    Re: Wanna Buy a New PC ~30K - Plz help

    But most of the benchmarks showed AMD Athlon II X4 630 -- best processor

    ATI Radeaon HD 5750 - Best Graphics card.



    One more thing i m asked ... Props & cons of AMD & Intel ....



    becaz When i saw a lot of forums they suggest AMD ... but in real peoples told go for Intel. Wats behind all this?

    Buddy AFAIK ATI 5970 @ 40k is the Best Graphic Card..

    but as far as your budget is concerned it's hard to fit 5750 in it coz it'll cost you 9k..

    A II X4 is good for multitasking coz it has got more cores but as far as Gaming is concerned Core i3 beats A II X4..

    there are no Pros & Cons between them..

    both are good at their place..

    Intel itz been always choice of big spenders. AMD is good for short rum may be after 3 years it wont give u the performance it used to give . AMD offers cheaper prices that has an edge over INTEL. Now a days AMd has come up with great processors. In the end it becomes your choice to burn ur pocket. I insist on proper combination of motherboard & processor to get max performance.

    If you want to over clock go for Intel AMD is not good ...

    Finally i wud suggest for asus & intel combination

    AMD & gigabyte combination .. ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR PC...



    Intel i3-6k

    Intel DH55TC -5.6k

    Transcend value rams 2gb- 2.1k

    320gb samsung hdd 16mb buffer -1.8

    DELL -ST2010F(wide screen hdmi support+dvi) 20" -7.5k

    GPU- xfx 9600gt 5k

    cooler master extream 500w - 2.6k

    Zebrionics peace cabby- 0.8k

    LG writer 22x-1.1k

    keyboard mouse 0.9k

    Around 33k

    I am not really sure, what you are implying here, or trying to say. What you mean by this:

    AMD also has some expensive processors out there. See the BE editions, they are expensive. No product is expensive (specially hard ware) just for the heck of it. I am not a big spender, and have an Intel. Just right now, Intel is ahead on the band wagon, since AMD has not released a CPU refresh.

    Are processors cars or motorbikes..? You make it sound like that. Above you are saying that Intel is for big spenders, and here that AMD will not last. So what should the person buy...?

    AMD is offering cheaper units OK, but as above AMD will not last. So how exactly is a HOLE being burnt in ones pocket.

    This is the biggest load of bull I have ever read. There is no such thing as proper combination of mother board and CPU -- specially regarding manufacturer. It basically boils down to AMD or Intel CPU and the respective motherboard with the supporting chipset. Post that the buyer sees his budget, and what all features he wants (read multi GPU, IGP, external connectivity, OC capability). Both Intel and AMD chipsets can be OC'ed. ASUS and Intel = better, and AMD + Gigabyte = bad. How can you come to this conclusion. Both Asus and Gigabyte make darn good motherboards for the respective CPU companies.



    Read your posts using the 'preview post' option at the bottom. Check that they make sense, are logical, and answer the questions. Also check spellings. And I told you this before, stop using short forms and sms/twitter language. It is irritating to read and answer to. Thanks.

    Re: Wanna Buy a New PC ~30K - Plz help

    Pls suggest using one config with ATI Radeon HD 5750 and AMD Athlon II X4 630.



    another i5/i3 and nVidia .



    RAM must be - 4GB DDR3 only



    Motherboard would be upgraded to some others processors in future (2 years) also.

    Re: Wanna Buy a New PC ~30K - Plz help

    Dude, for ur budget, AND LONG RUN, a Athlon II X4 IS THE BEST choice.... I dunno how a person can quarrel over that



    My explanation:-



    Apps and games getting more multi-core optimised, Athlon II X4 is a quad-core, Core i3 is a dual, and no matter what, the two threads cant match the 4 REAL cores of the AMD procc



    Plus, the AMD DDR3 boards are cheaper, and OC friendly, whereas u get the INTEL DH55TC for 5.5k or so, which is so BS...



    If this quarrel wud have been over a COre i5 i750 and A Phenom II X4, I wud have completely backed the Core i5 using a similar explanation structure, so those big mouthed who might call me a FANBOI, i ask u to kindly turn ur volume down before u take the chance

    Re: Wanna Buy a New PC ~30K - Plz help

    For the 30K pricing, best bet is ATI Radeon HD 5750 and AMD Athlon II X4 630.



    Read this thread. Two experts have recommended great AMD combinations. Have a look, does it make sense. I think the GPU is missing in one of them, but that can be worked out.

    ^ Just Speaking frankly i don't know what you are upto man..

    you are demanding Athlon II X4 630 + 4 GIGS of DDR3 memory + 1TB HDD + ATI 5750 GPU in 30k which is not possible..

    be precise about what you want & your final budget coz you'll have to compromise on something..

    @ DUde buying PC



    Please extend ur budget, and u'll be able to fit in this rig very comfortably.



    Athlon II X3 425 2.7GHz @ 3.7k

    MSI 785GM-E51 @ 4.6k

    Transcend 4GB DDR3 1333MHz C9 @ 4.4k

    Cooler Master Elite 310 @ 1.5k

    Logitech Multimedia Keyboard/Mouse Combo @ 0.8k

    Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB @ 2.4k

    LG 22x DVD @ 1.1k

    BenQ 22" G2220 FULL HD LCD Monitor @ 8k

    Gigabyte 80 Plus Active PFC 460W @ 2.2k



    TOTAL = 28.7k



    Save about 30k, then u'll have enough money in hand. Then buy:-



    Sapphire HD5670 512MB GDDR5 @ 5.6k



    G.TOTAL = 34.3k



    The HD5670 as it performs near HD5750 for 3k lesser, and also when OCed, it almost ,matches HD5750....so it's completely VFM.

    check my previous posts.

    you can also do one thing just remove GPU from AMD Config that i've mentioned & buy it later on..

    Processor: Athlon II X4 635 (4 cores, 2.9GHz) - 5.15k -->www.deltapage.com

    Motherboard: Biostar mobo TA785G3 - 3.65k

    RAM: Kingston 2GB DDRIII 1333MHz - 2.2k --> Mediahome.in(TE dealer)

    GPU: Sapphire HD5670 512MB GDDR5 - 5.7k -->Mediahome.in(TE dealer)

    HDD: WD 500GB Blue AAKS 16MB buffer- 2.4k

    Cabinet: Zebronics Bijili - 1.1k

    SMPS: FSP SAGAII 350W - 1.6k -->Mediahome.in(TE dealer)

    Optical Drive: L.G. GH22NS30 SATA/Samsung SH-S22F SATA - 1.1k

    Speakers: Altec Lansing 2.1 BXR1121 - 1.1k

    Monitor: Dell 19" E1910IN - 6

    Keyboard+Mouse: Logitech Combo - .7k

    Total: 30.7k



    If on a tight budget go for the Athlon II X3 435 (3 cores, 2.9GHz) - 3.9k and save 1250rs./-



    This is the best possible balanced gaming rig one can get in your budget which is a bit future proof too with a 3/4 core processor, DDRIII memory and DX11 card.



    DDRIII prices will keep decreasing as it becomes more main stream. So you can add 2Gigs of RAM after a year for cheaper prices.
