Feedback on Config + recommend Case

[SGS_001]

Look forward to feedback on the below configuration -- for good future-proofed Media + Very Light Gaming , along with recommendation on the subsequent queries:

Intel Core i5-750, 2.66 GHz (INR 10550)
MSI P55-GD65 (INR 10000)
2 X 2GB Corsair (INR ?)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 - 1TB SATA (INR 4400)
Sapphire Radeon HD 5750, 1GB (INR 6500)
BenQ G2420HD (INR 12500)
Windows 7 Ultimate (INR 8930)

I already have Logitec Wireless Keyboard & Mouse and also LiteOn LH-16A1P487C

#1. What will be the recommended cabinet for this? Will Cooler Master Elite 335 or 360 do? Or some other brand? I would also need it to fit 11" (W) X 20" (H) X 19" (D) space.
#2. Incase the recommended cabinet requires power supply, recommendation for that as well required.
#3. Should an internal multi-media reader be considered or be kept as an external one?
#4. Does this already have on-board sound card or do I need to consider one? If so, which one?
#5. Is there a way to the monitor thru wireless?
#6. Any other thing that needs to be considered in the inventory & quote.

Thanks in advance !

Intel Core i5-750, 2.66 GHz (INR 10550) ------------------> 10,200.
MSI P55-GD65 (INR 10000) -----------------------------> price is ok
2 X 2GB Corsair (INR ?) ----------------------------------> 6600 for 1600Mhz
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 - 1TB SATA (INR 4400)---------> 4200
Sapphire Radeon HD 5750, 1GB (INR 6500) --------------> you sure its HD5750?
BenQ G2420HD (INR 12500) ------------------------------> better get DELL.
Windows 7 Ultimate (INR 8930) --------------------------> not needed. assembler wil install it for you.

1. for cabby, i suggest you minimum NZXT Gamma. if more then Cooler Master Centurion 690.

2. for PSU, VX450 looks best. though i will suggest you Seasonic 380W. low cost & silent. but if u wish to crossfire in future, VX550W should suffix for 2X the card you choose.

3. better internal one. wil keep your desk space clean. not sure if both above mentioned cabby have support for them.

4. MSI got Realtek premium, Realtek ALC889. 8ch sound.

5. wireless? not sure. lets see if others know about it more.

6. get a good UPS. you getting 24" monitor. so i wil suggest something like APC 650Va or even more. get a good set of 5.1 ch speaker.

Appreciate your quick response, Sam.

** Nzxt Gamma -- it has a depth of 20" while I can accommodate only max 19"
So need a different cabinet recommended...

** Cabinet supporting an internal media reader -- are there any good ones which can be considered?

** As for UPS -- I already have APC HI800SQ at home and this will be used for the power backup. I also got a Philips HTS which I next need to plan integrating

Look forward to further feedback / recommendations.

my pleasure buddy

well searching for cabby like this wil be a tough task. oh totally missed, you may look at CM Elite 360 @ 2.1k. its a mini tower & should not create any problem for you. more over the cabby is very good looking. all black finish like the Gamma. i think its depth should be within 19".

i not have much ideas about cabby that support media reader. ok heres a tip: visit NewEgg. go to cabinet section. & do a power search. do check the box against the "media reader". you'll be provided with a long list. Antec, Cooler Master, NZXT, Thermaltake. if you get any cabinet within these 4. chances are you'll get them locally also.

ok, then its enough for the PC, i think. Philips HTS + a powerful PC = good Gaming & HTPC.

Sam -- Missed these earlier...

** Sapphire Graphics card -- I'm referring to http://www.sapphiretech.com/presenta...000101&pid=292
Any reason why you asked whether "you sure.." ?

** Do you think BenQ G2420HD is not as good as Dell? Which Dell model are you recommending?

** What do you mean by assembler will install win7? Will that be genuine?

the price of the card is too low. its not possible. it maybe HD5670 1Gb GDDR5. never seen a HD5750 selling as low as 6.5k.

well its good but almost everyone prefers DELL when coming to 24" monitors. their service is excellent. well i not have much idea about monitors though. sorry.

yes it'll be genuine. well i not sure but i think they purchase 1 single copy of Windows XP/Vista/7 & install it in all PC's. so chances are you'll get genuine stuff.

I recommend the VX450 from Corsair and maybe a CM690 - not sure of the depth. If you can spend a bit more on the CPU, you could get an i7 860 for around 14.5K. Hyperthreading makes this CPU worth it.
