Have the prices of 500GB HDDs been reduced recently?As far as i know,most internal 500GB HDDs still cost around Rs 3.8k.

Ya, now the prices have been decreased a little for hard disks.

500 gb hd for 2k, i could only wonder.

.... u seem to get everything very cheap ... 7950 at 20k, 500 gb hd at 2k ... lucky chap.

AFAIK, U can get a WD caviar blue 7200 rpm,sata 6gb/s for 3.5k ...

7950 costs around 19-20k in Nehru place.
AS I mentioned I dunno about HDD's(Haven't bought them since ages) I'm quoting the price that friend told me he's is gettin' for. :facepalm:

No, 500 GB is not available anywhere at 2K and neither 7950 at 19/20K. That is the price of HD 7870 in most places.

N

So the HDD prices are not coming down :'(

I am in wait for the prices to stabalize for HDD by holding my purchase

Thats what I ve been telling him ... but he says u get a 7950 @ 19k at Nehru place ... and its hard to believe .....

MSI R7950 is 20k- HD 7850 is 13k.5(1gb ddr5), HD 7870 is 17k(Just confirmed the prices).

Go to Nehru place if you still don't believe prices of these products.

If you ve confirmed then I wont argue .... Those prices are tempting man.
So nehru place is a better bargain than Lamington road :toast:

The price of HD 7870 might be 17-18K as in Kolkata, couple of shops are also offering that price for Sapphire HD 7870 but 7970 at 19K, really tempting. Nighthawk12, could you give me some pointer like shop name, any online retailer etc?

Well if you're good at bargaining ;p.
Btw the lowest you can get it for 20k not 19k.

And I will update you guys soon about shop(Whether he deals online or not), my friend is going to buy it HD 7950 soon like 1 to 2 weeks.

isn't core- i3 2120 better...found that it's just 200rs. more than i3 2100...

Yup it's better you can go for it.

V

the power edition 1 you suggested costs 9.3k...
i found msi amd r7770 gddr5 1gb at 8.3 (flipkart)...
and zotac nvidia gtx650 gddr5 1gb 8.6...
which 1's better??

Arey man, GTS 650 is a crap, it is just a overclocked GT 640 with 2 GB VRAM. Even hd 7750 performs better than it. Get MSI hd 7770 at 8.3K, performs similarly like a hd 6850 after new 12.11 beta driver release and some times better.

Power edition is the best.
Flipkart prices are generally higher than local prices so better check in local market first..

V

okay i'll check it then first...

V

i found power edition in the local market at 8.7k......
could you plz suggest another graphics card which costs less than 8k....coz it's going above budget...
