HELLO,
recently i got some money to spent, i was thinking of making my normal pc into a gaming rig!
so i want your suggestion that where to spend my money as i am a console gamer from last 10yrs
i am having very little knowledge about all the pc stuffs!
thank you

BUDGET- 25000 INR

current system specs:

processor - intel core i5 2500k

motherbaord - intel dh67bl

ram - 4gb

monitor- acer 19inch lcd monitor (1440x900)

psu - cooler master thunder 500watt

cabinet- iball rider gaming cabinet

hardisk - 500gb

Get hd 7950 for 22k. Nzxt gamma for 2.5k. Later when you have enough money get a good z77 mobo,cooler and monitor.
Else get hd 7970 at 26.5k. Dont know whether CM thunder can handle that.

my psu is having only 1x6 pin so i dont know will it be enough to handle 7950?
and is my cabinet bad?
and if i sell my cabinet i can get more 2.5k so we can add that aswell.

My suggestion:-

1. Add another 4GB RAM. - 2.5k
2. Get a better PSU - Corsair 550 -3k
3.Better Cabinet - NZXT CABINET GAMMA - 2.6k
4.Nvida 660Ti - 18k

If you sell the cabinet, get some fans for cooling.

To change your setup into a gaming rig get the following first:

Zotac gtx 760-21k
Seasonic s12ii 520w-4.2k, you need to sell off your cm thunder psu.

Later, when you have the money, get a full hd monitor.

Sell your power supply and cabinet which may yield you 4.5k more. Get seasonic s12ii 520 at 4k
gamma at 2.5k
hd 7950 boost at 23k

Sell your power supply and cabinet which may yield you 4.5k more. Get seasonic s12ii 520 at 4k
gamma at 2.5k
hd 7950 boost at 23k

I think changing the motherboard, PSU and including a graphic card will do the job. Selling the parts to be upgraded can be sold which will yield another 3k at least.

Motherboard: Asus P8Z77 M pro (11000)
graphic card: Zotac GTX650ti (10000)
PSU: Seasonic S12II 430W (3600)

total: 24600

i think gtx 650ti will not be enough for upcoming games.

gtx 760 or 7950hd?

what about all these parts

PSU:

GTX760 for 1440x900 is not required IMO.
For cabinet, 300R will be good but will increase the budget.

i want to run gta5 in high settings but you guys know which one is better for me then which graphics card?

760 and 7950 are neck to neck. In some games one is better and falls behind the other in some other games. 7950 has an advantage that it has 3gb vram. Both can max out gta 5 on ultra at your screen resolution. Buy a full hd monitor when you have enough money.

i think i will go with gtx 760 because its cheaper and its newer
and will buy seasonic 520 watt
but confuse which cabinet to buy?

the black is here NZXT Source 210 Black with Window Cabinet
white on ebay is extremely costlier.
CM thunder is better than any el-cheapo psu but not upto the quality of other psu in the same price range. It may be able to handle gtx 760. I request any members who own this psu to comment on this.

Not a good upgrade from thunder to cx series. You should get the seasonic psu.I think you have enough money ,1.8k 2.5k=4.3k to buy antec gx700.

It is a good cabinet but lacks cable management options and will cost 3.5k. Corsair 200r has cable management options but not value for money at its price point. Get 300r or antec gx700. Try in local shops. You may get some nice cheap rates.

Here r the links for both mentioned Cabbi
