Server Cabinet 7850/-

Which cabinet is that? Whatever it is, its not required. If you want a big spacious cabinet, the VIP zb01 is for around 4K. If you want something better looking, the antec super lanboy is for around 5.5-6K.

Theres a antec P180, and a TT XaserIII for sale in the market section. Check those out too.
 
Buy any one of these -
1) Antec P180 Cabinet = Rs. 8,850.
2) Antec TX1088AMG Cabinet = Rs. 10,400.
3) Cooler Master CM Stacker 810 (RC-810) Black Cabinet = Rs. 10,500.
4) Cooler Master CM Stacker 830 (RC-830) Cabinet = Rs. 15,500.
 
funky told me the other day that the p160 is around 5k. so i suggest u get that & get a decent psu for around 2-3k. get p160 over the superlanboy.
 
And get an Antec TP2.0 550W or a Zebby 540Watts. The Zebronics is actually a rebranded Skyhawk.

Dont get confused with the cheap made in India Zebby 500 watts

Antec P160 Cabinet costs between Rs. 6500 & 7500 & Antec Super Lanboy Cabinet costs Rs. 4750.
 
The SuperLanboy is actually pretty spacious and very easy to work with ( As far as I'm concerned. Don't ask Funky though :bleh: )
 
If I put a 7800GT to a New system(SLI),I waana build,& currently dont use the option of SLI,by putting another 7800GT,CAN I USE A POWERSAFE 500Watts SMPS as the PSU??

Question is of MUCH IMPORTANCE & want genuine answers!
 
Nope. No way. If that's the case, get an Antec or the Zebronics 640W which Funky got for 5.5K. Its an OEM Skyhawk PowerOne - Rock solid.

if i say replace the 7800GT with a lower crib 6800GT,would not also then "MY PLAN" be successful with the PS500W PSU?

The 6800GT has become obsolete the new face in town is the 6800GS.
 
ya freaky thats what is written everywhere but isnt true.

i have tried this & the 6800gt was working with a certain psu & then the 7800gt was giving probs on the same one. had to remove 1 hdd for the 78 to work.
 
good that u folks shared my concern!

BTW,the system i'm planning has already xcceded my budget of 1,00,000(INR)

so was considering a VFM PSU like the PS 500W (out of budget constraints),for putting into a SLI system(currently not in SLI-mode) with a single 6800GT or a 7800Gt at best.

I was actually thinking for a G-Series VIP cab with a PS 500W PSU(totalling a Max of 5,000 INR),but now since i reckon the SINGLE 7800GT or even the SINGLE 6800GT quite a POWER Drinker,& with a Antec TP-2.0 550W SLI Ready PSU,(here costing above 7.5K & x'tra for the cabby),I may be OUT OF BUDGET already!

So,is it imperative now,IF I GO FOR A SLI RIG(IN NON-SLI MODE,with single 6800gt or a 7800gt),I GO Only & ONLY WITH A BS Antec 550 PSU OR ELSE,I STOP FANCYING THE SLI RIG?// with even a PS 500W PSU//

((PS- the PS 500W PSU is just the STOP GAP arrangement which i was contemplating for a single gfx PCI-E card in the SLI-Ready board,only to be latter upgraded by a Full Antec SLI-Ready 550W PSU,when in full SLI-MODE with the double whammy!))

NOW,AM I JUSTIFYBLY WRONG IN MY PLANS??????
