Thread: Economical Gaming PC

For those of you who want to play high graphics games, but cannot spend too much money on your pc.


Processor :
Intel core 2 Quad/i3/i5.
These processors don't have much difference in performance, and all are good enough for gaming.




Price :

Core 2 Quad - 9000/-
Core i3 - 5500/-
Core i5 - 9500/-
(Approx.)

Motherboard :
For motherboard the best option is Intel DP55WG



Specifications
Chipset : Intel® P55 Express Chipset
Memory
Four 240-pin DDR3 SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets
Support for DDR3 1600+Σ1/1333/1066 MHz DIMMs
Support for up to 16 GBΣ2 of system memory
Expansion Capabilities
One PCI Express 2.0 x4 connector
Two PCI Express 2.0 x 1 connectors
Two PCI Conventional bus connectors

Price - 7500/-
(Approx.)

Graphic Card :

ATI Sapphire HD5770 GDDR-5


This is card is one of the best for avg. budget!.

Price :
1 GB - 9500/-
512 MB - 6500/-
(Approx.)

RAM :
4 Gb DDR 2/3, either one will do. DDR 3 is better, Latest and a little bit costly too.
Kingston RAMs are said to be pretty good,But you can go for any one that fits your budget...i.e. Kingston,Transcend,Dynet,Corsair,A-Data,Zion,GS Kill Rip Jaw....etc.

You will have to put a power supply(SMPS) of alteast 400-450 Watts.
Rest is just common stuff, HDD,Monitor,mouse,keyboard, Anything will do.

With this type of configuration, you won't be able to play high-end games at very high quality, but you will be able to play it in medium or high.

Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Good one. But personally I feel core i3 is not up to mark. In certain cases it's performance is lower than core 2 duo.

good one buddy,but do tell the PSU required, the total price would be around Rs40k which is not the most economical

the 5770 is not available in 512MB, dont miss lead ...

The ones mentioned sounds really good. Aside from these, you also need a high capacity HDD - whether internal and external. My husband is also into gaming and he go this Western Digital Caviar Black. Specs include 2 TB, SATA 3 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache, 7200 RPM. It has data life guard and shock guard din. Hope this helps.

AMD has their 6 Gb/s and USB3.0 motherboards and also 6core cpu...
I think we can build a better gaming Rig with AMD platform...

AMD are step a head and Intel follows them and Products as AMD does and sale it at a higher Price...

AMD was the 1st company to Build 64bit processor and now they have made 6-Physical core Processor...

nice thread skid

core i3 + Intel DP55WG = 5500+7500 =13000

much better
Phenome 2 X2 555BE + Gigabyte 785GMT-USB3 = 11000 [ i personally have this just 15 days old]

if u r lucky then u can unlock ur processor to Quadcore [thankly it worked for me]
