Is this the best config for a 35k gaming and movie PC.? ( considering DDR3 compatible mobo and quad core processor a must.:) ( Keeping in mind that 35k is the absolute upper limit. Not a penny more !!!

Processor: Athlon II X4 620 - 5.3k

Mobo : Gigabyte 785GMT-UD2H - 5.9k

RAM: Transcend 2GB DDR3 1333MHz - 2.6k

GPU: ATI 4670 - 4k

This is 34K. Where can I invest the extra 1k ? any better GPU ? :) Cut down on MOBO and distribute/ invest on some other part?

I am buying a " entertainment PC" mainly for watching movies and occasionally playing games. Not the highest order in games but at the same more than basic games like EA cricket or Hitman 2. ( old games like far cry, far cry 2 or Max Payne 2 should run comfrtably on it.) and new games like assassin's creed or Dragon Age ( is it asking for too much ?

I have made up a config of My own based on advice from various kind people on this forum. Your inputs on this would be highly appreciated. My budget is 40k at the most and I plan to run windows 7.

Sorry dude. Have been having too many things on my mind. N the sudden budget constraint is another story in itself. ( comes from being a novice, i guess.) I saw another member's similar request for a budget gaming PC and have decide on the config provided by "Karthi07". Thanks a lot for your help too. And Karthi's config will go a bit beyond 35k but less than 40 and will do.

N sorry again for the confused and repeated pestering.

P.S: dont say me to carry it in handbag or etc.., coz its an illegal trade. So wont let anyone know about it.

Any trusted shop in pune where i can get vx450 for reasonable price.
Somewhere near Deccan is more preferable.
Dude , it is, to put it mildly, bad manners to start your own thread within another thread. You do have genuine queries but why don't you start a new thread of your own. It would get you more specific replies too.

I m a humble lay person with minimal tech knowledge and all I wanted to do was buy a assembled PC. But with so many recommendations pouring in from all sides, I am getting more and more confused.
My basic config so far is a
AMD X4 620
Biostar TA790GX A3+
transcend 2 gb RAM ( for starters.. in a month or two will add 2GB more)
SMPS: Gigabyte Superb 460W

now for the graphics card. Some people have suggested I go with the 4850 1GB coz it gives me more VRAM and some have suggested that the 4870 512MB coz it is more powerful. I have no clue which is better. ( I am not a hardcore gamer but would play games occasionally and would like to have some new games for e.g. dragon age : origins.)
So which one should i go for. pls suggest.

And please tell me the price of both the cards too.

If you think I am mentally deranged, I am not. Just that my budget has been see-saw and have a certain deadline that adds to the pressure. No point explaining nitty grittys and the peculiar circumstances here. budget finally rests at 35k. So i will be honoured if somebody actually gave me some answers about my query.

And thnks anubis. I am using ur config for pointers.
