Planned PC Config.

A week before i was walking with some 300 bucks in my pocket, though it happens rarely - which makes me look around to make affordable things as essential things for me..My dad often advices me to be careful in distinguishing between 'just affordable' and 'essential' things. Luckily i am one among people for whom essential things are affordable. People used to love unessential things coz it is affordable, that day likewise i bought 'PC World' magazine for 60 bucks, could be 2 days lunch..though the magazine is available in online, reading of hardcopies are always preferred. Main reason i bought the book is - i am planning to assemble a PC, surely not now..waiting for Quads from AMD and Intel..yes, to go to Dual..Just Kidding..

I have been closely watching than ever before on the price slashes and the war between Intel and AMD.. I would prefer to put some 50K bucks to get a handsome pc.
The best Configuration for now seems to favor Intel Core 2..Here is the configuration I am thinking of..

Samsung 740 17" TFT monitor =10000
segate 250 gb Baracudda = 4000
ups m+tech 600 VA = 1800
tv tuner = 1500
mouse+keyboard(Microsoft) = 1000
Zebronics Antibiotic cabinet = 2000
1GB Tracend RAM = 4000
lite on shw-1635S dual dvd writer = 2200
total: 26500

So the balance is for Processor and Mobo..i am not planning for the Game card when I am going to assemble.. Now available things are:

intel core 2 duo e6300 = 9000
asus p5b deluxe = 10000

So the total comes 45500 for a pc. I decided to wait for the Intel mobo to come to the market, so that the processor and other mobo prices may decrease..so wats ur opinion..

  2. yes man..u r right..but it is the only one available in the market now.. also i got info like only ATI company has good graphics card in onboard, while if u want nvidia u have to go for seperate card..

    And one more info is if u get original intel mobo u can't overclock it, while asus and others are good for overclocking..

    There is going to be another price fall in october, better all should wait atleast upto diwali..

  3. Buy an original Intel m/b if you plan for a stable system without any Overclocking support. On the other hand if you plan to over clock your CPU ever, then you need to get an ASUS / Gigabyte m /b.
