to accomodate them you have to go for pentium or have to leave a good ddr5 graphic card so avoid it HDD added.

and loose your game progress/important documents if power cut happens...not every region in our country has sufficient power.

That mobo doesnot support fx 6300 out of the box.you need to flash it with AM3 + bios flash first.

yes same one

ohh yeah, but its a good mobo for the price tho.. No way to extend any more

That mobo doesnot support fx 6300 out of the box.you need to flash it with AM3 + bios flash first.

im getting a feeling that ill have to assemble the pc myself
this seems some complicated work
any other option?

yes same one

If you are getting the Rev 5.0 version then you will get out of the box Piledriver CPU support including FX-6300

Learn how to do it or extend budget for higher end mobo or go for lower end components
Your choice..

geez

any other alternate to that mobo?

bee said:

no other.all are above 5.5k

If you are getting the Rev 5.0 version then you will get out of the box Piledriver CPU support including FX-6300

how do i know if its the rev 5.0 version?

it will be surely on the box of mobo

whats the lowest il get for HD7770?

@op you are far better with i3 + hd 7790 config.it seems best for your budget.Hd 7790 is very good match for 900p gaming and can max most games.In pure gaming i3 +7790 will easily beat fx 6300 + hd 7770 anyday

In pure gaming i3 +7790 will easily beat fx 6300 + hd 7770 anyday

bee said:

At local store

bee said:

YES.In gaming gpu is all matters then come cpu.i3 is still a good gaming cpu and can handle any games at good settings paired with mid range gpu.

im so sure it'll be 12k here

anyone on the forum who knows of a decent shop in chandigarh??

^ if you still not able to find at good price.Then consider gtx 650ti 1gb.it will be around 10k which just performs slight slower than 7790.

or in online

650ti - *mdcomputers.in/index.php?route=pro...650 TISPER=211=GPU&path=74_86&product_id=1883

Hd 7790 - *mdcomputers.in/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=7790&product_id=2078

still the budget is going way over

Really ? but your posts dont say the same thing

was going to get a new pc for hostel
such sick turn of events now im getting this crap or nothing

im on strict low budget

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: **** happened
was going to buy a 45k rig
dad just refused now, its heartbreaking

(have played almost every game that my crap present 128mb gpu supports )

Dude, I understand you are excited to get your gaming PC but pls stop wasting our time with multiple useless threads..
2 weeks from now, you will create another thread... pls dont do that
No offence, take a chill pill

Its annoying explaining the same thing to the same person 4-5 times

This time set the condition that op has to post pics for the components purchased to avoid trolling....

^No restrictions, we arent the authority here..
Just a note for OP, refrain from creating such threads that you find no use ..

that was the story of my buddies :lol:

should i get the fx6300?
i was googling
nd its just a few fps worse than i3 in single threaded operations
but few games do use multi threads
nd so will the forthcoming games
nd also its a grand cheaper
so i think it serves the purpose

also
should i get a second hand lcd monitor to cut the prices?
i could easily afford a HD7790 then

Yes but you will require bios update if you are going for ivy bridge based processor (i3 3220)
AFAIK, no H61 board will work natively with ivy bridge, they require bios update
NO,2nd hand LCDs will develop dead pixels and such.. avoid at all costs..
Compromise on cabinet, Kb/mouse, and HDD .. These you can easily upgrade later ..Dont compromise on CPU, GPU and monitor

nd il also have to do some flashing with the bios if i get the fx, right?

should i go for the fx then?

I believe so, but if u extend budget for series 5 mobo, u wont need to flash.. same with intel if u go for b75 based mobos

found these
cheap nd show fx6300 in their supported list

whats wrong with the above cheap ones?
im really tight on budget
if i get the asrock then i might buy 7770 or 650ti
otherwise il have to get the 7750 if i buy the 78LMT-USB3

nd actually the thing is
though the mobo mentioned is pretty good
but i dont think il use a usb3 or sdd in that case

Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2 Motherboard - Gigabyte: Flipkart.com

recommended but not for overclocking

better get from local market.make sure its is 5.1 rev. i think in flipkart it is 4.1

u talking about this one?

this one with usb 3 - Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 Motherboard - Gigabyte: Flipkart.com

my friend brought this same mobo form flipkart two months ago and he got rev 4.1

Get the USB 3 version as I suggested earlier and also suggested by ASISH65.

its getting way over budget thats the problem

thats the reason i was going for the cheap one

anyhow il try getting money
lets hope for the best

just to have options if its not possible
which mobo to buy with i3?

If you want to go for i3 Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H is good for you @ 4k or Asus P8B75M-LX @ 3.7k

any one of these two?
i know theyre h61
but i guess i wont need a usb3 or a ssd

Of gigabyte ones D2H looks better on paper...
ASUS one is good buy too..

I meant it is good buy if you get it @ quoted price(3.7k)

ASUS P8B75-M LX Motherboard@4.1k
