mobo for AMD 940 processor

ASUS has released new mobos supporting DDR3 memory and lot of features.

ASUS M4A78-PRO : should be around 8k
ASUS M4A78T-E: Should be around 10k

ddr3 r quite costly corsair 3gb ddr3 ram is costin abt 7500rs

should i go for ddr3 or ddr2 ram..??
is ddr3 prices supposed to go down...?????

I would say go for DDR2

My option would be Intel Core2Quad+DDR2+P45 chipset+HD4850

AMD athlon ??? 940 ???


ok its phenom - the mobo is ASUS M4A78T-E would best for OCing ,, go for it

i don't wanna go for intel one i already have a
i7 920
gigabyte x58
corsair 3gb 1600mhz ram
hd 4830

i want a AMD based comp for hardcore gamin

ya its AMD mobo only

give me a config on AMD base CPU for Only Gaming purpose upto 40,000

AMD Phenom X3 720 Black Edition - ~8K
Biostar 790GX CorssFireX motherboard - 6K
Transcend DDR2 800MHz Value RAM - 2GB + 2GB kit - ~4K

Remaining components - do you have anything else already with you ? like keyboard,mouse,monitor,PSU,gpu, etc from old rig usable here ?

MSI K9v2 790FX

This costs Rs. 9000

It supports :-
DDR2 1066MHz
CrossfireX 16x + CrossfireX 16x

Dual CF 16x ???
That makes it future proof for HD5870X2.
Wait a sec, is it SB750 southbridge ???

^^I think so yes, bcuz 790FX and 790GX both come with SB750.

wrong.

all early (aka cheap) 790FX boards had SB600.
not every board was revised with SB750.

how abt AMD X4 940....instead of x3 720

ya i have everything else ....

720 is better if you want to overclock. Its cheaper, supports DDR3 so you can upgrade motherboard later, is a champion overclocker and rocks at gaming since they are all dual core optimised anyway (2 cores for gaming and 1 core for OS makes 3-core kick ass).

^^ Hmm, yes you must be right.

Whatever you do, if you want overclocking, get a Black Edition CPU.

Non B.E. CPUs don't OC well as you cannot even increase the Voltage afaik.
