ps3 or a cpu for 35000.

[vamsi_krishna]

Hello,

just 10 minuts before, my father gave me an offer. He said that he will give 35,000 to purchase a ps3 and some games. Or he will buy me a cpu, motherboard, graphics card, smps. For the same amount. My computer upgrade is purely for gaming. What should i do now. If i should opt for upgrading my pc then suggest me some good graphic card, cpu and mother borad for 35000.


thnax in advance.

[m-jeri]

PS3...but no piracy for a long time...

PC if u want gen purpose machine.....but believe u cannot buy a pc with that budget for competing with ps3...

PS3 is the way to go...

[Ethan_Hunt]

For processor you can go in for a E8400 @9k & Graphic card should be no less than an MSI 8800GT OC edition which should be around 11.9k.Get a Coolermaster Extreme 600W PSU which should be around 3.2k.Wait for the motherboard suggestions from the rest.

[ray|raven]

Go for a PS3 , that way you wont have to beg ur dad a couple of months later for another upgrade to play the sequel to Crysis or whatever.

Although, you will still have to shell out money for games.

Abit IP35e - 5k
E8400 - 9k
XFX 8800GT 512MB - 12k
Cooler Master eXtreme Power 600W - 4.5k

For the rest 4.5k get another HDD and a BroadBand connection (If u have Dial-Up or another slow speed that is) and u can get the games JUST LIKE IT. FOR FREE. (PM me if u are exciting)

This is THE WAY TO GO I SAY. Cause if u dont have a 32" LCD TV at ur home than PS3 will look blurry and the games are costly too.

[Ethan_Hunt]

^A CM Extreme 600W for 4.5k?

[Plasma_Snake]

Like Paranj said, if you don''t have and HDTV go for a PC but it can't compete with PS3 in anyway. IF you have an HDTV go blindly for PS3, you won't be disappointed. Ganes cost may initially make the running cost of the console high but we all know price drops are always around the bend.

[jigu]

go with ps3. if u buy or upgrade pc then u have to say bye bye to that system after 3 yr for gaming purpose. this is negative point for pc gamer.

[amitash]

a 35k PC just cant match the ps3...if u have a HDTV at home ten go for the ps3 but games are quite costly...if ur a frequent upgrader like me ten go for a PC

[baccilus]

This is a no brainer. No PC you build today will last you for more than 2 years for gamin. You can even spend a lakh, it still can't last as long as a PS3 ( or an XBOX360). I think every one will agree with me there. A PS3 will last at least for 5-6 years, even more. By that time your family may even buy an HDTV as it will get cheaper. Additionally modding chips or something may also come out for PS3.
Additionally you can also go for XBOX. I think it's games are cheaper.

The GPU of PS3 is already outdated as of now.It's biggest USP is it's raw processing power with 9 cores.
But from the games that have been released till now we know that it haven't offered anything special.Most games in it were actually made for X360 and then ported to PS3.From what I have read on net it is difficult to program for PS3 because of the unsymmetric architecture.Dont ask me the details bcoz I admit I dont know.

And Iam damn sure that PS3 wont last for another 5-6 years.
I can bet for anything on that.It is going to be a burden like PS2 did for the game developers no matter how powerful it is in 3-4 years.
The biggest example was GTA:San Andreas.Any one who had played it know that it looks like $hit.The developers had done it purposefully even though the PCs of that time cud do more than that because they accepted money from sony to create the game for the PS2 which was already outdated and it shud be able to handle the game properly.

GTA IV for PS3 costs around Rs.3000.In my opinion no Indian except Tata,Birla and Ambani would find that price reasonable for just a game.
Also most homes in India dont have HDTVs to enjoy PS3 games which costs more than a fortune and which is a total waste as of now considering that there is no HD transmission available in India.

So in my humble opinion you should buy a PC like me.I bought this PC (spec. in signature) for around 33000 2-3 months ago.I know it is not a killer gaming machine with SLIed cards and all but it can run any PC game available now at high settings without lags or hiccups.But I think it is far better than buying a PS3 because it serves my general purposes like music,movies,projects,internet etc. and also is capable for gaming.

I know within a year games of then will start to frame and all.But I have no worries because Iam free to upgrade to whatever config I want.May cost 5000-8000Rs. more.But it is far better than shelling out ur hard earned cash just for games.

PS3 ...lol....

ajaybc PROVES MY POINT .

^^^... you need to get your facts straight..

waht u said is all absurd....

1. Gpu of Ps3 is outdated already.....please quote or say why???

2. Ports...ya u could have said that and save your skin about 7 months ago....now its getting old.... heard about MGS4???....the Best example...rest google....

3. Ps3 wont last 3-5 years... for your kind info a generation of game console's life is 5 years...... after that only tech support be given to users and devos...so besides the point...

Ps3 will offer the exact performance the date they started the gen until it breaks down in ur hand...no one-time-GPU-investment can simply do that for 3 or 5 years..can they.....

4. They are not holding u in point blank range for buying HDTV...u could use ur SDTV, LCD monitor or even ordinary CRT monitor.... ans still have the bang.....

HD transmission not available in india...agreed..but context is ps3...it can transmit HD signals....

I dont own one.but i have ps3..360...and LCD mon...enough....

5. I am not a Ambani,tata or birla....still i buy some title...5 to be exact.... its called orginal s/w.... and i am s/w devoloper so...

(ps....no other way dude.... ..hehhhhee)

6. I own that freaking card.... its coughing on high end games on medium settings sometimes....least said about High end--- do u know what high end actually looks????

its lots a AA's in laymen terms.....

7. Well PS3 is a gaming console alone not a general purpose CPU....people that want to buy it wants to play games not to do "General Stuff"...ask the owners here....

Still on a side note....PS3 can be loaded with linux....company support and Xp with some mods....even without that...it can do all the things u just said....

8. Within a year it will start to frame.... ok... if it does that....Please PM me....i am sending u my ps3 then for free...

I say this coz i am damn sure......i have been into consoles for 7 years..so knows exactly when will they fade out....

9. "But it is far better than shelling out ur hard earned cash just for games."

This could be debated and proved pointless on various levels...but as i said before..no ones holding ya in gun point.... u are free to do with ur money....


PS3 is the way to go here if u r a game lover.... for avg and casual gamers.... PC FTW....

+1 with Madjeri
Look at PS2, it was launched in 1999 and is still selling in Indian market and to call its successor PS3 to be "dead" in just 5 years is just plane, "Moronic".
Its processor, a 128-bit monster is still elusive to the masses, only Dedicated Graphics Designers have their filthy paws on such hardware.
The PlayStation 3 has 256 MB of XDR main memory and 256 MB of GDDR3 video memory for the RSX. Which implies that if the Graphics ops shift onto the Cell then it will perform even better than ur standard GPU. Tell me have seen any GPU with even 64MB of XDR RAM. So PS3 is the ultimate thing if you want pure gaming nirvana, if you can't afford to constantly upgrade ur PC like a high maintenance Malibu bimbo.

[vamsi_krishna]

after hearing this i wanna know one thing,

who's price is going to be fall in the near future, say 1-3 months. And if it is what would be the price fall ? please tell me.

get a X360 at least u can mod it

[Plasma_Snake]

PC components fall regularly and early but PS3 price reduction might take time and since Blu-Ray as a media hasn't picked up in the market, I say it will be almost an year and a half b4 we see substantial price reduction in terms of console and games title prices, but if the Pirates get a way to bypass the PS3 soon(highly unlikely), then we may see lower cost games. XBOX 360(modded) is available for as low as 16K in grey market
with game titles for as low as 150 bucks but tread this path at ur own risks (RROD's anyone).

[chesss]

PC . console games wld be designed to work without a keyboard (i think) which is horrible..

[Plasma_Snake]

@ chesss
Why do you think modern Console have USB slots? Also have you heard of Gentoox?
Google 'em and you shall be answered.

Yeah! He is very "exciting"!

Frankly I am getting tired of all the piracy crap you have been spewing all over the forum. I have almost made up my mind to ban you but I suppose I will just put you in Miserable User list for two days. If I still see you repeating your piracy talk again, I am just going to ban your ass.

This goes for every game pirate out here.

Check for sniper addon for 360..... and PS3 with already supports KBB and mouse....

So please... (U dont think).... better

[naveen_reloaded]

35k ??/

go for pc...

i own a ps3 .. but if its less tha n say 25k .. i would advice u to go for ps3..

[nish_higher]

a console , like i earlier said a ps3..but check the games first-the main thing before getting a console is this..
dont concentrate on that ability to mod / GPU / CPU s**t coz it does not matter at all

both the consoles (PS3,360) have some nice titles..if u r a MGS 4 or uncharted fan then a PS3..otherwise go for 360..

OT- nice work ctrl_alt_del

Maybe I didn't explain properly.
yes keyboards can be attached to consoles but a vast majority of users won't , and for them, manufacturers wld have to design games assumiong the absense of a keyboard, which IMHO wld severly restrict game design.

Case in point - usually in a RPG game(aoe) there abt 20 hotkeys that r required. u just can't have that hav functionality in a gamepad(I think)
another- PES4 - mainly a console game, didn't support keyboard so u had to type using a screen keyboard

[Plasma_Snake]

Wii's not Officially available in India and in Grey market its cost is almost equivalent to that of PS3 i.e. 24K so just forget the Wii. I'm saying it again, if you've got HDTV, go for PS3 Period.
