Intel i5 3450 + Gigabyte b75 - 15k
Corsair cxv2 430w - Rs 2.5k
Corsair value 4gb - Rs 2000
Nzxt gamma - Rs 2500
GTX 650 TI - Rs 10K
ASUS DVD rw 1k
Seagate 1 TB ext HDD @ 4.5K
Total 36.5K , if you cant spend this much , then dont buy any GFX card , save some money and get the gfx card later. The era of dual core is going to go. I could have easily suggested you a I3 which would come easily in your specified budget.

His actual budget is 32k + 4k for HDD . So I think he should be able to afford a decent GFX Card in that budget.
Dual-Core is a serious no , because of games like Crysis 3 and BF3 , etc uses more than that.

For a GPU in respect to your specified budget at the moment take a look at t he HD7790 over the GTX650Ti for Rs 700 more. Overclocking this card does wonders.

Do you mean gamepad?
If you are into flight simulators and need a flight controller joystick, what is your budget?

Instead of hd 7790 wait for 650ti boost 1gb or get the 2gb version for 11.2k

Hi, sorry for the confusion total budget of 32 k is for processor+ MotherBoard + ram + PSU+ 1 tb internal HDD + Graphic card + cabinet+ dvd drive

PLease suggest a 1 TB External Hard disk and a joystick(like the one we use in PS3) for around 5k seperately..

I never have overclocked any component and I dont think I will ever...

Best joystick is xbox's usb one. Bought it at 1.2k, around a year back.
Best 1tb hdd is seagate barracuda/ toshiba.
Toshiba has 5 year warranty and seagate is faster

Anyways op wait for 650ti boost 1gb gddr5. Its performance will be far greater than hd 7790 at same price.

Apr 9, 2013 at 1:10 PM
The boost that you mentioned available for Rs 11.2K:rofl:

Contribution:facepalm:

How many typos will yo do? Noctua to Boost to confusing people with 670Sli and comparing i5 multithread with FX multithread tasks.LOL

Toshiba has 5 year warranty and seagate is faster

Read about 650ti boost on flipkart. Sorry posted less by a grand.

Could you please link which Toshiba External HDD is available with 5 years warranty. That would be amazing!!!!
V
Apr 9, 2013 at 1:25 PM
I have already provided that link in previous threads. Do you differ that 670sli cant be done in 140k or isnt its bandwidth a huge positive comparedto 660ti.
I never said 11.2k was a typo, but noctua was and it wasnt a big one!!
And what do you aim i3 not fit for gaming while fx is just because of crysis 3. Well sc2 and skyrim are cpu heavy too and i3 performs a lot better than fx 8350 in those games.
+ b75 vrm problems lol!!
Rst and srt serious advantages, windows 8 has inbuilt caching too :)
I dont oppose every fx suggestion you should try to avoid contradicting nvidia and intel's. And anyways 650ti boost>> hd 7790 2gb or not. And you will see that 650ti boost 1gb will be around 11k only in a couple of weeks.

And am3+ boards dont have srt and rst so any amd config is waste?? Lol

We dont live in this forum on weak assumptions. Back up with solid evidence and nor Flipkart reviews LOL.
So what you say is Nvidia will price 650Ti/Amp and Boost all 3 at Rs 11000 !!!:rofl:
V
Apr 9, 2013 at 1:39 PM
I admitted my mistake with 2gb boost one. Amp are zotac exclusives I think. And nvidia has given 150$ pricetag for 1gb 650ti boost = hd 7790. So whats the price of hd 7790 you tell me, and that will be price for 650 ti boost. So in short I am not assuming the price tag of 650ti boost 1gb.

I dont make wild suggestions ,so I dont Know its not here with any retailers.So. But surely and certainly they are not gonna price 2 of them (Ti/BOOST) for Rs 11000, will they?
V
Apr 9, 2013 at 2:09 PM
Which 2 amp edition is zotac exclusive. If need be it will get a pricecut. But nvidia's suggested price cant be wrong. I would wait even one month, there is so much diff between them.
And giving you the link for 5yr warranty wait a min.

He wanted a 1TB Extrenal and you are refering to a 1TB internal!!!!:-?

More over dont go bt Cost to Cost /Flipkart product info/referrals,never. Rashi imports them and gives 3 years warranty. The Enterprise class from Toshiba are expensive and Im not aware of their warranty set.

Apr 9, 2013 at 2:29 PM
Sorry :( I should have fought over pm's but then op would have gotten confused between b75 and h77 and bcos of it, had he downgraded from a 650ti boost 1gb to hd 7770, it would have costed him dearly.

Apr 9, 2013 at 2:33 PM
Thats where you are getting it wrong. Its not a fight its correction over spreading wrong information. For eg the HDD you specified him is internal but he wanted an Extrenal.Thats what it is. NO its not about PM or one UP over the other.

Incinerator, just keep your rage in a little check :) and vaibhavs800, while posting or suggesting something to OP, be careful about the fidelity of those information...don't forget that your suggestion is going to play a part on OP's decision. Also please don't be misguided by reviews in sites like Flipkart or any other Online shops, go through some proper sites which are very much reliable.

Nvidia launches GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST for Rs 11,999

Yup its available, fancy versions are being rolled now. And normal ones are hitting next week. As I said incinerator I read that price somewhere ;) looks like I was right.

I dont think so, today tech2 reviewed hd 7790 and raydon commented that 650ti boost 2gb will be priced marginally above
And even helped a fellow commenter. He seriously thinks that its going to retail around 12k and he already has that gpu and is making a review. So obviously he knows more than us. ;)

You answered yourself or you are contradicting yourself :-?

Let it come out dont jump the gun. I will still stick to my statement that it will not retail for Rs 11,200 as you had mentioned.

I mentioned that I saw that on tech 2 I think and I was right. And I am sure 1gb one will retail at that price.

If You are willling to purchase a GPU GUess you may be interested in FORSA GEFORCE GTX 560 1 GB
Core Clock 810MHz
Memory Clock 4000MHz
Memory Interface 256bit


If suppose you are so much willing to pay 11.2 for a 650 ti boost
Then why not 11.5 k for a GTX 560 ?

You can check the deal here Forsa GeForce GTX 560 1 GB - Hardwire.in
V
Apr 10, 2013 at 10:24 AM
11.5k for a gtx 560 is quite high. 560 ti were selling for 12k after hd 7850 came into market. After reading many reviews I came to the conclusion that 650ti boost is very slightly less powerful than hd 7850 and if nvidia's press release is right it will have a 30$ differnce between them ( both 1gb). So it makes it the bestbidget gpu and as tech2.com said while reviewing hd7790 being shadowed by 650ti. Lets just not jump to conclusions and wait for a week :-D
