Budget Gaming PC for 50k Strict

Hey guys, my old thread here was now somewhat outdated, so I thought I should make a new one instead of bumping it. Here's the questionnaire filled up.

1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')

Ans: Primarily Gaming, for playing games like Battlefield 3, FIFA 12, Batman Arkham City, and upcoming titles in there full glory at 1080p.

2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.

Ans: Overall budget was 40K, extended to 50k now, it is strictly 50K, please do not exceed this.

3. Planning to overclock?

Ans: Yes, both CPU and GPU.

4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?

Ans: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

5. How much hard drive space is needed?

Ans: Whichever is cheaper, 250GB will do for now, i have external 500GB, will buy more when prices come down.

6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.

Ans: Yes, 22 inch, 1080p with LED backlight will do.

7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?

Ans: I want to buy Everything.

8. When are you planning to buy the system?

Ans: Next week, probably before 2nd May

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?

Ans: Yes, will do myself from ground up.

10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?

Ans: Locally, can't buy online except from Flipkart (COD)

11. Anything else which you would like to say?

Ans: I have my configuration already finalised, just need some refinements is there are any. Heres the config -

AMD Phenom X4 960T --- 7000

~~Gigabyte GA-880GM USB3 --- 5200~~

Asus M5A97 --- 6200

G-skill F3-10600CL9S-4GBNT 4Gx1 --- 1665

250 or 320 GB HDD ~ 3400

NZXT Lexa S --- 4200

Corsair CX430v2 --- 2500

Optical Drive --- 1100

KB/Mouse --- 700

Speaker --- 1000

Monitor Benq G2222HDL --- 8000

HD7850 2GB --- 15000

Total ~~49,765~~ 50765

Please give your opinion about this.

CX 430 V2 is not enough to power a 7850. Better get a cheaper cabinet and get something like Seasonic SII12 520 or GS 600

Well, Cilus, thanks for the advice, but I researched a lot and many sources have confirmed that it can handle 7850 easily

Going for those PSUs will overshoot my budget a lot.

Also Edited the config by changing the motherboard to M5A97 as suggested.

Any more changes guys?

Anandtech. HD7850 will require ~300W (350W if you OC GPU + CPU). so you are basically running really close to what CX430W can provide.

And get 500Gb HDD. price difference is really less. around 400-500.

dude,from my own research i have found that 960t's Ship with old athlon coolers with NO heatpipes(i plan this proccy for my own rig,and cilus told me that amd quad cores dont have good stock coolers)
so you may need a Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Cooler if not OC'ing
but you want to OC
this is then best bet for the price
CM hyper 212 EVO

HD 7850 actually consumes less power than HD 6850. Seen in many reviews.

desiJATT, from now on if you're planning to suggest or get M5A97 then ditch the idea as at 6.6K range Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 is available which is of better quality, offers 8+2 Phase VRM and hence good for tweaking, more number of sata and USB ports.

Simply get this board instead of M5A97. Available at smc.

Go with this.

Well, i think going GA-970A-UD3 makes more sense

Will go for it.

Thank you d3p, this configuration looks just great. But i have to sacrifice the uber looks of cabinet. But, Source 210 Elite = 2500 and NZXT Lexa S = 4200 that means i have to shell 1800 extra and will total up as 53,300. Will try to shell out extra bucks for Lexa S, if I couldn't, then Source 210 is the way to go for me

EDIT

Also, GS600 is on a higher side, my PC won't even cross 400W on full load, so a 500W supply would suffice, also, d3p, you didn't include speakers, that will make it 1k more, so please suggest a 3k PSU which is 500W like CX500 or Seasonic 520 with it's model and price so i can add up the speakers.

Any more changes or should I finalize this build (will decide the cabinet at the last minute) and place the order?

Then finalize 700-800 bucks more .. You will get 500gb wd hdd wid 2yrs warranty :razz:

Edited my last post, recheck it

Also, funskar, 250GB will do for me, will buy more when prices are down. Can't extend any more, it's already 10k over the initial budget

One more noob question guys, I am opting for BTECH CSE this year, so I need to develop applications based on C, C++ and JAVA sometime later. Will this PC be enough for these tasks? Does this kind of coding needs such a high end hardware? I will also be buying a Laptop in August end, which will probably be a netbook for me, as I think coding doesn't need much of a resources does it?

i would suggest you to go with GS600, coz the moment you wish to OC both the CPU as well the GPU. It will consume more power & chances are like you might be in the border line.

Better to go with GS600 & with NZXT Source Elite than NZXT LEXA S. Use that extra budget here with PSU.

^^Agree with you. NZXT Lexa S is just for people who give importance to from rather than function. The cable management is not up to the mark and it has troubles with large CPU coolers. At the same time NZXT Source 210 Elite may look a bit awkward, but its a great VFM case.

About the PSU, I'd say go for any SeaSonic as they have far better build quality compared to low end Corsair's.

@OP :- Spend your money wisely on performance parts buddy. The eye candy thing will fade out soon.

Seasonic is the best and OEM for many other PSU brands including corsair.

Check out the below review:
Seasonic S12II-520W (recommended for a 50K Gaming PC)
Cost around 3700 - 3900 on ebay.

Seasonic S12 II Bronze 520W Review

Ok guys, got your point. I am now going to the dealer for getting the quotation for the following hardware -

AMD Phenom X4 960T

Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3

G-skill F3-10600CL9S-4GBNT 4GBx1

250 or 320 GB HDD

NZXT Source 210 Elite

Seasonic S12II-520

Optical Drive

KB/Mouse

Speaker

Monitor Benq G2222HDL

Sapphire HD7850 2GB

Optional (If I decide to spend more)
First Cooler Master TX3 (Hyper 212 is way over budget)
then,
NZXT Lexa S

This.

@OP: Instead of looking for a cabinet upgrade, that too just for looks, better to spend on the Hyper 212 Evo or larger HDD or more RAM.

S

^^ Skud while I partially agree with you, I also think that a bling-bling cabinet is a one time thing, meaning that if he goes for Source 210 Elite right now, he probably won't be getting a Lexa S (or something else) say 1 year later. But things like RAM,HDD and Cooler can be added anytime. So if OP wishes for a good looking cabinet upfront I think he should buy it.

A cabinet will never give performance numbers except bling bling.

Especially at this case, he should look more into getting Good processor or mobo & mainly a PSU.

T

Not in agreement with you statement.

A Temp difference between a Good Air flow Cabinet and a poor quality one can go as high as 8-10 Deg. which is quite substantial.

I would say skip the Cabinet Upgrade for now though and Invest more in PSU.
520W may be good enough for now but As you got a BE CPU it will require more power when OCed + a Mid High range card in Future like 560 Ti or 6950 etc will push it to limits.

Always buy an overkill PSU imho.

I would say get a TX650 or Seasonic 620W version for total fullproof solution for any single gfx + CPU (Both OCed ) config.

For bling bling, just ensure your cabinet has a large enough side window. Now add LED fans, strips, lightings whatever you want. No need for specialized bling bling cabinet. Particularly, Lexa S. It's problems are already summarized.

Totally agreed, this was what i thought. I could not go for another cabinet after my purchase, it's permanent, whereas adding coolers and rams is an optional upgrade which can be added afterwards too.

Already going for the best possible CPU and PSU at my budget

Source 210 Elite is a good cabinet in terms of airflow, Lexa S was just for the eye candy.

Moreover, yes, we should buy an overkill PSU, but not by sacrificing other components. Whats the use of 650W supply when my PC cannot even cross 450W on 100% TDP load with processor clocked at 4.5 GHz and GPU overclocked to it's limits? I already changed the PSU to Seasonic S12II 520 to get a headroom for overclock, now i can't go any further. Still thanks for suggesting

I appreciate your replies

Ohh guys, EDIT - How's Corsair CX500v2 ?

S

Dude get the Corsair GS600 instead of S12ii-520 as your OCed system would draw about 470W power and 520W will be too close to it. Both are almost same price, GS600 being about 300-400 Rs more.

SunE said:

GS 600 is almost Rs.600 more than SeaSonic 520. Paying Rs.4620 OP can get a Seasonic 620 which has far better build quality and more warranty than GS 600.

Arey vai, Seasonic S12II-520 is an under-rated PSU and it is equivalent to miost of the 600W PSU. At 12V rail it provides 40A current which is suffient for any kind of GPU overclocking. Also the 12V rail current is almost equal to GS600. Plus it offers 80+ Bronze certification...hence less electric bill.

^^And yeah, for SeaSonic efficiency ~ 87% whereas GS 600 ~80%

Lol... Cilus losing patience and typing Hindi. :lol:

Seasonic S12II-620W can be considered keeping future upgrade in mind. Else the 520W is more than enough for the present rig, even OCed.

T

The 520W is enough for now. I agree. But PSU & Cabinet are never changed often.

I suggest Seasonic 620W and forget about PSU till it burns down.(5-7 Years or so) (Considering you will never SLI or CF)

Yes, but still not decided about the HDD, some vendors in Jalandhar say 500GB is minimum available, i can't seem to get 250GB. Rest all is finalised, the quotation for prices will come tomorrow and will order after my AIEEE exam on 29th.

get a Source 210 non elite version for approx for 2k or a NZXT gamma instead and try to fit a 8GB RAM in
or
you would fit a 7870 in it too

960T 6.9k
Asrock 870 Extreme 3 4.5k
4 GB RAM 1600Mhz 1.6k
500GB HDD 4.3k

Hope you like it

and i would suggest you if you dont mind and have a external HDD for storage then for 4k for 4.5k go for a 60GB SSD it would be worth it

And you missed the UPS buddy

Guys, a 1333MHz RAM is enough.. No need to go for 1600, OP can spend 500 bucks on something else..

T

firstly motherboard is a 4+1 Heatsinked Motherboard whihc can handle a 4Ghz 960T overclock and support CF/SLi x8/x8 have a look HERE its can handle a X6 at 3.8 to 3.9 Ghz then y not a 960T locked hex @ 4.oGhz

change Cabinet to CM Elite 310 which is i guess under 2k
Monitor my bad its for 7.5k
GPU is for 22k HERE which is a overclocked version if you search a Sapphire or Powercolor Card it would be cheaper
Anyways thanx for the feedback

but overall what do you think ???

@MegaMind - You're right. No noticeable performance difference between 1600MHz & 1333MHz on a Deneb.
@Tarun - Buy link for the ASRock you suggested please.

*EDIT*
Ok i found out the that the Benq monitor i had seen was THIS for 7k

i found that price when i had gone to Lamington rd last week

^^7870 on a VS450 is not a good choice..

T

hmm then a FSP SAGA II 500watts ??? i dont understand but a 450 watts PSU is enough for 7870

Tarun said:

VS450 is not a 80+ certified & recommended only for entry level PCs..

T

hmmm its tough to get a PSU at that price hmmm

will a Seasonic 430 do ??? i would adjust the Cabby to Elite 310 or Bijli ?? what do you guys say ?

Tarun said:

Its not about the Watts buddy, but the current from the 12V rails that matters. The 12V rail of VS450 provides just 22A and you think that'll be sufficient to OC the 7870? At the same time SeaSonic S12 II 520's 12V rail can provide up to 40A and that's the bare minimum PSU for this rig.

And coming to the case, it is as important as any other performance components. The CM Elite 310 is poor in cooling as well as cable management. In that department NZXT Source 210 Elite wins by miles.

Compromising on these stuff just to grab the 7870 will surely result in an unbalanced rig.

Stick with this:-

No need to change this. You may opt for higher capacity HDD if you can/want, but that's about it.

This is more balanced,

Yeah, the 1333MHz RAM makes more sense. Perfectly balanced.

No problem.

i to agree anyways was just R&D and fun to fitt a 7870 in there

haha guys thanks for discussing these matters

Helped me a lot reading all those. I have already finalised the config, ~~the quotation will come tomorrow~~ and will order after 3 days. Will get the quotation in the evening.

Also, i will go for the 1333MHz RAM as i have read a lot that 1600MHz doesn't give a performance boost at all.

Also, to buy 7870, I have to get better cabinet and better PSU which will extend the budget a lot. HD7850 is more than enough for my needs already.

Thank you all again who made this possible for me. Will update with High-Def pics of rig as soon as I buy it.

T

way to go then whats making you wait

Unfortunately I didn't get the quotation today, will probably get it tomorrow

Sunday, i am off to Bathinda for my AIEEE exam and will be updating about the config Monday onwards

The dealer has specified that he can arrange most of the components I listed him, so if there's something not available, I have to look for alternatives also.

You guys know what? I had bought Battlefield 3 Limited Edition around 3 months back, and haven't played it a single time!

So I am really really eager to buy my PC in the course of coming 2-3 days coz I can't wait anymore.

Guys buying the following components tomorrow :lol:

--> Suggest me a good cabinet. Budget is around 4K. If the investment is NOT worth it, suggest me a cheaper one (I am skeptical about the looks too, so keep that in mind) and I'll buy a CM TX3 Cooler for the rest of my money. The blacklist for Cabinets are - CM 430/431/301/301 Plus. I don't like these cabinets much, totally by seeing their looks. Suggest me a good looking + feature rich like cable management and pre installed fans. NZXT Source 210 was good looking and feature rich, but I can't seem to find it. I am also NOT open to online buying but if their's COD option then I can rethink about it. The cabinets in my mind are Corsair 300R and CM 690 (I dont know how much it costs but my dealer said its in budget, also tell how's it?)

^^Congratz buddy. Where did you buy the BenQ monitor from? And the price (shipping charges?)

Bro why don't u get NZXT Gamma with side panel under 2.7k

mention all the price for your parts buddy .

Updated my last post with prices. All the components were bought from Delhi by my dealer..eer friend. The prices are somewhat higher than what they are online, but I don't really care because i am getting full support from him. He is taking all the responsibility of RMAing anything which goes bad, thats why I opted to buy it locally through my friend.

Also, I didn't like the looks of all those budget cabinets like CM 430, 431, 311. NZXT was non available and gamma was a big no from my side coz of it's looks.

Awsome choice man! you wont regret it.

Thanks

err, not really. I already ordered the 300R from Flipkart, moreover, I am not comfortable in buying online unless it has cash on delivery option.
