| I would strongly suggest that u go for atleast 4GB RAM, a min of a 19" LCD(costs only 6.5k) and go for a 9500GT instead of 9600GT(save cash). Reasons: For graphic design, u need loads of RAM, i dont think graphic cards help that much. Save money by buying a 9500GT instead of a 9600GT(save approx 3k) See, if u can get a higher end processor, for video editing u need a processor with more cache. The E5200 has just 2MB of it. Or, try the following config: AMD Phenom 550 X2(3.1GHz,1MB L2 Cache,6MB L3 cache) Rs 6000 Biostar TA790GXB Motherboard : Rs 5000 4GB DDR2 800MHz RAM : Rs 3500 320GB SATA : Rs 2300 19" Benq/LG/Acer :Rs 6500 Optical drive: Rs 1100 Case W/PSU : Rs 2000 this comes up to approx 26k. This PC uses an ATI 3300 on board graphics card. Good enough for the types of games u have mentioned. Advantages: Processor is a lot faster than the E5200. Also, if u get Lucky, u can unlock the other cores and make it a QUAD CORE. The extra cache will help u. More RAM is good. Since we are using onboard video, no need to get a seperate PSU, use the one that comes with the case. Overall i feel this rig is gonna be better for ur needs. |

| u can go for any. The GXE has 128MB of onboard GDDR3 memory for ur onboard GPU. The Cheaper one is GXB, go for that imo. |
