Ok I am living hapily for above 5yrs with my HCL PeeCee till last week my PSU Was blown out So I Made my Mind and pocket for An upgarde :P but this time i not go for branded bcse of costlier High end Choices So i Go for DIY (do It Yourself) One So I Want little help from the guys there to made my final decision So plz rate (Out Of 5) My present Config & have any suggestion For Me plz post it i just want the things that deserve every penny...

So after getting some GYAN of todays Trends
I currently stop with this config

Mobo - Asus P5k Premuim Wi-Fi - AP

Processor - Intel Quad - Q9450

Graphic Card - 9600 GT (Plz suggest branding 4 That One)

Ram - 4 Gb transcend

Audo - creative T6060 - X-Fi Pro series Card

Chesis - Nzxt lexa blackline Blue

HD - 500Gb Seagate

TV tuner - Help Regarded

Mon - already Have One Samsung 19"

------------------------------------------Thanks In Advance
 
For 9600gt u can buy MSI,asus or XFX and instead of the nzxt cabinet u can go in for a cooler master or antec cabby they are far more better than nzxt cabinet if build quality is to be concerned and TV tuner u can buy pinnacle or hauppauge
 
Audo - creative T6060 - X-Fi Pro series Card

what's your budget for sound , what do you plan to use it for ?

the above mentioned is a heavily unbalanced combo, except maybe for gaming

Yaa thats true:ohyeah: Sorry i forgot To Mention I already Had T6060 Just Want buy the Card i pass the Spk Upgrade For 2 mnts Since i Got enough to Do So.....

@ Amit Can U plz tell around 6k budget models of that brands i also prefer cooler master but i don't get the right choice in above budget..

10x for the quick help guys i just got that P35 One Doesn't Support PCI 2.0
and mostly the cards ( Audio , Graphic , Tuner ) i seen are of PCI 2.0 did these Cards Compatible with PCI 1.1 Slots ??
 
adding a card wont improve the sound quality much. If you want sound quality to improve, get a decent pair of 2.1's like the MX 5021's for the fronts, ,and use the 5.1 you have for surround + center + sub duties :D
 
@ greenhorn as I said I was Planing To Buy A High watt 5.1 Setup in near future

So I want To prepare my PC for it thus i opt for X-fi series

@ vivek thanks for ur comment likely 8800 GT is Now Going To be over by 9800's anybody know the street prices of that one

also which chipset is better x38 or p35...(4 Overclocking and Performannce)
 
For mother board skip p5k premium ... ABit IP53 Pro (9.5k) is better and cheaper ( if u want p35 chipset ) .

IF x38 chipset then go with IX38 from abit (11 k) or Asus Maximus formula ( 15.5k) which is slightly better.

Get 8800 GT ( only 2- 3 k more exp than 9600gt) ... but worth it .
 
if you plan to get something which connects digitally, its best to dump the creative, since it doesnt do DD live encoding.

An auzen/ xonar card is a better bet :)
