its a 17'crt flatron....5 years old.
I want to play games smoothly on my 42' LCD and watch Blueray and HD movies.....

As for keyboard.....i just got lucky with this keyboard....paid 450 bucks 7 years ago, and this stuff is awesome till date....I dont like buying any other keyboard....

I was thinking that ddr2 is getting old,CQ is phasing out....so i am a bit worried.....Hows the new amd X6 in performance with my Q9550?

I am worried...please suggest....Because recently i felt something bad while playing pop5 , inferno and batman....

I am worried with my rig...Please suggest.

your current proccy can give even i5 750 a tough match. no need change it. stick with it. as for DDR2. it doesn't matter much. 4Gb you have. use it & upgrade once Intel launches quad core based on Intel Sandy Bridge architecture or AMD Lynx architecture. till than your system is just in balance. no upgrade needed.

GTS250 is in balance with your system. or you can get 1 more GTS250 in SLI.

ok,will my pc handling games efficiently in the 42' LCD?

Please enlighten me about amd X6,Its in hype for few days.....

is this cabinets available in kolkata? which shop?

or will it be a good idea to get another totally seperate pc for the LCD , bcause currently my PC and LCD is placed in the adjacent room.In that case my sister can work her project in my existing set up while i watch movie or play games on next room, and will have my own space.

Then i will wait some more time for Intel Sandy Bridge architecture as suggested for upgradation my existing PC.

If i get a new PC Specifically for the 42' LCD as primary monitor (when Online) & TV (when offline) , what would be a solid rig with in 30-40K (amd X6 based).i will srart buying the parts one by one from this month and finish with in 2 month, as i already have a set running.Please enlighten me.

my board is not SLI....

but its based on P45. ok than i feel you got 2 option:

1. get a new board. just cheapest one that have support for SLI. get another GTS 250. & a new PSU.

2. you can just sell off your GTS250 & get a HD5770 or the about to release 460GTX (look at thermal carefully). this way you can use your existing PSU.

you can do it. get a new system. say a midrange. & upgrade your current system according to your needs. and use the discarded parts in the new PC to be used with the 19" monitor. this way you save both money & hassle.

about X6, there will be hardly any performance difference in games. instead you may get a couple of less FPS. cause both 1090T as well as C2Q 9550 are on even terms in terms of performance in games. all you need is a better graphics card.

PS: i'll advice don't waste money now. cause once Intel brings the price of i7 950 to ~14-15k, 1090T will look like a dumbass infront of it. than you'll get the same X6 @ 3.2Ghz for a mere 12k or maybe 10k. just wait till August.

Asus is bad. they have various issues. which takes RMA to solve.

well you can go for MSI 880G based one. one is there for 5.8-6k. mATX.
Gigabyte too have one 880G but cost slight more.
or can go for MSI 890GX based mobo. its mATX but Xfire ready. cost just below 8k.

if you go for HD5770, VX450W will be sufficient. can go for VX550. it'll allow you Xfire without risking your PSU. or a highend card.

AMD used to heat up. but the X6 are more cooler than X4 (phenom II). as AMD have done quite a lot of optimization to keep the heat low. also they need less power & OC potential is much more.

When i purchase it , i will buy either of the two ....Am i correct ?

MSI 890GXM-G65---7k (Approx)

My simple question is....

2.My current system boots from zero state to desktop in approx 23 seconds.What is the approx boot up time for the amd X6 from zero to desktop?
3.I have a hitch that if there is any lag time in the game on my 42'LCD then i will get a second GPU. Please enlighten me.

open up the cabby & show him the speed thats usually mentioned as code. or maybe clearly mentioned.

yup. velocity raptor spins at 10,000 rpm but complete waste of money for a average desktop. better use SSD if someone have serious "Need for Speed".

:shock: why on earth are you going for a 850W PSU from Corsair?

also don't go for XFX. they use stock AMD design = more heat, noise. add to it if something happens, Rashi will say "thanks for purchasing XFX. please contact XFX. thank you". :evil:

when you willing to pay so much, try get the MSI HD5850. the one with the Twin Frozer II cooler. do check the cabinet well. the 6 & 8 pin may prove to a big problem (if they decided place it on the end of the card). it may touch the HDD rack & making it very hard to plug in the power connectors.

as a side note, just wait for SMC to include GTX460 in their pricelist. than you can estimate the price of the card at your place. & plan accordingly to go either way.

Yes next year i will make it crossfire thats why i thought of 850W, or may be 1000W,but not yet confirmed....I dont want slow or lagging games on the LCD.

Actually first i will buy things that will not change for the next 3-5 years....Like i can reuse it ....Like cabinet,Another V8,Fans,Sound system,mouse(I own a razor mouse ! :))

well i not know about availability. than you got a 2nd option: CM 690.

flat cabinet? with flat cabinet, graphics card must be low profile. i.e. HD5550 or lower. or GT220 or lower. CM 100 or something.
