Guys my brother in Mumbai is buying a new pc, and I am trying to help him as much as I can from over here..
I had mailed mnemonic, prime and mahavir electronics for price quotes for the rig I had in mind. Yesterday Anish from Mnemonic mailed me back and offered the following prices..
Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 = 4950/-
Asus P5N-E sli = 7450/-
2*1gb Kingston Value ram - 667 mhz = 1950/-(sure he meant for each stick :O)
hitachi/Seagate 160 gb sata2 hdd with 8mb buffer = 2350/-
Cooler Master Extreme power 600 w psu = 3750/-
Chieftec BH-02-B-B-B cabinet = 3750/-
LG H42N dvd-rw = we have H44 N = 1500/-
Besides this, I had asked him for the prices of Samsung 740N and Palit 1950gt/pro and he said that the prices will be available tomorrow.
So what do you think of these prices? are they ok or off the mark? and if they are..what should be the good prices?:huh:
Well when the final purchase would be made, of course there would be some burgainig, but I would like to know how much to burgain..
Also, do you think there is any sub 9k good 17" lcd that has dvi input? i know this one doesnt..but I dont know what is available at Mumbai.
I also had AMD in mind..but only if I found the Biostar motherboard. Can anyone tell me where it is available?
And lastly..his budget is max 45k.
Thanx for ur help..:hap2:
