Hi,
Almost bought a PC in January but it never happened.But this time i'm sure its happening.This is a config which i found in a recent Thread...looks perfect:hap2:.Covers everything i need.
Config by Karthi007:
Processor: Athlon II X4 635 -5.15k
Motherboard: Biostar mobo TA785G3 - 3.65k
RAM: Corsair 2GB DDRIII 1333MHz - 2.75k
GPU: Sapphire HD5770 1GB GDDR5 - 10k
HDD: WD 500GB Blue AAKS 16MB buffer- 2.4k
Cabinet: NZXT Gamma - 1.8k
SMPS: Corsair VX450 - 4k
Optical Drive: Sony DVD R/W SATA - 1.1k
-->I'm using my roommates' 20-inch CRT monitor for now...
-->I use my pc only for gaming and graphics programming
Question:
>>Is there anything i can compromise on to fit in 2 more GB of RAM...maybe cheap out on the psu??becoz from what i've heard HD5770 consumes little power...
>>Is there an intel i3 config that can match this price and performance wise??
