I Went To The Dealer He Gave This Configuration.

C2d 1.8 Ghz = Rs 6200
Asus Motherboard P5vdc = Rs 2450
Dynate 512 Mb Ddr2 Ram = 1150

Is This Configuration Correct ?

Is This Prices Are Correct ?

Is Ddr2 512 Mb Ram Enough For Vista ?

Are The Graphics Of This Mother Board Enough For Vista And Latest Games .

My Budget Is Reduced To 10k .

Any Good Offer's In Same Budget .

All Sudgestion Are Invited .


HOW MUCH SHOULD I GET FOR :

INTEL P4 1.7 GHZ
VIA CHIPSET MOTHERBOARD ( 478 SOCKET WITH 400 FSB )
256*2 = 512 MB SD RAM
LG COMBO DRIVE
SONY CD WRITER

AMD is very good for gaming.
go for PCIe slot card and atleast 300Gb hard disk, and a min of 1Gb DDR2 ram.

Hey just yesterday u asked these thigs in a separate thread and now u are for the same thing u are opening a new one...:confused:

*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56443&page=2

And i already told u,do not just go for a fast procie and below average components will give u no better performance at all.:(

Jut go for a AMD system for 10k and have much better experienxe due to more RAM and better integ graphics:D

Dont be stubborn to go for only C2D.:mad:

i can understand ur desire to go for the fastest system but i feel that....ah.....somthing is not going right here....

?Now for the Via chip[set i dont think Via's integ graphics are any good even for low level gaming.I m not sure about aero see about in vista compatibility or on mobo site if it supports aero theme.....

Or if u dont overclock,go for the cheapest intel based chipset i thnk 946G

if u dont wanna oc then buy a Intel original 945/946 mobo.they sell for bout 4k.if u wanna oc the least u sud get is a MSI P965NeoF,then u'll over shoot ur budget by a huge amount.

Don't go for VIA mobo.. Plz thats a request. One of my frnds is troubled constantly for it.

And one more thing.. Don't go for socket 478 based pcs.. They are kinda out of generation.. Get the latest. LGA775 will also do.
