Just upgrade your RAM.

2.5" Hard Disks less than 5GB will be very difficult to find. And also the casing will itself charge you Rs.400.

A gud headsphone? Or an entry 2.1 speaker?
A gud PSU, or another 512mb ram.

If u were a gamer, then invest for a gaming mice or KB.

Default Re: What to Buy for 1k?

btw , what should be the price for 512 Mb DDR RAM like this and a decent Graphic Card ( max 5k )


i occasionally play Games i would never play NFS Pro Street , Crysis Etc.
i *will* mostly Play Sims 2 Guiter Hero 3 , Spider Man 3

and i want to Play games like GTA SA and Splinter Cell Pandora tomorrow to run at highest settings

Remember my monitor is 1024x768 i never exceed resolution above 800x600
these resolutions are fine as i have 15"

and regarding money , me and my brother collected 2k Rupees by robbing a bank (just kidding) and i dont think my father will give more than 2k for buying a thing that i already have to play just "GAMES" .

he says u r PC plays games na , so why use Graphic Card


So...

Assuming a pcie slot on ur mobo....
get a 512mb ddr (1.2k)
get a 8400GS 256mb card (2.8 to 3.2 K) {depending on where u stay}


Still its 4.4k so u stil have a room of about 6k for anythin else or jus save it
rather
if u get any better card like 8500GT or something for arnd 4k then get that( not sure of 8500GT price)

hell no. not an 8500gt. YOu can get 8600gt for 5.5k now. 8500gt is just waste of money.

3.5" HDD casing should cost Rs.800
@max_demon, I think you have DDR 400 RAM.
Transcend 512MB DDR400 price is Rs.1400

Best thing you can do is get a 512MB RAM.

yes. even if you get 8600GT, a 512mb ram will be a serious bottleneck for playing games.
