Hello guys,
this was my last thread-> *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/laptops-netbooks-tablets/138845-need-buy-laptop-help-needed-xd.html

That time i wanted to buy a laptop but after doing alot of search on net.. i changed my mind and now going to get new pc assembled by end of this week...:p

So, i was wondering if some 1 could provide me help with hardware :)

Also, i wanted to know is gtx580 is worth giving a try?? or should i go for some other card like gtx 570 or radeon 6950 nd save some money as i m not sure....please help me with this....:?::?:

I don't want to spend 2-3k on mouse or keyboard so...please give be best available processor, gfx, motherboard etc..

Lastly my budget is 90k but that doesn't mean i would happily spend alot money buying 50k processor or 40k gfx card on processor or on gfx card...i would be happier if i could get better hardware in less money...bas yaaro help karo i just need paise wasoool cheez..:cool:

I hope you guys understood wht i m looking for.. :p:p

Thanks in advance :cool:

Edit: I want to play games like Crysis 2, Brink, Black ops nd future games like modern warfare 3 nd battlefield 3 on high settings..

dude..please read properly wht i wrote :( i dnt want to spend my parents precious money spending 2k-3k on keyboard or 1.2k mouse pad man... is it not better to add those money on gfx, motherboard or processor ?

i understand man but good mouse and mouse pad make a difference to gaming. worth IMO.

ok if you dont want that costly mouse -
Logitech MX518 @ 1.4k

already proccy, mobo, gpu are top notch.
or you have option of GTX580 at 27k.

its you to decide finally.
i wanted to make it balanced in all aspects for gaming.

unrealboy, for good gaming you need a good mouse with higher DPI value. So get at least Logitech MX518 @ 1.3K. Before purchasing it even I was thinking like you but after playing some games I actually understood the value of a good mouse.

I think you can try Razer Cyclosa Keyboard Mouse gaming bundle available @ 2K. It offers very high performance by Price ratio.

For mouse pad you can go for Rajer Goliathus Small size Mouse pad @ 0.5K

When you are ready to spend 85k - 90k then try getting a SSD.

Some modifications from jassy's Config

IMO its wise enough to spend on 6970 2GB instead of GTX580 as it performs close & won't find much differences w.r.t to 1920 x 1080p gaming.

I also suggest this rig. yes even I feel sometimes spending 1.5k in a mousepad is stupid.

So its best that you select a keyboard and mouses of your own choice :)

EDIT: removed the SSD. You have saved 7k more

Well in that case, going for GTX 570 @ 18.5k won't make a difference to game at 1920x1080 either.

Heck at fullhd, a factory overclocked gtx 560 @ 13.5k is sufficient as well. It can be slied later.

^^ games like metro 2033 & Crysis are card killers.

6970 ~ 570 > 6970 2gb > 580

570 is only limited w.r.t the memory size otherwise that even is not a bad option to go with.
thetechfreak
May 6, 2011 at 11:10 AM
OP, I realy suggest you to get 6970 2 GB. You will love it. It will run the nicest of games(in graphics) in frame rates that I cant think of :p

anyway, the 560 ti isnt a bad card. The thing will be that you will be less future proof

570 is only limited w.r.t the memory size otherwise that even is not a bad option to go with.

I think its a good option to go with. Framebuffer more than 1gb does not matter at fullhd resolutions even for shader intensive games like crysis and metro 2033.

570 and 6970 are equivalent performers at fullhd even with antialiasing on. But higher than this, 6970 pulls a bit ahead owing to its extra vram. At fullhd, the difference isn't noticiable at all and in some cases 570 also goes past.

Now if you refer some previous articles, fermi 2.0 seems to be performing better in sandybridge platform than x58. There has been reports of some performance increments. Some are marginal and some are significant. It suits the sandybridge architecture more than the previous nehalem ones.

Hardocp had to redo their review on a sandybridge platform to compare a 580 trisli and 6990+6970 trifire. Read that thoughrougly. The results that came out were inexplicable and had something to do with the cpu. Amd cards performed more or less the same as previous tests whereas nvidia cards performed a lot better than they did in an i7 920 based rig.

Check it out in the graphics card section.
