Decent Rig.

godzi_85 · 17-06-2005, 11:40 PM

ya dude what`s the price man????????????
hmm i think the arits is cheaper than altec lansing? isn`t it????????????
btw how much for the ram/

dOm1naTOr · 17-06-2005, 11:50 PM

Hey I think Uve spent bout 50k!!!
I think 160 GB is better when cost/MB is calculated nd U could have got an Xtra 40 BG for a few bucks.
Any way this is a powerful PC for home use nd gaming.
Congrats dude.

hii plz suggest me any gud 5.1 speakers with WIRELESS REMOTE.i went for this because i liked it wen my vendor showed it to me but its ok i mean decent not bad at all and the main reason was to go for this artis was its wireless remote but as one of my cousin want that so i'll give it to him and will buy any other good speaker.tell me a good UPS as my wipro isnt that good just have 5-6 min backup which is really very less.well i wont have that much of use of 160GB,120GB is more then enough for me.

You can go for the Altec Lansing VS3151-R.. will cost around 5-6k depending on your area. These are decent 5.1 speakers with wireless remote...

devilhead_satish · 18-06-2005, 12:20 PM

@diabolic_saint can you tell me at what price you bought the RAM for?

dude the guy says he got it for 6200 :roll: read his post properly mate.

Chirag · 18-06-2005, 02:03 PM

As everyone says go for Altec Lansing Speakers.

Besides ur rig is cool. Nice rig

mohit · 18-06-2005, 02:25 PM

good rig except speakers ... go for the altec lansing vs 3151 r ... use cpu-z to check the core of ur processor. and ya i hope u have bought a good branded smps such as powersafe,antec etc coz ur rig is an expensive high end one and a cheap psu can screw it. take care. and u shud have gone for a 800VA UPS as u r using a 19" crt. enjoy !!!

Aniruddh · 18-06-2005, 03:22 PM

true u shud go for 800VA which will give u more backup.and altec lancsing is any day betta then artis.if u want u can eva go for a gud soundcard as well its not needed but still if u really wanna gud sound quality only then other wise ur onboard will b enough..

mohit · 18-06-2005, 03:27 PM

@Aniruddh
A sound card is really not required unless your are one hell of a music freak.. these days all mobos come shipped with good onboard sound.

For UPS,
APC is the best but very expensive. Numeric is a good alternative and comes with 2 years warranty on battery also and onsite service which is very prompt.

APC 600 VA - around 3,000/-
Numeric 600 VA - 2,050/-
Numeric 800VA - 4,000/-

It is the best....

Mine APC 500 VA is runnin good, battery lasted 5years

yes u read it rt
it is available for - Rs. 2,300/- only

supersaiyan · 19-06-2005, 04:44 PM

u should have gone for a gainward 6600gt . newayz other things are fine. happy computing

akshayt · 19-06-2005, 09:23 PM

is it corsair xms or not?

with value select there is memory issue

i too have corsair value select 2 X 512mb ddr 400 with asus a8n-e and it crashes with games like ron,hitman : contracts

which bios do you have?

which ram will you change to?

goobimama · 20-06-2005, 12:10 AM

I think a sound card plays quite an important role in your sound experience. Plug in an Audigy ZS and see the difference. You will not have realised the true potential of your speakers without a decent sound card....

I'm stuck with a Live 5.1 platinum....let's see what fortune has for me....

One question, what should I go in for: The Artis X10 or the Creative Megaworks 550 THX? Digit rated the Artis as the best performance while Techtree.com didn't give the artis much value....

super_i_man · 20-06-2005, 12:21 AM

Boss your config is costly, you should go for an APC ups. And in the indian market Altech Lansing are the best. If you are rich or have a rich parent then you can go for BOSE!!!!
