Re: Friends Suggest Me a Best Configuration with best Performance for not more than 2

Yes everything with or without ups but may extend upto 25k.

Athlon II X2 240 2.8GHz @ 2.8k
Biostar TA785G3 HD @ 4.3k
Transcend 2GB DDR3 1333MHz C9 @ 2.9k
Samsung 500GB @ 2.1k (F3 Eco)
Zebronics Bijli @ 1.5K
LG 22X DVD @ 1.1k
18.5" LCD from Benq/Samsung. LG costly @ 6k or so.
Logitech keyboard/mouse set @ 0.6k
APC 550VA @ 1.9k

total: 23.2k. expect pay 23.5k. still i'll suggest get Athlon II X3 (anyone which fits into budget). and with rest of money, get speakers. 25k, done.

Did i miss anything?

One minor update. The price of AOC 19" TFT is 5.6k in Kolkata. So better opt for that monitor. It fits on your budget and it is a very good performer.

Re: Friends Suggest Me a Best Configuration with best Performance for not more than 2

+1 to Sam

For the monitor get BenQ G2020HD @ 6k

Well......Athlon II X4 620 @ 5k will fit in your budget. Otherwise as said by sam Athlon II X3 630 @ 4k will also come in your budget.

Well......for HDDI'm not sure about Samsung, so I would like to recommend 500 GB WD Blue @ 2.3k

:shock: why the heck are such good products available for such low price at Kolkata (only)? :sad: at my place all monitor prices sky high.

Ahem, where is the SMPS, dude?

I think Corsair CMPSU-400CX is not a bad choice and should be available @ 2.5k.

inside the cabby :grin:

Bijli comes with a default 450W PSU & for the above price & config, i not see any reason include a Corsair PSU, that cost 3k (where u got it for 2.5k?), as there isn't any graphics card.

Re: Friends Suggest Me a Best Configuration with best Performance for not more than 2

Guys what about phenom ii 555 be or Athlon x4 630 Both are 5k which one is best i think phenom will be better because it has 7 mb cache and for monitor i think aoc .will be good choice within this budget .

phenom II x2 555 is best at gaming
it means u shud go for it if u only wanna play games
and its 6mb l3 cache not 7mb

otherwise go for quad core or at least triple core cpu by AMD
it will be far more future proof than dual core:)

Re: Friends Suggest Me a Best Configuration with best Performance for not more than 2

i had a doubt phenom 555 has 6mb cache and Athlon x4 has 2mb cache whether this will perform better than phenom 555 and can you explain how if yes

6Mb L3 + 1Mb L2.

X2 555 is a X4 955 with 2 cores disabled (due to defects). however the chances that the 2 or at least 1 cores will work well. so my preference X2 555 over X4 630. however, if u not want take any risk of getting stuck to a dual core if for some reason the cores really defective, go for X4 630.

in terms of performance, it depends. if into into multitasking, X2 555 wil be behind X4 630. however if u into gaming at low cost, choose X2 555.

if Bio* not available, look for Asrock 785G based board(mATX. cause ATX one cost 6k). they will cost ~5k or maybe below. MSI 785GM E53 is another good choice. Asus & Gigabyte both will cost above of 5.5k. also ECS board u may look. i won't give particular model cause i not sure what u will find. just know if ECS, it should be part of its Black Series.

that mobo cost close to 6k. go for Biostar TA785G3 HD. it got 128Mb DDR3 onboard + is cheaper (4.3k)

Checked WD website the order of performance is Blue<Green<Black.

WD Caviar Blue
1 TB, SATA 3 Gb/s, 32 MB Cache, 7200 RPM

WD Caviar Green
2 TB, SATA 3 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache,7200 RPM

WD Caviar Black

For more details Check here *www.wdc.com/en/products/index.asp?cat=3

go for WDC Blue. WD Green is 15-25% slower than blue. avoid it.

performance difference
an experienced person told me that

Green cost 2.2k. blue cost 2.3k.

MA78GMT-USB3 16x, 8Ch.S, L, HDMi DDR3 5850

the 78GMT is 5850. cause its DDR3, the one i was referring to. whereas the 785GM is DDR2 only. so cost lot less.

*www.gigabyte.in/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=3275 check this one its ddr3. But i have a doubt that whether in delta page they are referring to this board because the T is missing in 785GMT but no other board like GM is listed in gigabyte website.
