Upgrading woes !! · DIGIT-ARC

Hey guyz !!

I have an assembled pc with a decent config. with 17"CRT, 1Gb ram, Intel Core 2 duo processor , 128mb Vram with Vista Service Pack 1 on board.

I would like to know the upgradation cost with min. 4Gb of Ram, 620GB HDD, 19"lcd monitor, processor ( if necessary ), A stable and well balanced OS.

Also suggest me a good & decent Graphic card with good fps !!

My budget is Rs30000 - 35000 !!

Please mention the current processor that you own..heres the rest:
RAM: Transcend ddr2 800 2x2gb = 3.2k
HDD: WD 640GB = 3.9k
Monitor (optional): Dell SE198WFP 19" = 10k
OS: Vista home premium = 6k
Gfx card: Palit HD4850 = 9.8k
Total: 31k

^+1 (You know, its boring to type the same thing...... go with wat amitash said

).

BTW u might need a better PSU if you dont have a good one then get the CM500W for 2.7k

if its not something u can survive without i would say to wait ...unless market goes in more trouble ...in coming weeks

laptop prices would affect a lot as high as 1~2k more than before even more

individual components are already getting costly by 200-300 rupees since about two weeks ..and after yesterday's dollar attaining a new high it will get costlier in coming weeks

if market will correct itself in a month then prices might come down ...but if market goes even worse here after ...things will get more costly ...

it all depends how dollar will behave against rupee in future ..and no one can tell that ..so its kind of risky to suggest u anything ...

it can go either ways ..

okkiez i prefer to wait 4 a month as my father , who is a broker, says that after diwali market will gain a lot till new year !!

thats a good news then ...till then wait for a while ..and perhaps newer and better gaming lappy come in indian market till then ...

and i would say its wise choice to wait ...

If u wait, u'll get Corei7, if not, u'll get something which is gonna be pawned even by the low end nxt gen proccs in a months time

hmm ok !!

well !

i consider to wait for next year then !!
