I'm building a new rig and have decided on the following configuration :-

Intel i7 920
Asus rampage II motherboard
2 GB Corsair DDR3 Ram at 1333mhz
Seagate 500 GB hard disk
razer copper head mouse
Logitech multimedia keyboard
NZXT guardian 920 cabinet
corsair 600w power supply
samsung 2033sw monitor
Nvidia GTX 260

I will be using it for gaming and multimedia.
Now I want to know then price of the motherboard, the processor, the ram and the GTX 260 in calcutta. I have been quoted 16000 for the mother board 14500 for the processor 5000 for the ram and 19000 for the graphic card. Is it Ok? or has someone got this at a cheaper rate?If so please let me know? I also wanted to know about any another mother board for i7 which is priced lower than 16k

Thank You

I heard that GTX 275 is available for 18k to 19k and it is a better card thatn GTX260.

go for 3Gb ram atleast and 1gig 1333MHz modules should cost 2.5k-3k

19k for gtx260 is very very very high. it's price is around 15k
gigabyte GA-EX58-DS4 for 15k
gigabyte GA-EX58-EXTREME for 20k
