New comp for 50-60 K

Blended Pain · 19-01-2007, 03:35 PM

Hi, I need help picking out a config for a new comp, my budget is around 50-60k.
It should be good enough for gaming. I play games like NFS Carbon+Most Wanted, GTA, Thief 3, FIFA, PES, Q4, Halo etc.

One thing to keep in ming is I'm not much (or not at all) of a overclocker so if some card is cheaper just because i doesn't allow overclocking, I would prefer it. BTW how much RAM is the norm nowdays? Also please suggest sufficent power I will need.

Instead of going for LCD go for CRT monitor and use the money to buy E6600.
E6600 is much more good performer than E6300. For more information read DIGIT Nov 2006 issue.
And if you can wait till June this year lower and mid range Dx10 cards form nVIDIA and ATi are coming.
Its best if you have some motherboard which have onboard graphics card like DG965RY or DG965WH.
Both motherboard will cost you around 7K.
These onboard graphics cards (X3000 from intel) are not so good but the Dx10 cards are worth waiting for.

if u want to wait for dx 10 but need a gud gfx solution temporarily, try the palit x1600pro.....its a pretty decent card & retails for 4k. u can save money on that instead of buying the X1950 & later get a dx10 card
