Okay folks! So here's my first post on such a forum ever.... and I'm from India... so
suppose the dollar equivalents may be a bit fudged up .... in short I'm building a
budget gaming rig minus the ATI 5850 (bl00dy xp rite now) which i will add after say 6
months.. as of now I have a couple of 7800 gtx (factory OC ) so i may end up using them
and invest in a 5850 l8tr this year.. !!
So he's a preliminary look at what I'm getting built in a few days time.. with
equivalent dollar rates (i think its abt Rs 46-> $ 1 )
My rough budget is about 30K , and thats abt 625 Dollar self assembled comp, minus the
gpu (using an old one..)
My aim: To rock some classics like crysis(not sooo enthusiastic, but what the heck)
,and to last atleast 3 years with minor upgrades
PSU: 650 extreme power plus -COOLERMASTER 4200 91$
CPU: choice of ATI phenom 2: 550BE or 720BE 4700 or 6250 102/
135$
MOBO: Biostar TA790GX A3+ Motherboard 6700 145/
or Msi 790GX-G65 mobo 7500 161/
or MSI 790FX-GD70 Motherboard 10500 228$
Ram: 2GB DDR3 (1333MHz) Kingston 1900 41/
OR 2GB DDR3 (1600MHz) OCZ 2700 59$
Hdd: Seagate 7200.12 500GB 2400
dvd-rw: Sony sumthing.. 1100 24$
GPU: 2x 7800 GTX factory OC lying sumwhere.. zero
Cabinet: 305 +1 extra fan(free,2 total, no more slots)-CM 1900 41$
LCD: AOC F22 /F22S --full HD(22"), 5ms, 30K CR, 300cd/m 8500 185$
Mouse: Razer Deathadder + Goliathus(a) mousepad zero
Audio card: Steelseries siberia external(~****) zero
Speakers: old Philips 10 W rms (da****) zero
sub total : 34,100(cheapest) 523$
Thoughts so far....
Love the idea of tesselation and all dx11 has to offer but since nVidia's fukc'd up...
expect nothing of them till march... and by oct the 5850 may becum affordable...... so
will do that then. I mean,the 4850 is about 7K now (roughly 145$) so yyyyy shld i pay
22K for the 5850 when i dnt have it -- rather invest in a good mobo and cpu and then
watch out for dx11 games, and when the market matures.
Okay, so my first post and really looking forward to all ur inputs...
Still figuring out what the word 'fusion' means...
