Get an AMD rig . Very VFM and will help you in future.
FX 8350
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0
Sapphire 7970 3 GB
Corsair TX650 v2
G.Skill RipjawsX 2x 4 GB
WD Blue 1 TB
NZXT Gamma
Dell s2240L
Total ~ 70k
You can keep the keyboard and mouse. Do you have ups?Games have started to use more cores , so the FX 8350 is VFM as it posses 8 cores. If you go with an intel one an ocing proc i.e. I5 3570K and a Good Z77 board at 11k to 12k and you have to spend around 24k on these two components itself. Whereas the ASUS M5A97 Evo R2 is a good ocer at just 7k. You have to sacrifice on the GPU if you buy the Intel Alternative.

wow both of u suggested good rigs but i dont know i really like intel thats y I'm thinking about the 2nd rig .
@ashish im just confused about the cabinet as I will attach 2 or 3 more hdds and is that psu enough? bcoz I think I will crossfire my gpu's and will overclock too thats y I was thinking about getting a cooler master evo too and is this rig future proof for another 4-5 years after spending so much?
ASHISH65
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:09 PM
yes both rig are awesome.that cabi is fine foe 2-3hds and psu, if you need more better then get corsair 300r @ rs 3900.
anuragsinghh
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:13 PM
if it can hold that much stuff then I'm fine with it but really man I know I'm asking much but please tell me is it really future proof and what's the difference between 7950 and 7970 and which company is best for amd cards my personal favorite is sapphire.
Sainatarajan
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:15 PM
If you buy a HD 7970 now and CF it later and will OC both the CPU and GPU atleast get
Corsair TX750 W @ 6.5K or Corsair TX850 W @ 7.2k . Go with the 850 W and you will be on the safer side Let others comment on this.

Saphhire and asus are best maker for amd,

see the difference between hd 7950 and 7970

looking at price difference between tx750 and hx 850,go with tx 850 much better would be!
Sainatarajan
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:17 PM
Corsair 400R @ 4.5K will be even better
anuragsinghh
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:17 PM
yes I will crossfire it and overclocking too so I should get corsair 850 but I think it will make my budget hurt so any other opinion?

and what about gpu 7950 or 7870 ( my choice ) and what about nvidia's graphic cards ?

first of all when you are going for multigpus? in which year? or now
anuragsinghh
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:36 PM
oh sorry I'm just asking can I get a better graphic card of nvidia in the same price range?
and no I want only 1 card right now.
Sainatarajan
Apr 20, 2013 at 8:41 PM
NVIDIA cards are pricey and they offer very little performance over the AMD card in your case.. As Ashish said for single monitor setup the cf is not at all req...

ok than there is only gtx 670 @rs 29000,but that is not powerfull like hd 7970 (refer the chart above)

Only thing missing is a SSD. You might like to add a Small size SSD as boot driver and it will change the performance from 5.9 to 7.x :) (Which is VERY Noticeable)
anuragsinghh
Apr 20, 2013 at 11:17 PM
ok lets assume i got a 80gb ssd , so now is my rig perfect ?

^ get a 120GB SSD. make 2 partitions of 60GB.

first partition, install OS and 2nd use for installing games. and enjoy super fast load times ;)

when you overclock, it heat up the interior.. fit some extra fans too.

A word of advise.

The PSU you are getting is TX850V2. This a good unit made by Seasonic. But its already discontinued by Corsair or a EOL product.
The new TX850 is made by HiPro. Dont buy it.
Check before buying if it is a Seasonic or HiPro.

Prime ABGB's stock of TX750/850V2 is already exhausted. MD Computers may or may not have them,coz my repeated visits to check the eyefinity set up in their store,I couldnt come across the V2s but only the M!! So check with them before placing any orders.

Aren't the m's good?

Seasonic SS750JS is also a nice PSU
