Thanks .

@sainatarajan : It will be a mild rendering.( hope i am using the word correctly) using format factory for videos and audios.

Can there be anything from AMD LINE?

@OP If you can extend your budget to 44k get the above rig.

For AMD one. Replace the proc and mobo with
AMD FX 8350 @ 11k
Asus M5A97 Evo R2 @ 7k
Total will Increase to 44k

Its simple. The 650 ti 2 GB is the Clear winner.

But the card is extremely overpriced... Its priced at 11.5K .

Yeah. AT that price, HD7850 is also available. And prices may come down for that too :pray:

Wait for some time and HD 7790 from Sapphire would be priced at 10k . You can consider this too.

Currently Asus 7790 is available in MD at 11K. However, I will ask for a little patience, at least end of this month. On that time there is a chance of FX-6300 to be launched in India. Also, 650 ti boost might be available, just guessing in this case.

I think GTX 650Ti Boost will be around Rs 12,350!

H

@OP - As you are going with i5 (or fx 8350) get atleast a 7850. Lower than that and it will be a bad combo

^ Gtx650ti boost or hd 7790 will be equally good.

^ Gtx650ti boost or hd 7790 will be equally good.

+1 to this config

the concerned person is inclined to AMD. so i think he will go with FX 8350.

One more qn for GK- Are the GPUs for gaming and AUTO CAD same?

> Special GPUs (such as Nvidia's Quadro, Tesla and ATI's FirePower) are available which give better price to performance ratios. You are perfectly fine with gaming GPUs.

Thanks. For the below mentioned config pls suggest a good GPU AND PSU within 10 k for both gaming and AUTCAD

Proccessor - INTEL 2.6GHz LGA 1155 Dual Core G620
Mother Board - GIGABYTE - GA-H61M-D2H
RAM - G.SKILL RipjawsX DDR3 4GB 1600Mhz
MONITOR - DELL 18" 1600x900

who wants this one?

anyways get g2010 @same price + much faster than g620

this is for another friend. he is already having the computer with those configs. So no change will be done. You are suggesting a processor while i have asked for GPU & PSU WITHIN 10K

for GAMING & AUTOCAD

lol i taught you are assembling new pc.anyways hd 7770+cxv2 430 is perfect

Thanks. my pc config is in my SIG which i am not going to change in near future until something goes kaput outside warranty. Because of these forums i know much better in my friend circle. So taking suggestions.

So which config have you decided (for which you've started this thread)?

the first config is still under decision but probably the concerned person will go for FX 8350 and the consequents.

Saphhire site shows three models of 7770. Which one to choose?(SAPPHIRE HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB GDDR5)

Get the 1 Ghz one ...

Sainatarajan said:
Get the 1 Ghz one ...

means which one ? left, middle or right?

7770 is not a wise choice ( a bad choice actually) for 1080p gaming. Especially for games like crysis 3, it is seriously underpowered and not a future proof card.
Minimum 2gb vram should be considered. I suggest to wait for cards like 650-ti boost. They are faster than 7850.

If not, then grab the 7850 2gb atleast. Also wait for 6300 as cilus suggested as it will lower the overall budget.

Yes 7850 2gb is the bare minimum nowadays OP can consider 7790 too in that budget much (over all) better than 7770 and based on GCN architecture.

+1 ^

@op go with intel rig over amd as you will save 3k extra for amd mobo which can be invested in better gpu like gtx 650ti,hd 7790 or hd 7850.

hd 7770 is not good choice for 1080p

For 1080p nothing less than a GTX660 will do honestly,let alone Crysis3, any 2012 game onward with minimum decent eye candy on,you would require a GTX660 and up.

And 2 GB Video Ram is going to be another necessity.

Get asus 660 2 GB.

Get asus 660 2 GB.

Both Asus and Zotac are similarly priced..So no problem here.

from both i will go with zotac as asus service is worst

Asus isn't worst right now as its rma is handled by digicare too but yeah zotac's service is best

^ actually i think digicare passes rma to rashi inbetween rma process whereas zotac is handled by aditya infotech(good service)

though not sure about it

ASHISH65 said:

later you have said that it is a bad choice.

However everybody is messing up i think. The config i have asked for at the beginning is separate. In the middle i have asked for

MONITOR - DELL 18" 1600x900

and the suggestion was

hd 7770+cxv2 430 is perfect

i know that this card is not up to the mark but the concerned guy is having a budget of 10 k only. so he has no choice.

^^ go for HD 7770 and Corsair CX 430 v2... Seems perfect for what was asked...

that config was for your friend.for his tight budget,he can only get hd 7770.

and see his resolution * 1600*900 so hd 7770 can handle game at his res.

i said hd 7770 is not good for 1080p for you as new games like crysis 3 can struggle with it and in your budget you can get hd 7850

as i said above go with intel config as you will save money and can add better gpu .

now pls suggest me which 7770 should be taken among the 3(snapshot given above #28 )

^ Go for GHz edition as suggested earlier it seems a better buy.

Get asus or sapphire one. Msi is now out of India and their card was known to be overvoltaged.

Go with SAPPHIRE, better A.S.S

A

Get the left one. Its the best.
