Congos krishnandu.sarkar nice rig you've got. Which CM Cabinet it is?

BTW, You should have compress image using picshrink before uploading photos. It took me a long time to download.

Congrats on your new rig.

I've a few queries about the rig..
1. From which shop(s) did you purchase the components?

Whoa congrats krishnandu :). You have shot very high res pictures mate. Finally you settled for intel & it seems that is a very good decision taking current scenario into account.

It will be great if you post individual prices of the components purchased mate.:)

Congrats mate.... ALL the BEST

So How is your Intel Board Doing? Which OS you are running..? Also what's the Backup you are getting with 600va or Didn't check it yet?

Anyways Enjoy your new Rig...:)

It's CM 350

Thanks, I shrinked the pics. :)

So How is your Intel Board Doing? Which OS you are running..? Also what's the Backup you are getting with 600va or Didn't check it yet?

It's doing good so far.

I'm running Win 7 64bit.

Didn't checked the backup. Will try today ;)

Thanks everyone :D

I think you need to check again.. It's massive resolution for images.. Resize them somewhere between 900-1200.. It's enough to have a look.
krishnandu.sarkar

Yes, actually I didn't lowered down the resolution, but I degraded the quality.

Yes, price updates are from Arihant.

I didn't got HDD, as the HDD prices are high, I'm using my old WD 160GB.

u have covered all the components in photos..nice

*ahem* & what happened to old system???
krishnandu.sarkar
Nov 21, 2011 at 3:07 PM
My uncle will be taking it. As I'm using the HDD from my old system, he'll buy a new HDD within few days, probably today ;) and after that he'll be using it.

So I'm really sorry, if I have promised / committed anyone to sell any parts.

Why have you gone for 6770 instead of 6850?

Only one word comes to mind: VFM (is it one word? ;)). Awesome pricing man, enjoy. :thumbs:


@sygeek: 6850 would cost significantly more than 6770, at least 3k more.
krishnandu.sarkar
Nov 24, 2011 at 11:49 PM
Thanks guys :)

@Sygeek MSI 6580 Cyclone was 9k. So as you can already guess, I was already running high. And I don't game too much. So 6770 almost runs all the games in HD (Correct me if I'm wrong) ;)

congrats krishnandu to have a nice rig like that and thanks for the cool pics ;-)

BTW, are you talking about Cm Excalibur Fans
Excalibur - Cooler Master - Leading Provider of Computer Case | Cooler | Power Supply
but they are much more costlier - I think the fan you have got is this :
Blue LED Silent Fan 120mm - Cooler Master - Leading Provider of Computer Case | Cooler | Power Supply
krishnandu.sarkar
Nov 26, 2011 at 8:37 AM
Thanks topgear :)

Yes, it's the not excalibur..!!

BTW all the credit goes to cilus, JS and others who helped a lot to set up on this rig :)

Thanks a lot guys....enjoying BF3 / Dirt3 @ 1920x1080, with everything set to high ;)

@Nipun Ya cabby is not judged for the PC, but it's not that small, regarding space it's fine.

Nice Rig, Good pricing

Can you post a picture of de voltage diagram on ur PSU.

Is it Sufficient for HD 6850 with i3/i5? Amp in 12V rail?
krishnandu.sarkar
Nov 30, 2011 at 1:10 AM
Why don't you google it out??

I need to open the cabby again for that actually.

And yes it can handle 6850 + i5 SB, I considered 6850 Cyclone before 6770.

If you're ready to spend 2.5k on a mousepad the Ironclad (aluminium hard mat) is a good one I hear.

If you want something durable and cheaper, with better support. go for Logitech. Razer products have 2 years of warranty but India distributors don't honor that, and the mice are infamous on internet for failing. I have suffered a dead Razer mouse myself recently, dead in 1.5 years with 6 months of warranty left but nowhere to replace it.

Buying Logitech G300.

Logitech is serviced by Rashi so I bet krishnandu.sarkar would prefer to skip it.
And yes, there are many cases of razer mouse fails,ask Sarath, his mouse failed too..!:???:

Dec 5, 2011 at 1:08 PM
Logitech is service by both rashi and neoteric.Neoteric is 100times better than rashi.My Logitech mx518 is imported by neoteric, so they will provide the rma if it gets faulty.@Krish-Look for the mouse that imported by neoteric not rashi.
tarey_g
tarey_g #57
Dec 5, 2011 at 6:05 PM
Yes its important to check the importer/distributor. Rashi may not be the official distributor for logitech in India hence they suck when it comes to RMA (Same happened to be , my distributor was 'Acro Engineering' for Razer mouse, which I came to know later was not the official one).

Check the company site for official distributors before buying, or the company itself will not honor the warranty.
