You seem to be quoting Online prices ..... They are cheaper in shops

@All
PS : Both the configs are overkill ..... A gaming Desktop that can run all games in max settings should cost you no more than 40-50k .... Dont Contradict me because i have seen it with my own eyes practically .....
I totally agree !! But the guy wanted to spend 60K, we just wanted to help him spend more !!
But y do u think the corei7 is like pentium d ??(in terms of eol).

Also, can some1 plz tell me if there will be difference in gaming while using DDR3 mem @1333Mhz(cas lat:9) Vs DDR2 mem @1066(cas lat:5) ?

Nothing you can discern from the Visuals . It ll show some difference in Benchmarks tho

and Loading times will increase [How much i cannot tell]

When the corei7 goes mainstream in India [may take about a year] .... The next processor based on the newer Sandy Bridge architecture will be released (expected around this time next year).


that does nt give corei7 much time does it ?
I mean in the Enthusiast category .... As newer architectures will give you more for less

Gigabyte X58 DS4 - 14k
Transcend 3GB DDR3 - 8k
Dell LCD / Benq LCD 22" : 12k
Palit HD4850 - 9k
SAMSUNG DVD/RW - 1.2k
CoolerMaster 500W - 2.8k
CoolerMaster Elite 330 - 2k
Logitech Wireless Desktop - 1.5k

Total : 65,500
Info abt The DS4 and DS5:

There have been many cases of the board not recognizing many brands of ddr3 1333 memory. So plz make sure b4 u buy it. Cheapest ddr3 costs 8k. So it could be a significant loss.

well...that was a bit offensive....i guess it's just personal choice, alienware is damn way too inflated, just compare it with some others like the mage series or other options, similar performance, half the price, or just google alienware bad/sucks/worthl;ess etc on google and you'll get more. Also i think you've already figureed out i like custom rigs soo... there are my 2 cents

I totally agree ....if u have a lot of money u should still mod ur pc ..... Apart from being cheaper it can even look better

Alienware use the same standard parts of Nvidia ,Intel ,AMD/ATI so performance wise they dont have any advantage ......
U may claim that Alienware looks better ......But i would like to Contest that claim

I mean u can use use stuff like
Neon Fans of Different colors [~ rs 200]
Neon Water cooling systems
External cabinet LED display etc etc

These u cant get with any Alienware PCs .... I regularly get adverts about New Alienware Desktops/notebooks from Alienware ,i have checked them all

first of all it cant be replicated very easily,not the quality atleast..
secondly, all the modifications mentiones above have to be done sepaately.when i am getting all the things at one place,why should i go for aftermarket modifications...

Time for an offtopic discussion

what exactly do you mean by "Quality" here ......

and by the way

The discussion is not really offtopic ..... So dont report this post

By offtopic i meant something else which if u did not understand was nt meant to be understood by u

i dont think a new thread is required ......

Just buy a zebronics Anti-biotic cabinet ....and then install some some neon fans [cost around 2000].... this is what i did to my current PC ..... Looks very good

Anti-biotic has its own neon lights and displays


But more can be done .... i am no expert in case modding only seen it

Dude i hate the look of that rig.

I was thinking of modding a case like this one:

Newegg.com - Thermaltake ArmorPlus(Armor+) VH6000BWS Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Computer Cases

Thats the cheapest Neon lites cabinet you can get ... it looks much better close up ... but thats not the only one !

U can get cabinets that cost as much as 20,000 rs ... They look way better than any Alienware CPU cabinet can ever look ... Also remember that Alienware dont have variety ...... Whatever u buy there will be hundred others with exactly the same looking cabinet

u cant mod ur Alienware cabi unlike stock ones
