@boscode,

No offense meant but at your position, you should just mention your budget and take the suggestion whatever the maximum members make. You seem to be outdated. :)

i am not having information about what mb or gb is ati 4870??

but i think if 1 card of ati 4870 is for 6k its better to buy 2 cards of nvidia 1 gb each. :S

my new research

intel i7 920 processor + dx58 so motherboard sli compatible and crossfire compatible whichare for 27990/-

250 gb hdd which is 2100/-

2 2gb rams ddr 3 are for 3780/-

2 nvidia gforce 9500 1 gb ddr3 cards are for 8580/-

psu 3000/-

cabinet 1000/-

total is 46450/- in which i am getting both sli and i 7. what do you think? is it worth purchasing?
 
^^What an unbalanced rig.. It is advisable to use triple channel with i7 as it has been optimized for the same, ofcourse you are free to use dual and single channel as well.

Try getting 1gb X3 DDR3 Triple channel kit.

so 2 nvidia 1gb for 8k .. Should be something like 2 9500GT :| Huh. Better get a single GTS250 :P , ohh and don't expect 1gb 9500 GT to even perform better than 512mb alternative. Even 512Mb is too much for a low power card like 9500Gt :lol:

and you want to put SLI and such a power hungry system on just CX400 ? :S

In 40k better off with Phenom II.. That rig is badly configured.

Sorry dude my bad i have xbox 360 psp so m not at all aware of pc graphic card sorry for acting stupid but please tell me what is 1gb X3 DDR3 Triple channel kit.? u mean i shud go for gts 250 512 mb how much it is for no information is available :( and also price of gts 250 1gb card will increase budget accordingly.
 
^^If you have such a good console whats the need of buying a multi graphics solution. A mid end/high end card should suffice the need.

Phenom II X3 720 - ~7.5k

Biostar T790GXB - 4.5k

nvidia GTS 250 or ATI HD 4770 or ATI HD 4850 (4770 recommended) ~7.5k max if you consider GTS250 , else ATI counterpart will set you back by ~7k

4GB DDR2 1066 Gskill GBPK ~5k

Seasonic 380W or Corsair VX450 ~3.8k

Antec 300 ~3.4k

HDD = 1TB WD Green

All this you get under 37k when you buy GTS 250, price will be lower if you opt for ATI HD 4770|4850. With the saved money you can but a good cooler and OC the system. For gaming rig processor won't make huge difference but no doubt i7 is the best you can get if you have budget like ~70k
 
*facepalm*

+1. Let's think of getting acquainted later!
 
Okay bro, lets get some things out of the way first:-

1)Do your research properly and find out for yourself what level of performance you want. Do not get things just for the heck of it.
2)Read announcments/sticky topics.
3)Get someone to help you out with the posts. Most people here are quite tolerant to spelling/grammatical errors, but in this case understanding your posts is a problem, so it's best to get rid of that communication gap.
4)If you are convinced about what you want, just buy it. Decide for yourself whether you want to take advice or not.

A few cliff notes that im willing to make for you(and im going to be a bit sarcastic for my troubles :) ):-

*A core i7 config is both beyond your budget and requirement.
*Memory size on the Graphics card does not mean anything if not taken into the picture along with the speed of the memory and the bus size. Eg., A 512MB GDDR3 card will outperform a 1GB DDR2 card 99 out of 100 times.
*i7 with 9500GT(s) is like a Ferrari Enzo with solid, wooden wheels from a bullock cart.
*SLi is pointless 9 times out of 10, and only worth it when you can already purchase the most powerful single card money can buy, (i.e. GTX 285?).
*Avoid CM Extreme Power 600W and buy some fireworks instead if you enjoy watching stuff blow up.
*AMD is not an evil company made by Bill Gate's alter ego. BSODs are exclusive to AMD in the same way viewing lesbian porn on the internet is exclusive to females.

Bottomline: Go with Dark Star's suggestion w/o asking questions. :P

Edit:- If I ever run out of realistic comparison in case to make one understand something, I will sure call you. :)

Just a few changes i wld like to make :

For RAM, He should Go for Corsair XMS2 4 GB kit for 3.1k as 1066 Mhz dsnt give any significant performance gain over 800 Mhz Specially in AMD systems where lower timings are more efficient (Due to Integrated Memory Controller).

And with the remaining money + 7.5 k for GPU, instead of GTS250/4770, he should get a HD 4890 as he has a full HD screen (GTS 250/4770 are just not enough for gaming at 1920 x 1080).

Hope it helps.

Just asking, what are the default timings on the XMS2 2x2GB kit? Im not sure i remember correctly, but AMD systems seemed to gain more benefit from higher clocked RAM as compared to Intel systems, i could be wrong though.

Also, the HD 4890 will be a good choice, however:-
*I'd rather not put anything more than a HD 4870/GTX 260 on a VX450, even though i know it can handle it.
*His maximum budget is 41k AFAIK.

@sabby
Thank you for the compliments sir :P
 
@Amien,

The default timing of my xms2 2GB is 4-4-4-13 @270MHz and 5-5-5-18 @400MHz. :) 4890 is definitely a better option than a 4870. But I doubt if that would fit his budget.

Sweet, thanks, that's what i was looking for.
Almost every 1066 Mhz kit out there is CL5, so the question of better timings doesn't arise.
1066 Mhz @ CL5 is obviously better than 800Mhz @ CL5.
You could go for Pi Blacks that do 800 Mhz @ CL4 with 1.8v, but you're better of with 1066Mhz @ CL5 for that sort of money (3.5k approx. locally)
