processor------i7 2700k
motherboard---Asus P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3
graphics-------MSI N580GTX Twin Frozr II/OC
ram-----------3x Corsair Vengeance 4GB Single Module DDR3 Kit
psu-----------Cooler Master Silent Pro M 850W
case----------Cooler Master HAF 922 Chassis

please suggest me with same or new configuration

Processor - AMD FX 8150 @ 15k
Mobo - ASUS Sabertooth 990FX @ 14k
RAM - Gskill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL @ 3k
Graphic Card - ATI FirePro V5900 @ 32k
HDD - WD Blue 2TB @ 10k
PSU - Corsair HX850 @ 10k
Cabinet - Corsair Carbide 400R @ 5k
Monitor - BenQ GL2750HM @ 18k
UPS - APC 1.1KVA @ 4k
Total @ 111k

You can change the mobo to Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 which will cost you 9k. This will save you 5k. Spend them in a good CPU cooler like Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo (2k).

techinewbei - are you ok with softmods?!

R

^they are kinda hard to get..you got them to work on HD6000 series/GTX500 series cards?

no i dont wana try softmods

A Advice : Never Buy WD green ... they are bad they are not even performance hdds ,they are for some power saving thing and as OP is Using 3d apps a good and fast storage device is recommended better go for wd blue or seagate .

Nope I dont think taking chances with softmods is sane... u shud go for an HD 4800 card if u want to go that way -> Works everytime!

can u suggest a nvidia card within 30k in this place...
and i want 12gb of ram does Gskill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D suport triple channel?

thank you i will keep that in mind..thanq

If you don't want the WD Green 2TB, then buy two WD Blue 1TBs. It will cost you around 10000.

AMD FirePro GPUs are much better than Nvidia Quadro GPUs for non-gaming purposes. Stick with this.

12 GB kit is for X58 mobos that run triple channel. They have 6 slots. If you run those in a Z68 mobo (or any 1155 socket mobo), 2 sticks will be in dual channel and one will be in single channel. I recommend that you either have 2 sticks or 4.

can i go for ne high end gaming cards like gtx 580 or even 680 if possible in my budget because some where i read that there is not much noticble change in professional cards as compare to these high end gaming cards is it true ?
and does all the features of gamings card comes in professional cards.
i play a lot of games so it will b gud if i can find a card that can well suffice me in gaming and in my work also

That is not true.
Professional Cards will blow the socks off of a Radeon or a Geforce. Although in a detailed review I saw that RV770 based Firepro was only about 5-30% off the pace of a Radeon card.

Stick with pro card dude!

If you'll be gaming a lot as well, then I'd suggest you go for MSI R7970-2PMD3GD5 @33500. This is much better option than GTX680, since HD7970 has loads better computing performance and will play games at ultra settings and ultra resolutions too.

Only thing I suggest is Go for Intel CPU and Professional GPU Card..

Intel beats AMD in performance. As I have used both AMD and INTEL for that type of work(3D and Adobe Apps).

Gaming cards gives priority to speed while processing where as Professional cards give priority to quality.

Professional Cards Drivers are optimized to work more efficiently for that type of Apps.

Previous Generation cards(I only know about nvidia) still had good drivers(no way near professional cards) but current generation Drivers not good at all to work for that apps.

So go for intel cpu and Professional cards and as much ram as possible. one more thing I might suggest if affordable go for two monitor setup.. You know if you have used any of that apps then you need lot of screen space.

First primary monitor be with IPS panel with size 23-26 and second any ordinary 20 inch will also do.

And if you are in Sculpting and Digital Painting then you should also look for intuos or cintiq.

Thats a very good suggestion by clmlbx . +1 to him

one more suggestion buy 2 Hard disk, like if you want 2 TB then buy 1+1 TB as that will definitely have performance edge then single hard-disk plus I don't know if you want to use adobe video editing products but if you do then performance can be increased if you have scratch disk(another hard-disk then your primary one which has OS and app installed).

thanq that a gr8 hlp
ya im going with two monitor setups i have one already
yes i do lot of digital paintings and sculpting i was also looking for pen tablet
thanx for that suggestion.

ok i will hav two hard disks ,1TB each

wht iz cost of intuos or cintiq can u please specify the exact model no. ,i want a medium or large size .

well "intuos" is "Wacom company's" model name for professionals, cintiq is touch screen monitor to draw directly on screen. same from Wacom

Intuos will cost around 22-25K and cintiq cost around 1 lakh I believe, but price depends on size so if you buy smaller size (width) then it will be cheaper.

X79-UD3(16.5k) + i7-3820(17k) + 8x4GB 1600MHz (10k)

i7 3820 Overclocks to 4.625GHz. Instead of going for the extremely risky Raid0 go for a ramdisk using more ram. will cost about same but is much faster and much safer!!

if i chose i7 3820 wht will be my overall configuration?

can i overclock i7 3820
wht will b difference in performance of a overclocked i7 2600k that to of i7 3820

im really geeting confused now please hlp me

cant go for it now atleast way off my budget.
bt thanx a lot its a gud suggestion definitely going for it in near future
thanq clmlbx

can i overclock i7 3820 - Yes.

wht will b difference in performance of a overclocked i7 2600k that to of i7 3820 - More or less they will perform the same.

im really geeting confused now please hlp me - dont get confused, both are good options - With X79 + i7 3820 only added benefit to you will be with additional ram.

Here's a config with i7 3820 (& 2x1TB's as suggested by clmbx) -

dats a gr8 configuration
but im still in doubt i searchd and found this " Intel Core i7-3820 vs. Core i7-2700K and Core i7-3930K - X-bit labs "
which is making me confuse basically performance is same now its the only question of platform so which will be a futuristic .will z79 mobo stand for 2 to 3 yrs bcoz i dont hav any plan for any upgrade for next 2 years atleast
so wht u suggest finally should i stick to i7 2700k or should i go for i7 3820
i need performance now.

will the ivy bridge proccessors support z79 mobo when it will b released?

SNB-E & IB-E will be socket compatible..... 2600k & 3820 both are good options for u.....
from 3820 you will only be able to take benefit of more memory & memory channels.. i7 2600k is going to perform more or less the same as i7 3820.....

thanx to all
thanx for suggestng the best i could
u guyz r gr8
i nvr excepted such gud response frm u guyz again thanx a lot
