650VA APC UPS with KPower's config if you do not have it.

Lower of overall total can be done by getting HD3850/HD3870/9600GT in less than 7K
and Coolermaster 500W PSU in 2.7K

but if you think of keeping HD4850 then you will have to get 600W coolermaster for sure. and a 800VA UPS

+1. Go for this one. YOu may have to increase the budget to 43k. Go for Dell 198WFP instead of 1908WFP as 1908WFP costs 4k more than 198WFP and for the price of1908WFP you would get 22" display. MOreover, it will shoot the price above 45k.

Agreed, but change to 500GB WD, save money there.
Get DDR2 800MHZ RAM

Rest all fine.

Thanks for the instant reply, Dilip.

I think the configuration that you've suggested suits well with the machine config i'm looking for. But can u suggest me what if i'll go with AMD Processor and any other graphic card like nvidia. also kindly know me the price of config.

I've heard maximum people recommends AMD processors when it comes to the gaming.

sorry wasn't aware




And for now, just get 2*1 GB DDR2 800MHZ RAM

Try to settle for a 5.1 speaker set, RAM can be upgraded later and it's prices are constantly falling, especially of DDR2.

As KPower Mania Said, AMD is not upto mark currently so better go for INTEL. As they give the best proccy's. The brand PALIT is good for GFX card. So better go for PALIT HD4850, which is the root design of ATi, and many of them here suggest HD4850 GFX card, as it is very FTW.

Anyways if u want to go with NVIDIA go for 8800GT or 9800GT or 9600GSO Sonic.

But betterway u go for PALIT HD4850 only.

Thanks,
Varad

^It's not FTW.....it's VFM .

Anyways, Sapphire will be a better buy rather than Palit .

If you want to go NVIDIA than the new 9800GT is surely a g00d card.

not so much is the case with HD4850 i know two of my friends at different places bought sapphire HD4850 a week before ..and face the problem of heating ...i bought the palit near about then along with many fellow digit members here ...they don't face any heating problem...

even before ...most of the heating problem that ever came.....came from sapphire HD4850 ...just check the net ....now the sapphire has come up with a dual slot cooler model ..which might run cool ...but again that costs 11k ...while palit HD4850 costs about 9.7k ...

so sapphire here is not as good as palit ....atleast in this case...it has better name cos it the oldest ATI partner ...support at my place in bad for sapphire but good for gecube/palit cos they are distributed by tirupati ..and their serivces are more or less same..and in general quite good compared to other distributors... wherever they have offices ...

and yes even the new palit comes with a dual slot cooler fan ....

But just one notification, the Nvidia cards perform much much better in games like CRYSIS, GRAW2, while in GRID and COD4 and MASS EFFECT, AMD rulez.

So, even a 9800GT will perform well vis-a-vis thee 4850 but 4850 IMAGE QUALITY is WAY WAY better.

It is a 7200RPM drive with a 16MB buffer.

It costs around 3.5-3.6k and has a whooping capacity of 640GB .

BTW, its Western Digital Caviar 640GB .
