and will it give good performance as compared to a pair of two gb rams???

if it costs like that then, i'm gonna buy one 4 gb now and another one after 2 -3 months...

And I don't have any idea regarding ur second question...

M

k
i'll buy a new one... in th second ques..
and the configs complete now..
thanks alll...

i just want the prices now:
proccy : i5 2400 sandybridge
mobo : GIGABYTE GA-H61M-D2P-B3
cabby : nzxt gamma
ram : 4 gb (please quote company)
hdd : seagate 500 gb 7000 rpm
disk drive : lg dvd writer 22x sata
psu : not yet chosen..

I already quoted 'em. Check previous posts. And refer local shops

yep, corsair CX400 is what he should opt for - it will handle his rig well .

M

k then..
the rigs fixed..
now i wanted to know does the cpu come with fan??
and does the cabby (nzxt gamma) come with fans?? and how much...
which fans are good??? means what size???? 120 mm / 140 mm/ 80 mm????? others??
thanks

AFAIK, NZXT Gamma comes with a single rear 120mm fan, but you have the option to add 5 more - 2 at top, 2 at side and 1 at front. Regarding good fans look for their CFM value. For size, well it depends on your case and fan holes, what they can accommodate.

mastercool8695 said:

As far as i know ^^

Go with the rigs suggested here by the guys. Its stable and secure. Its always better to be safe than to be sorry.

You save one rupee while buying to get the cheapest deal and then you spend ten rupees due to its quality of material.

BTW whats you budget..

M

according to you which is the best 4 gb ram model according to performance, price, etc??

^^ G.Skill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL7D-8GBXH - comes in 2x 4GB dual channel kit and can go up to 2133Mhz ;-)

M

and will that work with the mobo??

and whats its price??

It should work the mobo but they are meant for performance rigs specially to the OCers ;-)

Price of :

F3-12800CL7D-8GBXH is Rs. 6.7k
F3-12800CL8D-8GBXM is Rs. 5.5k
F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL is Rs. 4.9K

M

definately not for me..
m buying a 4 gb ram.. which one should i buy and should i buy 2x 2 gb?? ddr3

it costs 5.8K I think, superb VFM, hey corsair vengeance 1600MHz can also be OCed to 2133MHz & also costs same

If I might...I wud jus want to advise against the DH61WW and vouch for DH67BL @ 5.4K...u gain USB3 support, 2*SATA3(6gbps)ports,2 extra RAM Slots,DVI+HDMI ports,an eSATA port...all for 1.8K...its worth dont u think?

Look it up here

M

yup..
so changed that also..
good now??

in my config..

please tell me any cpu which has better or same performance as e7500
that's not available now?

so you are reccomending intel mobo ?

proccy : i5 2400 sandybridge : 9200
mobo : DH67BL : 5400
cabby : old one.. (no issue here.. may purchase a new one..)
ram : 4 gb (please quote company) :
hdd : seagate 1 tb (please quote model) :
disk drive : lg dvd writer 22x sata: 800
psu : not yet chosen.. (choose one for long lasting and also for performance.)
total :

what is the budget???

M

i wanna change the proccy..(i think its a bit too good for me..
?? nyways how much will be its price near about november??? (i'hv ran out of money now.. will buy at that time of the year..)

hell with the budget haha :rofl:

just kidding..
just tell me any cpu which is available now and is similar in clock speed, performance..etc..) to e 7500..

In Tom's Hardware review Vengeance did not manage to pass the stability test under 2133 Mhz. BTW, can you tell me where G.Skill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL7D-8GBXH is selling at 5.8k ??

mastercool8695 said:

There no CPU available at that price which can match the performance of i5 2400. So this should what you get ;-)

proccy : i5 2400 sandybridge : 9200
mobo : Intel DH67VR-B3 : 4700
cabby : old one.. (no issue here.. may purchase a new one..)
ram : 4 gb (please quote company) : G.Skill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL : 2600
hdd : seagate 1 tb (please quote model) : Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS 1TB @ 2650
disk drive : lg dvd writer 22x sata: 800
psu : Corsair VX450W @ 3.4/3.8k (choose one for long lasting and also for performance.)
total : You should count it ;-)

Well, the i5 2400 performs very good.

Downside, no overclocking. Maybe 100 Mhz, thats just about it.

i was not about i5 2400.. :shock:

i was askin any cpu like e7500 ..not i5 2400.. as i think that i5 2400 is a bit too good for me...

please reply guys..

T

Get i3-2100. @ same price performs better than e7500.

M

what??? then why shud i buy that..
i5 2400 better than i3 2100 ??? IDK PTM

so i5 2400 doesnt perform better than e7500 ???
if it is then why buy i3 2100 ??

^^ i5 performs better than i3. Is that hard to understand?

i3 2100 is a dual core with HT
i5 2400 is a quad core without HT

In the end both are 4 threaded CPUs. But the i5 2400 performs better thanks to 2 real cores at the disposal.

ANd both CPUs outperform C2D E7500.

why should you buy what??

Which comment make think that??

M

sorry..
i'm a noob.. i admit..

i'm in search for a proccy. which outperforms e7500 but i am not goin to get intel 990x ..
so now i think you have got the point..
a proccy which is better than e7500 (slightly) but better in performance is a must..

thanks for the help but i was banned some days back for sorta funny reason sum thingy like 'give me my money back"...or some thingy similar.. its very irritating..

^^ have a look at post no. 35 ;-)
