PC Buying Guide 2012 - Q4

Budget Z77 boards are here and asus is really into the party:

ASUS P8Z77-M Motherboard @ 8.2k

Isn't the pricing really sweet guys even though this one sports m-atx form factor?

[RiGOD]

^^So true buddy. 4 RAM slots, internal USB 3.0 header, OC'ing support and all that at a wallet-friendly price. Consider the current scenario I really think MSI will come up with an even cheaper counterpart

[saswat23]

Now price increased by 2k

Buy Asus P8H77-M PRO Intel H77 Motherboard in Mumbai India

[RiGOD]

^^The price is obviously high, after-all its a H77 motherboard . Let's see if Intel/MSI will come up with a cheaper option.

Price fail for mATX board.
I think Asus is trying to sell off their H67 & Z68 boards at existing price.

Jas, I think it's time to update the configs. Currently there are lots of changes in the hardware markets: Couple of AMD Processors are not available any more, all the HD 7000 series Gfx cards are available, HDD prices are updated. So need to update it quickly.

[RiGOD]

^^Time to update this sticky too I guess

[thetechfreak]

Guys. I think we should also help Jas by updating a bit. He is busy with exams[entrances]

Will be posting a update of 20k config soon.

[Cilus]

Then you guy's time starts now. I'm also working on couple of configs.

[thetechfreak]

Found this perfect configuration posted by RiGOD in one of threads. Perfect for 60k budget imo.

.

I tried fitting a Llano A6 on the 20k rig but the budget would be grossly overshot. Should it be moved to 25k?

[Cilus]

That config is really good.

[RiGOD]

This is the 20k config I have in mind friends.

[thetechfreak]

How about using a even cheaper monitor like Benq G610HDAL @3.9k
and including a basic card like HIS Radeon H645F1G HD 6450 1 GB (64bit) DDR3 DVI (HDCP) HDMI VGA PCIe X16 2.1 Graphic Card

[Cilus]

RiGOD, in your configuration, we can go with Pentium G620 and a H61 motherboard combo as it performs way better than Athlon II.

[RiGOD]

^^Okay buddy, which motherboard will be better?
MSI H61M-P21 (B3) @ 2860
ASUS P8H61-M LX @ 3050
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2H @ 3450

@thetechfreak : It's a rig of office work nah buddy, a GPU won't be necessary I guess

BTW the 25k configuration

[thetechfreak]

@thetechfreak : It's a rig of office work nah buddy, a GPU won't be necessary I guess

I think the GPU can alo be made optional as many people want to get a low end basic rig too ;p

@Cilus I think we should recommend the Msi H61 board. What you say?

[RiGOD]

Sub 30k configuration

[Cilus]

RiGOD, from now on we should move to 500GB Seagate/WD Blue HDD which are available at 4.3K in most of the Online shops and around 3.9K to 4K locally.

[RiGOD]

^^Done buddy. And what about the low end H61 motherboard?

MSI H61M-P21 (B3) @ 2860
ASUS P8H61-M LX @ 3050
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2H @ 3450

Which one for G620?

[SunE]

^^ I'd say Micro Star International

The Gigabyte one is much better than the above two. The major differences being, 4 Memory Slots, and HDMI port. Just for 400 rupees more, you get better room for upgrades.

[RiGOD]

40k configuration suggestion :


OR

[Cilus]

RiGOD, don't include Phenom II X4 955, 965 or other Deneb based processors. Only 960T is available and other X4 processors are very hard to find.

For price reference you guys can also have a look at WELCOME TO MDCOMPUTERS ::::::::::The Ultimate IT Solutions:::::::::: . This site has been completely revised and all the latest products including GTX 680, the whole range of HD 7000 series, Corsair products are available there.

The website looks better now and more professional. But some data is just not right: Corsair H80 is costlier than H100.

BTW, nice pricing on Noctua D14 (although still on the higher side), Sapphire 7870 & 7850.

Typo?

[Cilus]

^^ Ya. Edited.

[dfcols71]

most of the prices on md are high no match for prime,delta,itwares or smc

[Cilus]

Listen, I have posted the MD computer link not to recommend you guys to purchase from there but to find products which are not available in other sites or MD has lesser price. Example is Sapphire HD 7850.
Stop comparing it without other shops here. These posts doesn't provide any input to the cause apart fom post count increase.

[dfcols71]

i pretty much doubt the reliability of price in md even in their earlier website they quoted some low price for some monitors,ups,graphics cards but when you click on their cart to buy there is no updation or complete email sent to you about your order between who would buy i5 2500k @13000 plus or asus v pro z68 mb @17000 plus from them, which is even more than z77 vpro mb
