A friend wants to upgrade his processor and motherboard under 5K.
So is there any AMD Llano or Trinity processor+motherboard combo kit, similar to the Intel Atom CPU+Mobo kits, under 5K?

Do provide a link from where we can buy it online, if possible.

Not possible with LLano and Atom with repective mobos.
This processor: AMD 2.8 GHz AM3 Sempron 145 Processor - AMD: Flipkart.com

This mobo: Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2PT Motherboard - Gigabyte: Flipkart.com

Total comes to Rs.5400/-

But if you buy this processor instead: *www.flipkart.com/amd-athlon-ii-x2-...FAP&icmpid=reco_pp_recoBundle_computer_tab1_2

It will be a lot better config.


What is the config for btw? Download rig?

^^Topgear, E-350 is a very weak CPU and not good for anything part from downloading and Web browsing. If budget is a constatint then he should opt fot cheaper Pentium Dual Core processors like G530 and a very cheap H61 motherboard.

I know and spending 1000-1200 bucks more should give Op far better combo but Op did not mentioned his usages type but for 720P/1080P* movie watching, using Libre Office like apps and browsing the net the combo should suffice.
