Default Decent config?

Hello all

I am planning to buy a Desktop with this config. (Budget 45k max) Need some suggestions regarding the same:

# Proc - Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 / Q9300 / Q8400 / Q9300 / Q9550S / Q9400S / Q8200S / Q8400S / Q6600? 2.5GHz 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 95W Quad-Core Processor
# MoBo - GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard / ASUS P5Q SE PLUS LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard / ASUS P5Q Deluxe LGA 775 Intel P45 Intel Motherboard
# Memory - CORSAIR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory / Kingston 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
# Cabinet: Antec 300 / Cooler Master 690 / Cooler Master Elite 334 + Cooler Master Extreme Plus 460W (Combo)
# Power Supply: Cooler Master Silent Pro 600W / Corsair HX 620
# Display: BenQ 22" Full HD E2200HD 12k / Samsung 22" / LG 22" /
# Keyboard: Logitech 'Media' Keyboard .5k
# Hard Drive: Western Digital 10EACS 1TB 5.4k /
# Video: NVIDIA 9500 GT GDDR3 256 / ATI Radeon HD 4670

Please suggest a sound card too.

I guess a lot is lifted from these forums itself

I'll be buying this in bangalore. I expect the price to be around 45k or is this a bit too much? would be great if people who know the b'lore market can help me with where to buy etc.

Also, if u guys can fine tune this config a bit considering availability of the products and whatever other criteria there might be , it will be really great.

My primary purpose if for daily use...no big time gaming, music, movies and the like. So I wont be overclocking and stuff.

Thanks in advance!

Default Re: Decent config?

Intel E7400@6k
Gigabyte EG31M-S2@2.5k
Transcend 2x2GB DDR2 800MHz@2.2k
Seagate 500GB(or WD)@3k
Palit 9600GT 512MB GDDR3@5.2k
Samsung 2233@10K
DVD R/W@1.1k
Keyboard+Mouse@0.7K
Zebronics Bijili(w/o SMPS)@1.1K
CM 460W@2.4K
Altec Lansing BXR1121@1.2K
So for 35K u have a decent and a very powerful system... Why spend extra 5-10K when u dont want it for hardcore gaming... This config itself is great for regular gaming and movies... Just as a future proof as u have a good budget... Dont spend more than this for ur daily needs...

Good config, +1
Do have some changes to suggest.
Get G.skill Pi Black 2x2GB kit @CL4 instead of the transcend RAM.

Even though you're not serious about gaming, it will be done on a 22 inch screen, keeping that in mind, if possible, stretch your budget a bit to accomodate HD 4850(8k, in lieu of 9600GT) + Corsair VX450(4k, in lieu of the CM 460). I think it will still be well within your budget.

I would suggest you get a sound card later on. Use the onboard chip on the Giga G31 for now, you might be pleasantly surprised ..
Unless ofcourse, you have a very specific requirement, in which case, specify a budget...
