Gaming CPU

VenkiP4 · 03-06-2009, 06:25 PM

Hi all,
Pls help me in building CPU for gaming...(Monitor, KB, mouse, speakers, External soundcard and harddisk not required as I have them).
Budget is 20,000 to 30,000 rupees.
All components can be cheap and easily upgradable....
Should be able to play GTA4 at maximum settings....

Thanks...

forget it.

Not possible

a gaming Rig at 20~30k is not possible

you can get an entry level at 30k

desiibond · 04-06-2009, 09:14 AM

@VenkiP4, wait for Athlon X2 250 and Phenom II X2 550. If it is urgent, try this

CPU: Phenom II X3 710: 7.2k-7.5k
Mobo: Gigabyte MA78GM-US2H or Gigabyte MA78GM-S2HP or ASUS 780G based board: 4.5k-5k or Jetway HA-07 Ultra for 6k (crossfire enabled)
RAM: Corsair XMS2 (comes with nice heatsink) 2x2GB DDR2 800MHz: 3k
GPU: Palit GTX260 SP216 Sonic 896MB or Palit HD4870 1GB: 11.5k-12k
PSU: Corsair VX550W: 5.5k-6k

What about Cooler Master Elite 330 for cabinet? costs around 1.8k

VenkiP4 · 04-06-2009, 06:49 PM

Yep good.....cant we have cheapest MB & processor & Gfx card...

Techn0crat · 04-06-2009, 07:38 PM

Depends on where you are buying.
If you are living in mumbai,go to lamington road and buy components yourself.It will be much cheaper.You can get more bang for same money.
@ayuboy

lease,Entry level PCs can play latest games too.

desiibond · 04-06-2009, 09:35 PM

You want to play games at max settings, you get the best CPU and GFX that you can buy.

HD 4850 is capable of handling GTA 4 up to 1650 X 1080 resolution with high settings

if u extend ur budget to 35K to 40K then u can go for GTX 260 or HD 4870 1GB which play in HD 1920 X 1080 .

dOm1naTOr · 05-06-2009, 11:42 AM

X3 720: 7.2k
Biostar TA790GX 128M or MSI K9A2 CF - F : 5.5k
MSI HD 4770*2 CF: 13k
VX 450 or Antec EA 650 SLI: 4k or 4.8k
2*2GB : 3k
330 or antibiotic: 1.8 or 1.6k

This can kick even GTS 275 or GTX 280 in almost every games and benchs and plays GTA4 at max upto 900/1050p.

comp@ddict · 05-06-2009, 12:37 PM

MSI P45 Neo-F -> 6k
Transcend 2*2 (4GB) -> 2.4k
Palit GTX 260 -> 10.5k
Corsair VX450/Tagan 500W -> 3.8/3.6k

damngoodman999 · 05-06-2009, 10:55 PM

AMD phenom 2 940 is much faster than E8400 also in Overclocking

Palit GTX 260 is 11.3k

PALIT GTX 260 SP216 sonic is much faster than HD 4870 1GB sonic , out of 10 games 6 games GTX 260 scores more FPS than HD 4870

dOm1naTOr · 06-06-2009, 08:36 PM

ya, EA 650 @ 4.8k is a real gr8 deal. EA too is seasonic OEM[like VX], and EA 650 is SLi certified, though it looks like a cheap PSU. It 80% efficient, and overloads great with active PFC.
