I m plan to buy amd 5600+ 780g chipset mobo
Now I m confuse when I go to amd site the clock speed and architecture is different
I see amd site 5600+ is 65nm with 95tdp but when I go thitwares.com & primeabgb they show different clock rate and 90nm processor
Can I get 65nm base processor in Mumbai ?

Look at the box ....Caption says " Energy Efficient "

Also its bar code reads ADO5600IAA6DO ---AMD Athlon™ X2 Dual-Core 65 W

This is the model u are looking for ...check with the AMD Website for more details [Box code]

just check the product completely b4 u buy it.u wont get cheated.just dont blindly believe wat the vendor says, do ur homework then buy.
BTW why r u investing so much to buy AMD when u can get E7200 + abit IP35-E for the same price?

amd 5600+ = 5500
780g + HD 3200igp +dx10 + pci-e 2.0 hdmi =4800

=>10000k

intel 7200 = 6000
p35 = 5000 + 8600gs = 2500

=< 13500
what u say about this ??

8600gs?? That's a really sutpid card. 8600GT is better.

I would go with the Intel config

1) E7200 : 6k
2) Abit IP35E : 5k
3) MSI NX8600GT 256MB : Rs.4.5k

Rs.15.5 in all and will be a damn good gaming config (not for hardcore gaming though)

After lot of discussions and reviews on the forum, I would say

1) If you have money to spend, don't look back. get Intel config
2) If you are on a tight budget, don't look ahead. Get AMD config.
