Mobo + DVD for Core 2 duo

[XtremeFuturistic]

Which is the best mobo for a C2D E6600?

Need integrated graphics ( starting from nvidia 6100 preferably ) + inside about Rs.5500

Also, best dvd writer - NEC / Liteon?

DVD witer- Liteon is the best nd u will find trouble in service in India compared to liteon.
Go for Liteon Allwrite LH 20A1P which has 20x DVD speed.

Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3..........Awsome board rock solid stability, all essentials features and on board graphics(GA-965G-DS3 not GA-965P-DS3 the diff is only on board graphics)......price close 9-10K

http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/...ProductID=2361

ASUS P5B-Deluxe WiFi-AP.....Now what can I say about this if you have time go through my threads/posts and you will find loads of reviews about this board...."AWSOME" for this board would be an understatement....best for enthusiastics and overclockers, oodles of options....price close to 11-12 K

http://in.asus.com/products2.aspx?l1=3&l2=11

Biostar TForce 965PT...is good but lacks certain essentials features like no firewire. Also a definate no no for OCs. Not much of tweaking options given. I am not sure its even available..

ASUS P5B...Pick any varient P5B and you got your self a very decent board.

Foxconn P9657AA- 8KS2H......mmm got "just" ample amount of options to tweak and get a decent OC. All other options are jst as usual. It seems a good board, though I have not seen many people infact none using it over ASUS or Gigabyte. YOu can read a nice review of this board at the following link

Well , u can't get a C2D mobo with 6100 IGP ... and u can;t get a good mobo for the C2D under 6k's ... the closes good board is the MSI P965 NeoF , which retails for a bit over 6k's ... get that board and an additional XFX 7300GT card ..

[aquamatrix]

msi neo 965f doesnt have onboard graphics

[assasin]

Guys i've a question:
Will i get a huge performance boost if a get a C2D E6300 + MSI P965 NeoF compared to my present config (plz see my signature for config).
My main job is gaming,programing,video capturing and video and audio conversion.
My present proccy is oced to 2.5GHz

Guys just understand my scenario like here.

I am not that on cash tree.

But I am going for the best components possible eg. C2D E6600 + 800MHz Corsair DDR2 + NEC/Liteon DVD writer + 500 GB HD.

Just want one thing left is & Rs. 4000 left ( but just can be stretched to 6000 ) -

Decent OK Mobo ( with integ graphics )
OR
Decent OK mobo + Any good gfx card for about 2700 like

I will upgrade to a better mobo later when have more cash. So need it only temporarily for about 8-9 months.

So tell me the best option inside cheaper ones.

Mobo - ASUS P5LD2VM-SE / ASUS P5B / ASUS Rock Vsta / Any Others
Gfx card - rates of any best ATI/nvidia etc for around 2800 or so

Btw what's the best model + cost of nvidia 6200 TC / nvidia 6600 ?
__________
Also does anyone know anythin about nvidia 7100 GS.
It's quite cheap on newegg.

[Pathik]

in 6k u can only get a dg965ry or a dg965wh...

[XtremeFuturistic]

Just tell now which is better -

Mobo - ASUS P5LD2VM-SE / ASUS P5B / ASUS Rock Vsta

What's the best model + cost of nvidia 6200 TC / nvidia 6600 ?

[dOm1naTOr]

XFX 6200 256 costs 2800/- nd 6600 is not available as it has stopped production , onlt its GT is available. U can get a 7300GS for 3.2k or 7300GT for 4k which performs lil less than the 6600GT.
7100 any vanila is not available in India.
Orelse u can go for ATI 1300 pro or Xt @ 3.5k or 4.5k.
X1300XT performs same as 7300GT, but X1300PRO is better than 7300GS.

I recoment dun go for such costly proccy as it would become obselete soon when quad cores are mainstream. Then ur whole lot of 15k bucks are wasted. So get the best value for money proccy(E6300 or 6400) along with a good board and OC it to E6600 level and in that case u can also go for a decent card like the 7600GS.
