my friend her is a serious gamer and wants to build a new gaming rig with no limitations of budget...he has kept aside about 200k:shock: for this PC....he has relatives in US so getting parts will not be a prob....kindly suggest a config that can kill all games and be future proof for at least the next4-5 years...

4-way SLI is possible, but only in the motherboard's having 4 or more x16 slots like this one :
Sid_gamer
May 6, 2010 at 11:56 AM
It's the EVGA X58 4x SLI, but practically a 4 way SLI rig will even cost more than 200K..
And it is an utter waste of money coz all the games he wants to run for 3-4 years wil run easily on a 2x SLI (or Crossfire-X) config....
So it is better if he goes on for a setup which has 2x ATI Radeon HD 5870 and motherboards like the ASUS Rampage 2 Extreme, Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD7, DFI Lanparty UT-X58-T3eH8....
But my personal choice will be the Rampage 2 Extreme...

This is not possible. Gaming technology will change. New Dx versions will come out. Better API processing would be required to harness the full potential. Ask your friend, what screen size (or multi-monitor) he desires. It all starts from the screen size (if budget is no issue). Then we can take it forward. It is too easy to suggest the E series Intel stuff, and a 3-way sli/xfire set up. Lets make this logical. Even with a moderate board, and good GPU he can scale most games. Will the user OC..? Also regarding parts from abroad, no use. Unless he wants specific case modding (sleeves, connectors) and water cooling kits. Rest to my knowledge, is easily available in India.

Yeah, it cannot be completely "future proof", so it's better to invest the money over time as necessary instead of an all in one go thing... also, 4 way SLI is overkill. A good rig does not have to be so... obscene.

he would prefer Dell 3007WFPHC LCD...its an excellent 30 inch lcd from DELL....also can a Sony Bravia be used as a screen for this rig(he was asking)will 2-way sli or crossfire run games like crysis, COD etc. easily on max settings on this screen??i have my doubts....yes he will overclock....and yes he was talking something about nitrogen cooling....heck im so confused

@Sid_gamer
Code:
It's the EVGA X58 4x SLI, but practically a 4 way SLI rig will even cost more than 200K..
Budget is not a problem here my friend...he is getting paid pretty well...i asked him to what amount he can extend his budget??He replied not more than 500k:banghead:....i just fell down from the sofa i was sitting on....serious gaming is ok....but 500k for a rig...you were right gopi_vbboy my friend is a freak;-)

@everyone helping me out
budget is no concern just build him a damn mean machine....yes im also excited cause ill be gaming with him too:-D....he lives right next door to me:lol:...

But what is the need of going overboard when he can have a great rig in a lot lesser amount of money, But still if he wants a show-off rig then it's his choice...

And yes he was talking something about nitrogen cooling....heck im so confused
Liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling is not a stable cooling solution, it is used mainly for setting world records in benchmarking (or testing)....And you cannot always run a PC by cooling it with LN2 because there is a lot of condensation which takes place around the LN2 Block, and this condensation can prove damaging to the components like the motherboard.....
Moreover it sometimes leads to processor freezing (as the temperature is well below minus 50 degrees)....

It will be better if he goes for water cooling rather than LN2 cooling, maybe he can take a Tri-Loop water cooling kit which will be more than sufficient for his rig....

What does he intend to do??
Game or run 5 servers on his machine??
The rig suggested to him is powerful enough to last for atleast 2.5/3 years without any kind of hiccup. :|
If he wants more performance just so that he can game,it will be a sheer bloody loss of money and nothing else. :|
And yeah,if he has some cash left,tell him to mail some cash to the accounts of the members here. xD :p

yah sid right. it is used only for setting world records. and if everything goes fine, than usually the motherboard goes bad (ram & video card follows). but what if something goes wrong?

ask him to save the rest of money for future
look there is nothing like GOD rig which will never show its age
even him he spends all of his money on the rig ,its true that it may become obsolete in 5 years or so
then what?
will he again spend 500k?
man!! it sounds stupid to me(being frank)
if he has that much of money left,ask him to donate it to some needy organizations:)

he wants something better!!!

what could be better than this configuration to play games! all the games present in the market will run more than smoothly on this....
but if he is so expert in hardware why doesn't he make his own rig...
moreover it is a myth that you will get "better" parts in the US...most of the stores in US sell made in china/taiwan hardware...same as they sell in India

he says he will buy 3 of those 30 inches dell moniters....join 3 5970s in crossfire...one for each monitor....and has zeroed on Onkyo 7.1 Home Theatre with amplifier.......for a cabinet he says he'll take either Lian -Li PC-A77 or Thermaltake SwordM LCS(the liquid cooling available with the case can be used to cool the gpu's)...though he's more inclined to take Thermaltake....2 Coolermaster Real Power Pro 1250W for his PSU....he was saying something about buying a dual socket motherboard(i didn't know that such mobos existed) and putting two core i7 980x on them...2 Thermaltake ProWater 850i for each of the proccys since he'll overclock them....rest he is still deciding...any suggestions for soundcard that matches this rig and will be able to support the sound system he has decided??

Any better case that can fit in all these parts....plz let me know..

yea he was talking about this only....and i can see from the slots that 3-way crossfire or even 4-way crossfire is a possibility with a quadro physics(what is that?)card....he was asking for the best ram available...planning to put 24GB:!: of it....

GOD.Why the injustics?? :\
Tell him to spend all his money then.If he wants to build a system that has never been built before(thats impossible since there are many geeky guys in this world richer than him),tell him to sell his house,get that EVGA motherboard,buy whatever number of insane GPU's that motherboard supports(4-8 or whatever 5970's or GTX 480's,or both),hotwire 3-4 Corsair/Tagan 1000W Smps's. Add a 1000mm fan to a thermaltake armour case(I don't think it supports it) spend the rest of his money on those insane speaker systems from klipsch and then sit and game in front of his house as his house gets auctioned off.

And yeah, he'll need to buy at least a 1800 Watts or greater PSU for that system....
coderunknown
May 7, 2010 at 8:13 PM
if he wants build most unique pc, better build it from prototypes & giving special orders for the rest. like:

Processor: Intel Core i9 1000X processor (100 cores, frictional) water cooled.
Mobo: Asus & Evga combined project. powered by Intel X99 chipset.
Ram: G.Skill 30Gb kit @ 3000Mhz, water cooled CL5.
HDD: 5 X Intel next gen X45M 1Tb SSD in Raid 0.
Graphics Card: 4 X ATI Radeon cards based on Southern Island architecture & H20 Cooled.
PSU: Custom built 2000W PSU @ 99% efficiency.
Cabby: Special Ordered Lian Li cabby.

well, i hope this will give one heck of a system. it'll go down only when DX11.1 or DX12 comes out. till than stay cool.

shouldn't. cause as far as i know, ATI 6 series (formerly Northern Islands later changed to Southern Islands Architecture) or so will be coming in later this year. and it'll be DX11. just a die shrink, at most. Nvidia will be stuck in Fermi for another year before thinking about its successor. so DX11 lives for now. at least until Windows 9 not out.

OP told his friend need a rig never been built before. so just gave him an idea of what to expect :smile: its not impossible. most of the parts i mentioned will be out by next year, except processor & a chipset.

@op, first... 2k 1 rig = sweet enough.

but, if you would have suggested him to purchase rig for 1.2k or something.. and invest the other in some money generating sources like stocks or gold. he can easily get another killer rig after 1.5 years.. when his rig will be kinda past generation.

we were all just confused how one can get all these parts in a day and assemble them
also never heard of running the professional and gaming cards simultaneously,thats why there was such of misunderstanding going on(however i knew everything and anything is possible in the world of computers)

Yes, we can digest the fact. And no one here is jealous either. It was just that, the configuration seemed illogical. That is about it. Till date I have never heard Quadro [nVidia] and HD5xxx [ATI] being used together. And the time for procurement was also less. That is it. Was it not transparent of us to raise our doubts -- which you have clarified and we understand. If you do not want to upload images that is your prerogative. It is not we are begging you either. Many such come to this forum. Take care.

Honestly I am doubting this now. How did he procure the water cooling kits so fast. Also how can Quadros and game series GPUs run together. Weird.

He built it in dreamland, thats it.

about the cfire with Nvidia card, have a look at this:

Only a person out of his freekin mind would go for a dual socket board,for normal gaming purpose where his 12 threads are not being used, i am pretty sure this is all bs..

Honestly this isnt a rig in real,only in dream.I think we all are fooled.I was wondered when I saw the budget of 2lac.Now he says its 6.23 lac.
6.23 lac for a PC? It might be a poorman's dream or else he may be a stupid millionaire

Dell already have done a CrossFire with to HD3870 in a 790i SLI, so its not something to get surprised if theres a way to connect a Nvidia & ATI card.

Thats because they have the right drivers and the "rights" to do so. Check the link i have given, its about HYBRID CFIRE , people have done 5870 + GTX275 (physx).....but why would some1 get a $3000 quadro (essentially a GTX280) on a gaming rig is just beyond me...
poor selection of memory (why 10GB ? get a 12GB Kit, many have it) ,8 256GB SSDs in RAID, sure dude, thats $6000 in that alone....no1 even remotely close to sane would do that...

@owner of this rig: If you really own it, please submit it to Guru 3D rig of the month, finally an indian would win it....

Honestly, that was a poor decision, buying that type of a PC, unless you are going for a guinness world record for the most powerful desktop PC or something. for gaming purpose, a PS3 would have sufficed. the interest earned on the money saved would have been enough to buy a new game every week. And there's no game out there which will refuse to run in its full glory on a simple SLI/crossfire setup with 2 highest end cards. So, I don't see what purpose could be served by such a PC.
Please save some electricity for the country by keeping that PC switched off!
