1. Specify the resolution of the monitor.
2. Is your friend a retard?
3. Overclocking doesn't mean it'll heat up the CPU/GPU. You just need a good cooler.
4. Why would BSOD occur?
5. More fans are better if you want good airflow.
6. Here's the rig-

Intel Xeon E3 1230 V3 ~17.5k
Gigabyte GA-B85-D3H ~5.5k
R9 290 ~30k
HyperBlueX 2x4GB ~ 5.5k
Seasonic S12II 620 W ~ 5.5k
Corsair 300R ~ 4.5k
WD Black 1TB ~5.5k

You can buy a San Disk 32GB SSD ~2k for faster booting if you want

i5 4570 (14500)
CM Hyper 101 (1500)
Asus H87M-E (7900)
Kingston HyperX 4 GB 1600 MHz (2725)
WD Blue 500 GB (3100)
Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4 GB (32800)
Seasonic S12II 620 (5700)
Deepcool Teressect (2700)

Thank you very much

My monitor::hp 20555 sh 249

I dont exactly understood him; would purchasing San Disk 32GB SSD make alot differnce (i dont care if it boot slower)
He suggested me to purchase amd 9590 processor
and how about using 8gb RAM (8x1) later i could upgrade it to 16 GB (if that wont make any differnce in performance)

Sorry for dumb question but
i7 4770k inculdes integrated graphics and if i purchase a motherboard with/without integrated graphics would that make any differnce to the additional Graphics card i add ??

and i want 8GB ram (8x1) will (4x2) make any differnce ?
Thanks

if you do not overclock , you dont need a 'K' series cpu like 4770k/ 4670k. none of the mobo compatible with intel haswell processor(including 4770k and the like) come with igpu. either you have to use the igpu onto the cpu itself or a dedicated gpu. igpu is meaningless for gaming. better aim for a good dedicated gpu. also for gaming, i5 and i7 provides similar performance characteristics,period.
2x4gb will be slightly better. make sure you opt for identical sticks of ram.

Hey
i see FX 9590 is 5GHZ 8 core so it should be way faster then 3.4 GHZ quad core I7 4770k ?? Right??

i'm stuck with FX 9590 and i7 4770k

watchdogs PC recommended requirements are intel i7 3370k processor (i want it mostly for gaming)
so which one is better according to you so that icould easily run games like watchdogs

i7 4770k with R9 280X 3 GB
or
i5 4750 with R9 280X 3 GB
or
8350 FX with R9 280X 3 GB
or
9590 FX with R9 280X 3 GB

THANKS

Your monitor is a 20" one,right? Better upgrade to a full HD monitor like dell s2240l or aoc i2269vwm/i2369vm. And configs on post # 4 & 5 are both fine.

i also have a Full HD 32" Samsung 3D smart TV

just need to select one from these i7 4770k with R9 280X 3 GB
or
i5 4750 with R9 280X 3 GB
or
8350 FX with R9 280X 3 GB
or
9590 FX with R9 280X 3 GB

So you don't really wanna listen to us?

ok so first :facepalm:

for you.
and now,

>yes AMD 9590 is 4.7Ghz and octa core whereas i7 4770k is 3.4Ghz and quad core. But just so you know, those 8 cores are used not for heavy tasks such as gaming but video rendering application which use more processing power.

>R9 290 is way better than R9 280X

>maybe Watchdogs PC Requirements is i7 3370k but that doesnt mean it wont run on i5 4570 and Xeon E3 1230 V3(which is almost as same as i7 3370k)

> the 'k' CPU is only recommended if you plan to overclock, if you dont plan to overclock, then there's no need to buy it, there are better alternatives.

> stop asking your 'friend' for suggestions

or

if out of these option i have to choose provided you have enough money for rest of components i would choose i7 4770k with R9 280X 3 GB but the better decision would be to go with r9 290 with i5 4570.......

it has more monstrous gaming power than your combinations ......

as you can see from my sig that i own a i7 3770k i can tell you it doesn't make much difference which processor it is as it makes difference in gpu .......

you should listen to people who owns these stuff like @ripjinpk1 .......

Guys I think OP will finally go by his friend's suggestion.
@OP trust these guys. They know what they are suggesting. Look at the rig in my signature. After some optimization it is kicking Watch Dogs ass in ultra@1080p. So no need to go for a i7 just coz Watch Dogs recommended requirement is i7.

A game depends heavily on GPU and so getting a good GPU is a priority. Get the Sapphire r9 290 tri x eyes closed.

And yes, if you want to get VFM and good performance stop listening to your retarded friend

adityak469 said:

Yes, if HDD takes 30sec to boot, SSD takes 20 sec to boot, thus decreasing the boot time aka. fast boot

Alrigt thanks
How is the performance of your PC
heating and all?
also what is cost you ?

Performance awesome. Temps are good. In these hot days GPU has gone to near about 75 degrees at demanding games and CPU is also hovering near the same temperatures.
My rig cost was near about 83k, but components price has come down a little bit now.

Updated:
FYI the FX9590 has a TDP of 220 W. And as you are afraid of overheating and also want only two fans in cabinet, this will let's say enable you to make omellete in your cabinet.

i like your Cabinet but its not available online

how many Fans have you added??
i'm getting things too costly online and locally even more costly then online

Are you referring to my present cabinet (phantom 410) or the previous one (guardian 921). Guardian is out of stock in most places and if you get the r9 290 tri x don't get the Guardian. The card is too long for the cabinet. Phantom 410 is available in Snapdeal, MD computers but has gone tad costlier.
Also if you are tight on budget don't go for a 6k cabinet. Instead focus on the other components.

For the components online try MD computers, Vedant computers, prime abgb. And for MD computers try emailing them. You might get a better price than what is listed in their website.

the current one cabinet (phantom 410)
it says SOLD OUT on snapdeal (7000rs)
where as it is available on ebay for 9000 different design NZXT Phantom 530 White | eBay

That's a altogether different model the eBay one. You will get cabinet better suited for your purpose in half the price. Go with Harshil's or aditya's suggestion. And if you absolutely want the 410 try the shops I mentioned earlier

Vendantcomputers do have that cabinet for 7000 or i'm gonna try it on lamington mumbai when i visit MUMBAI

but i'm stuck with the Processor and graphics
either i could get a better processor or graphics

i7 4770k with R9 280x
or
i5 4670k with R9 290

Why do you want an unlocked processor when you don't want to overclock? Get the better GPU ie i5 4670/4570 (either of them) with r9 290 tri x.
Which motherboard you will be buying? Post your final shortlist

ok i give up

OP do you understand that you dont need an unlocked processor like i7 4770k or i5 4670k?

Well before i didn't knew (K) is the unlocked version that can be overclocked (for better speed /performance)
so i'm thinking of getting the version that can be overclocked as the difference in prices is just 1000-2000 RS
if thats okay ?

I will be using most of same parts as you as you said your PC performance is good
dont wanna end up having a incompatibility issue or something

please tell me if there is any incompatibility or anything new in the parts

My motherboard will not reap the benefits of a K series processor. For overclocking you need a Z87 based motherboard and they are costlier than my model.

Get the 290. If required reduce the amount for the cabinet. No need to spend 7k on it by compromising on the GPU.

And most importantly don't buy I repeat don't buy that zebronics PSU. Who suggested that?
Get Antec VP650p at minimum.

Damn i'm on budget i will try to get the R9 290 its for 33000RS

will there be much difference by overclocking 4670k in performance ? or a 4670 is just fine?
Again my friend you can bash him

No overclocking will not bring much difference. Even an i5 4570 is fine.

As you have 70k budget I am modifying Harshil's config a little to fit it in your budget
i5 4570 (14500)
Gigabyte B85m D3H (5200)
Kingston HyperX 4 GB 1600 MHz (2725)
WD Blue 500 GB (3100)
Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4 GB (32800)
Antec VP650P (4500)
Deepcool Teressect (2700)
total: 65525
Add another 4GB RAM later or now if budget permits

Updated:
As 1TB WD Blue costs 3800 only it's better to go for this HDD. Opt for the Black if budget permits. And for RAM corsair Venegeance or Kingston hyper X get whichever is cheaper

if you can get i7 4770k+280x (23k+23k = 46k), then why cant an i5 4570 + sapphire r9 290 tri x (13.3k+32.8K) ?
you better keep a distance from that friend for suggestions.

Alright thanks a lot
just one more question
The i5 4570/4670 bottleneck R9 290 ?? or it will be fine?

and about the monitor
i already have a samsung 3D smart tv so for gaming; if need i'll replace my old monitor

i5 wont bottleneck 290.
for the monitor look at aoc i2369vm or dell u2312hm or u2412m

- - - Updated - - -

that tv can be used too,if you want.

Okay so the final list
plz tell if there needs to be any change

Good enough. For the HDD buy either WD Blue or Black. Don't buy any other color. Deepcool Tesseract, sorry for the typo earlier. And i think you will need to buy a couple of cabinet fans for the cabby as it comes with only one as far as I know.

i will recommend antec gx700 instead of tesseract. sapphire r9 290 is 30.5cm length and tesseract supports vga upto 31cm. i will prefer little more room just after gpu.

and how about the NZXT Phantom 530 ?? for sapphire r9 290 30.5cm

phantom 530 is a full tower case and is a very good cabinet.

Sorry to bring it up again but why this ??

Guys can you suggest me a motherboard with two (2) 1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x16 (PCIEX16)
for future if i need to add another Graphics card
as B85M D3Honly comes with 1??

I've bookmarked this thread by the title "effects of poor education system in India and lack of common sense".

i am pretty sure that r9 290 will last atleast 2-3 years with acceptable settings. after 3 years you can buy a single powerful card instead of crossfiring as they will available cheaper with less power consumption.

Exactly. And also if such need arises the motherboard is Crossfire compatible.and the difference of x4 and x16 will be negligible IMO then.

Well as i said in OP that i don't have any experience in building a new Gaming rig
what else do you expect from someone who never assembled a PC
I know it could be irritating but
You could have just helped me like others instead of being a smartass
Most of ppl in India would either purchase a pre built PC or Macbook or PS 4 or Xbox 1 instead of assembling a PC and waste money

Alright thanks a lot guys
i'll have already mailed mdcomputer and vedantcomputer and contacted shops at Lamington road mumbai

that actually is a waste of money when gaming configs are concerned.

K series processor should be ONLY bought with a Z87 or Z series motherboard.

And, K series processor and Z87 motherboards should be only bought if you are overclocking.

Otherwise in any other case, you are wasting your money.

although you dont need an overclockable board, this is a good price for a z97 board Buy Online MSI Z97 PC Mate 32GB DDR3 Intel Motherboard in india. it will support upcoming boradwell cpu too.

depends on the board. many z97/h97 boards are still not available. that msi board is absolutely fine for your non overclockable cpu. it can be used to overclock too with a supported cpu

isnt there any other cheap motherboard
becoz in that case shouldn't i go with a OCockable CPU like 4670k ?? or is Xeon 1230v3 more future proof becoz of HT??(i only want it for Gaming thats itZ)

the reason i suggested z97 is because it is available for 8k ,the same price as h87. now for your xeon, there is no need to have an overclockable board(like chipset based on z97/z87). but since both chipsets(h87 & z97) are available at same price, then why not a z97? you get additional feature of overclocking while your cpu does not support it. but how ever it supports upcoming broadwell cpu and what if you decide to add a broadwell overclockable cpu later? then that board comes handy.
if you do not plan onto overclocking, then there is no need to get K series cpu like i5 4570k/4670k.

which one is better according to you for future gaming

an overclockable i5 4670k or a Xeon 1230v3 with HT ??? (as they say future games may support 8 core)

(as i'm already getting a OC mobo)

i would go with xeon e3 1230v3. remember it does not have igpu. so you must always use a dedicated gpu with it.

either way i was going to get dedicated GPU

i hope i will get the MSI Z97 PC Mate 32GB DDR3 easily in MUMBAI

so my final rig ::

Power Supply: Seasonic 650
Cabinet: NZXT Phatom 410/530

fine there. get 2 X 4gb sets of ram. if you are planning to add another 8gb later, then stick to a single 8gb for now.

rijinpk1 said:

thanks

the R9 290 card will fit perfectly in NZXT Phatom 410 or 530 right ?

[MENTION=154031]nomad47[/MENTION] uses 290 on a phantom 410. 530 is new in this segment and is a full tower case compared to mid tower 410. my pick will be 530 among those two.

In the phantom 410 you will have to remove a HDD cage to install the 290. Removal is really easy as the cage is modular. In the 530 there is no need for removal of the HDD cage. However 410 comes with 3 fans and also there is a side panel fan slot along with others. The 530 comes with 2 fans. You can't go wrong with either of it. Choose whichever design you like best. And the phantom 410 price has shot up above 7k.
SO it is not really cost effective.

guys what do you think about this setup ??
its more future proof but really above my budget

Processor: Intel 4770k
MotherBoard: MSI Z97 PC Mate 32GB DDR3
Ram: Corsair Vengeance (8x1) GB DDR3 RAM 1600 MHz
Storage: 1TB WD Blue
Graphics card: Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4 GB
Power Supply: Seasonic 650
Cabinet: NZXT Phatom 410

why 4770k?? instead of phantom 410(since the price is around 7k), you can consider corsair 400r.

how can you expect similar performance with different gpus? post the links of 4670k and xeon e3 1230v3 with watchdogs where yo saw the fps difference . xeon e3 1230v3 is a capable cpu.

i hope the r9 290 wont require any kind of air or water cooling system

tri x itself is a good cooler.

The tri x cooler is mounted on a reference r9 290. AMD has designed the 290 series to withstand temperature in the range of 90 degrees. And the tri x cooler is really good. The card does not reach 90. So don't worry about cooling

there is no need to get a K series cpu if you dont overclock. it will be a waste to pair it with a non z87/z97 chipset based motherboards.

Okay, let me try to make this clear to OP one last time:

> If you aren't overclocking, you don't need a K processor.

> If you aren't overclocking, you don't need a Z series chipset motherboard.

> Xeon E3 1230 v3 is just an i7 4770 without the igp.

> Xeon E3 1230 v3 costs 17.6k.

> i7 4770 costs ~20k and i7 4770k costs 24k.

What's with this latest trend of buying a Xeon E3 for desktops? Hate the Integrated Graphics too much?

The reason why Xeon E3 has no IGP is, because you put it in servers and usually you don't need a screen.

Better get i7-4770 + H87 or i7-4770K + Z87/Z97. What will you do during the period your discrete GPU goes bad? Spend Rs. 3000 more on a back-up GPU?

It makes no sense to buy a Z series motherboard with a processor that can't be overclocked. Buying Z87/Z97 with XEON E3 and i7-4770 makes NO SENSE. IT IS WASTE OF MONEY.

If you want to buy Z87/Z97 motherboard, buy i7-4770K. NOTHING ELSE.

First of all thank you all for helping me
It gets a lot confusing for me

first of all i need a mobo that will support new broadwell chip and/or crossfire

and i got both these features in that Msi Z97 mobo

that made me switch to i7 4770k as after all it was a overclockable mobo so a OClockable CPU for that

and the price difference bettwen
Xeon and i7 chip is 3000 so if im already getting that overclockable Mobo shouldnt i get the OC CPU ?

is the difference between
i5 4670 and Xeon 1230v3 that much different when running A game like watch dogs that uses 8 core ??

Again i want this PC for only Gaming and if OVerclocking gets me better performance the so be it i will overclock too and purchase a i5 4670K

or if the Xeon 1230v3 is better then Overclocking i5 4670k for games like watch dogs that use 8 core
the ill go with the xeon

T

the effect of a CPU in a game is 20% compared to that of a GPU which effects the game FPS by 80%. This is a rough approximation.
So, u spend 4000rs xtra for a cpu u will see an improvement of 3-5 FPS whereas invest the same thing in a GPU it wil be 10-15 FPS.
SO IS IT WORTH IT TO BUY A COSTLY CPU FOR MAX IMPROVEMENT OF 5 FPS WHEN U ARE ON BUDGET.

cydialover1 said:

yes, that is exactly what everybody here is saying.

Get i7-4770K with a Z87/Z97 motherboard. Get this only. You also have the budget.

If you decide to save money, then get i5-4670K. K is important.

As far as gaming performance is concerned, there is virtually NO difference between an i5 and i7 like teja8 said.

What is it about that if a K processor bottlenecks your GPU then u can overclock it to work perfectly with the GPU
what if in any chance a locked CPU like Xeon (i know it wont but just in case) bottlenecks the GPU??

Even an i3 2100 doesn't bottleneck a gtx 760, let alone the possibility of xeon bottlenecking 290. It just wont.

you should only worry about the gpu being bottlenecked. that xeon will handle two r9 290x in crossfire easily.

i dont think an overcloked i5 4670k will bring miracles in fps. the reason is , it will be running around 3.8Ghz in turbo and maximum you will do on a decent air cooler will be 4.4ghz. that 0.6ghz bump wont even provide you a 10 fps margin roughly.Intel Core i5-4670K Gaming Performance | bit-tech.net on the other hand xeon has hyperthreading support which may come handy in 'future' games.

unless it is available in decent price.. i dont think somebody wanna spend 12k+ on an h87/h97 mobo. on the other hand if z97 mobo gets cheaper(suggested one is 8k here), there is nothing wrong to get it either.

Nothing wrong there, but this guy has the budget.

What I'm simply echoing is the problem which I am facing. I've moved HD 6950 into my secondary system here in Bangalore. At home in Delhi, I don't have display ports on P8Z68 Deluxe. Plus, Quick Sync is really good for encoding videos quickly which Xeon without IGP doesn't have.

ico said:

none of the 9XX series motherboards comes with igpu including 990x,990fx and 970. and those with igpu support is very older gen motherboards, not really recommended for newer cpus like fx 6300.

well i really dont care about the time taken to other processes even if it is double all i care about the game running at the max settings with good performance
seeming that Xeon HT would be helpful in future

i7-4770 and i7-4770K also have HyperThreading.

If anything they are, they're better than Xeon because of the Integrated Graphics and Quick Sync to encode videos.

if im getting the Z97 by speding more 3000 i can get the i7 4770k

would it be worth it ?? or xeon is more then enuf

as
4770k > 4770 > Xeon 1230v3 > i5 4670k?

> 4770k > 4770 = Xeon 1230v3 > i5 4670k

> Xeon is enough. You won;t gain anything by overcloking anyways. Get some accessories instead for that 3k.

Im getting the Xeon only now thats it
if i think about getting the 4770k then i think about why not the Devils canyon 4790k haha

u just cant get enough

i will use the old one wireless logitec keyboard and mouse and for the Screen i already have rhis Hp monitor that supports DVi/VGa or i can also use my Samsung 3D smart TV

Wireless inputs are worst for gaming. Lag and everything.

well what i did was tat i was low on budget had 70k just like you but still i went through and bought 3770k and z77 mobo skipped the gpu for a year and later got 280x instead of 7950 which people were suggesting me that time..........

None of that makes sense here.

Guys what do think of the Xeon 1230v2 ??
its way cheaper about 4000Rs cheap and you can overclock it to 3.8 GHz ??
as after all im getting a OC mobo

whats the diff betwen V2 and V3

ico said:
i7-4770 and i7-4770K also have HyperThreading. If anything they are, they're better than Xeon because of the Integrated Graphics and Quick Sync to encode videos.

Anything you buy, you're most likely to be fine with it. You don't have to care. It's your money.

in that case op can go with xeon e3 1245 v3 which has hyperthreading and igpu and costs 19k where as i7 4770 is around 21k.

v2 is based on older ivybridge architecture. v3 is newer haswell based.you might face for the availability of the motherboards for v2 and it is not really recommended to go with older gen chipsets. ask about v3 version locally .you might get it cheaper.

i contacted locally but they dont have Xeon 1230v2 nor v3

just in case if i dont get either
does the i7 4770k work with this setup already ?? like the 620 W PsU ??

MotherBoard: MSI Z97 Mate
Ram: Corsair Vengeance (8x1) GB DDR3 RAM 1600 MHz
Storage: 1TB WD Blue
Graphics card: Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4 GB
Power Supply: Seasonic 620
Cabinet: NZXT Phatom 410

the question is, will you really overclock??

Get it from theitdepot man. Why do you always come back to i7 4770 and 4770k? We've been explaining things from the last 3 pages and yet?

Overclocking is for enthusiasts. Mainly for people who want to experiment. As a gamer when the time for overclocking arises it would be the time to upgrade your CPU

C

rijinpk1 said:

yes
what ever gives batter performance
but if i get that 4770k i thibk i wont even need to overclock
and hey then overclocking is option for me as i already a OC mobo

do you need difference W PSU for Oc and no OC?

i7 4770k=i7 4770 =xeon 1230v3 at stock except the small clock difference(mere 100mhz).
overclocking helps when you are using your cpu heavily say for encoding works or so and save few minutes. for gaming you probably get less than 10 fps(most times not even close!) ,not really worth the money spend considering its 24k price and the need for an extra decent cooler which costs 4k+. that makes 28K and a huge bump from xeon's 17.6k!

no i mean just in case if i dont get that xeon cpu
anyway will i still be able to run the pc if the GPU card fails with Xeon 1230v3 and Msi pc mate z97???

Instead of asking what to do if you don't get the xeon first check availability at theitdepot. If the graphic card fails you'll be able to run the pc but won't get any display as there is no igp. It doesn't depend on the motherboard.

you need to get a dedicated gpu, in that case.

Aw crap

well i think that wont happen as i think r9 290 is really a good card
or i will easily get a video card temp for about 500 rs i guess
anyways ill be going to mumbai for purchasing in a week or two

used one will be selling for dirt cheap. for newer ones, you need to spend 1.7k at the minimum.
try to get quotes form as many as shops you can and analyze the prices there after. and dont forget to bargain

can tou give me the estimation ?? how much i should pay atleast for the specific part

cydialover1 said:

it is hard to guess. anyway, i assume the local prices would be roughly,
CPu: Xeon 1230V3 -17k-17.5k
MotherBoard: MSI Z97 Mate -8k
Ram: Corsair Vengeance (8x1) GB DDR3 RAM 1600 MHz-6k. try kingston hyperx blu or gskill ripjaws x as alternatives if the vengeance ram is too costlier. kingston might be available for 5.2k or so. so better opt for it.
Storage: 1TB WD Blue - 3.7k
Graphics card: Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4 GB -32-33k
Power Supply: Seasonic 620- 5.5k
Cabinet: NZXT Phatom 410- no idea here. price seems to be a bit unfair. try phantom 530. somebody here bought it for around 6k.

would that make a difference in current pc performace?

it will last 2 or 3 years easily. by that time you can buy a single powerful gpu at a lower cost than a 290 and with less power consumption too.

Okay
and there are two Seasonic 620W
should i get the modular one or the S12II one ??
well i like it to be organized ....

If you have the budget get the semi modular one. Else the S12 will do just fine

generally gigabyte boards have better support for hackintosh that too with selected boards. otherwise you will have to struggle a little bit. i am not too sure about other mobo, have a look at here

if they are priced similar, pick the OC version. else get the non-OC version and overlcock yourself when need arises.
