Thread: 30K- suggest me a a CPU,HDD,MOBO,MONITER,RAM,PSU

Hi
I need to buy a desktop machine.

here is my requirement for INTEL ONLY machine

I Dont need a graphics card but would like to buy in future

i5/i7 CPU ~ Must be a QUAD Code, I am not sure if there is any from i5

Motherboard: Any good brand supporting above CPU and Good Nvidia Card which i will buy in next 2-3 months. Should HAVE ON-BOARD Graphics

RAM- 6-8 GB DDR3 supported by Motherboard

Power supply : A fantastic supply which can power my GPU which i will buy later on

HDD- 1-2 TB

Cabinet : A cool (not fancy) cabinet which wont make/absorb noise when machine is running under heavy loads of games

Monitor : any WIDE FULL HD moniter above 20' Inch

let me know if i can configure this in 30K or just around it.

I dont need keyboard, Speakers,mouse

the i5 760 is a quad, costs 10k approx. But the mobo does not have onboard graphics, in fact none of the motherboards i have seen that support i5 have onboard graphics...

For the same price, you can get a Hexa core Phenom 2...so think about it.

Time an again i have been saying this. 30k with a monitor a fantastic PSU and a nice cabinet and 6 GB DDR3 is not possible. i

But the mobo does not have onboard graphics, in fact none of the motherboards i have seen that support i5 have onboard graphics...

Can't rep...

Now lemme put the price perspective

i5 760 10k, 6GB DDR3 10k, HDD 3.1k
Monitor 20+ 9k Now your PSU (3K(CM or Corsair) 5k if fantastic(i.e. thermal take, silverstone, or Antec), Cabinet(3k) , Motherboard(5-6k) and graphics card(6-10k)( a must with 750/760) is of your budget i.e. by almost 15k to 20k.


You can cut down on RAM(4GB) save 3k still your short by a good 12k.

Since you seem to be an Intel fan, AMD route which could have helped you is not a option(if you wait there X6 1035t coming with a really nice price(expecting about Rs 8000!!!) )

and if you want go i7 860 route(has 4 cores, and integrated graphics but pricey) 14.2 k
ASUS and a ASUS P7P55 D(10.1k) and rest the same .(+6k to i5 setup!)

OK post a config from AMD too.. will consider it IF IT HAS NOT GOT HEATING issues like we had in past.

I am getting of people complaining about AMD heating problems. its a thing of past.

And don't compare the no.of cores. i5 750 easily beats 1055T in most applications, since you wanted integrated graphics at a affordable price. I suggested AMD.

the i5 you compared is similarly priced yet 1055t beats it in most benchmarks , very comfortably.

just take a look at this config http://www.indiabroadband.net/deskto...gaming-pc.html (Gaming PC)

AMD has no heating problems...and i5 670 is pricier than 1055T and still it beats i5 comfortably in multi threaded benchmarks.But you can go for a phenom 2 x4 945/955BE processor mobo setup that would come within your budget easily. Check other threads where i have posted some AMD configs

+1

It is only in multi threaded benchmarks where you really see the true potential of these chips, it is not fair to judge by seeing only a few benchmarks, until you will be using some specific software.

For cabby i will Suggest Cooler Master Elite 460..
Which cost at Rs2700 and its very cheap and best..
Has all the feature like Water Cooling Radiator holes, Bottom Mounting PSU, 2 top went fans.. Black interior and Transparent Side Window...

Am looking forward to buy one for me...

And for Monitor go with Samsung 20 inch..
it cost you about Rs6700... and they do best in service.. They do on site service...

I dono much about Intel and its MOBO, so the PRO Rajan will help you out in it bro...

for Motherboard, get ASUS branded motherboard, they give you some nice feature in nice budget...

thanks guys............

not good advice, Asus has nothing great, but their service is BAD, avoid it.
