Hi arvind,
dump the P4 and go for AMD cozz => AMD RULZZZZZZZZ

For the cheapest s939 mobo, the MSI RS480 based on the express200 is the way to go. I haven't read/know much abt its performance right now. Most other mobos are SLI or nf4 ultra based, except the a8v which doesnt have pci-e.

For gcards, there isnt any 5900LE only 5900XT which sucks imho. Go for the 6600 nongt.

Whats the cost of MSI RS480?????????
Ive read bout it on CH** but the price is not mentioned, so I thought it would be quiet expensive!!!!
Any way thanks for your opinion.


I heard that 6600 non GT has ordinary DDR(much slower)
Can I OC it to get the perfomance of a GT?????

[Sourabh]

MSi RS480 someone quoted as 6500Rs around

well this is the rite price round abt bcoz even in US it costs 98$

so 6-6.5k is allrite for it

Yeah like sourabh said "Someone quoted 6.5k"
Ask arnd mate.

Yes the 6600GT has Gddr3 while the nonGT has ddr, you can OC the core like hell since its the same but the memory is a different ball game altogether. And no matter how much you OC u will still fall short of the GTs performance(even if Uber OC). Better get the GT if you want that sort of performance.

In CH** it is mentioned something like dual display if used with an ATI Gcard
Does it mean nvidia cards wont work fine with it or performs less??????
Should I go for an ATI card ??(X600 instead of 6600 non GT)
