby bijli / generic cabby -that'd be enough ~1k

-Now that you have like a reduced 25k in totals - you could save the money / use the $$$ on a decent Corsair CX400/FSP 400W + GTS450

This combo looks pretty inviting to be tho : http://www.primeabgb.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&category_id=180&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=2939&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=53

The combo + GTS450/ATi 5670 (7k) + 1720 17"(5.5) + KB+Mouse (.7) + Logitech R20 (.9) + ODD (.9) ~ 28k - That'd make a good picking too...

:cool2:

That should do a good job in total.
 
Motherboard GA-MA74GMT-S2 2500 instead M4A78LT-M LE 2750

GPU MSI 5670 1 GB GDDR5 5400 instead sapphire 5670 512mb 4600 or GTS450 from 7400 to 9300

PSU/SMPS FSP SAGA II 350 1500 instead FSP SAGA II 400W 1900

in 5670 512 mb or 1gb makes no diff.
 
Like someone else mentioned go in for the 880 chipset, the performance increase is noticeable. Other than that, I'm not sure how tight your budget is but the 5670 is not a very good card. Think about a 5770. In the future you could upgrade to a 5770CF which is real value for money. Also, FYI the monitor you picked is not full HD.
 
you can get AOC 22" at 6.8 in nehru place, i was there 2 months back ( cant say if the prices have gone up though )

also if you go to nehru place you can get CM320 its much better looking and cooling efficient compared to the 310. Bro bought it for 1.7K from Computer empire.

logitech K/M combo is surely ...510-550 there no more .

so as you are in delhi make a trip to NP , you can get good deals there.
