Hi everybody,

I am planning to get a gaming computer and looking for the best configuration available. I am writing down the configuration that I made after some searching on the net. Let me tell you, I am not a techie , so not aware of compatibility issue .I want some expert to comment on the configuration.
comment could be shared on
1) compatibilty issues
2) changing any thing with other for better value for money.
3)If there is anything I am forgetting or better suggestions/improvements ..if you want me to know.

some important information before you comment
1) It should be less than 40,000 Rs ( though if you can give me some real blaster with small increment ,I don't mind)
2)I mostly play games like GTA,Oblivion,Strategy games on full resolution ( don't intend to run crysis, but if it runs its better:thumbup1: )
3) I am from Hyderabad so if anyone can suggest where to get these things cheap with reliabilty and comfort.

Please do comment....

As for a gaming configuration what everyone needs is a good graphic card and the graphic card that you have will def. serve you play games at high settings. But it is also necessary that one should have a good huge cabinet with atleast 550 Watts of power supply for its air flow or cooling and support respectively. Your graphic card will need a power connector from the psu so confirm it rather going for the psu and cabinet that you have listed. Other peripherals are good enough.

Hope that helps. :biggrin:

AMD Athlon X2 6000 is 3GHz and AMD Athlon X2 7750 is 2.7GHz but both give almost same performance. Also, 7750 overclocks better than 6000... and when 7750 is overclocked to 3GHz, the performance is same (or better) to 6000. Athlon 64 X2 7750+ 2.9GHz 3MB L2 cache Black Edition is available at around 3700/-. So you can go for this one to be more cost effective with compromise of very slight difference in performance.

Also, I will suggest, go for atleast 500 Watts SMPS since yours will be a gaming PC.

You will get,
Palit Radeon™ HD 4850 Sonic 512MB DDR3 Graphic Card at around 10200/-
and..
Seagate 500GB Hard Drive (32MB Buffer) at around 3200/-
Although little but some saving of bucks here :ohyeah:

Thanks nitesh ,unidentified and manish for reply. I would definitely implemetn your suggestion. If any of you can tell of some more improvement to get the best out of this system.
