:) suggest a good pc processor & mobo combo under 18000 having onboard sound graphics and a good speed too ( 800 MHz FSB). the processor should have good speed too.
it may be AMD or INTEL :?:

First tell us what kind of applications do you intend to run.

Intel for AV encoding
AMD for gaming
Anything will do for general usage

Intel rig: 915 mobo+3.2 Ghz proccy

AMD rig: MSI RS480+Athlon64 3200+

Man go for Assu A8N Sli 10300\-
Athlon64 3000+ 8000\-
couple with
XfX 6600GT 128MB 10500\-
512Mb DDR x 2 5500\-

Superior for any kind of demand/performance....

* Nehru Place prices as given to me by different venders

I am also waitind for one of my freelance job cheques and going to buy the above for sure.

go for a8n-e based on the nforce 4 ultra chipset along with athlon 64 3200+ processor.......best combination. sli board is of no use unless u are into heavy graphic oriented applications
