What to Buy assembled PC

G

Hi,

I want to buy assembled PC (CPU) mainly for home use, like MSOFFICE work & Internet browsing like checking email+youtube+surfing etc .

I will not use this PC for gaming purpose as i am having separate console (XBOX 360) for the same.

I want to keep this PC for atleast 2 years without much more modification or up gradation (after i will go for up-gradation)

Budget is very tight around 15,000 INR.

Staying in Vikaspuri, New Delhi and finalized few configuration. So I want you peoples to help me or to make this machine more fruitful under the same budget.

1) CPU INTEL - INTEL DUAL CORE (G-645 , 2.90+ 3MB) costing Rs. 2990/-

2) Motherboard - GIGABYE GA -B75M-D3H costing Rs. 3900/-

3) HARD DISK - 500 GB SATA WD (64 MB CHASH) costing Rs. 3290/-

4) RAM - 4 GB DDR3 KINGSTON - costing Rs. 1238/-

5) DVD RW - LG/ SAMSUNG SATA - costing Rs. 866/-

6) CABINET /SMPS -
GSM / MORA SMPS - costing 425/-
and
MORA E (WITHOUT SMPS) - costing 450/-

- Apart from above I want to use my SAMSUNG LCD (26") as a monitor , how to use this?????, as this LCD having HDMI as well as PC connector inbuilt available.

- is there any slim type cabinet available which consume less space , but does not affect CPU working ?

- also i am using this LCD for tv viewing too.

So on a tight budget of 15k, you are spending about 6k just for Processor and Mobo! Why not buy a combo one like Gigabyte E350N, which comes with a low end AMD APU processor but having an integrated AMD Radeon HD 6310 graphics? And which you can get it for about Rs 4300 on Flipkart or less in offline store? I am myself using it and it's superb for the price!

You should rather dont compromize on power supply, which essentially is the most important aspect of a PC config. You shouldn't settle for any thing lower then 350w PSU from Antec, Corsair or Seasonic.

All looks ok to me just downgrade the motherboard to MSI H61M-P20 (G3) Motherboard - MSI: Flipkart.com if the Display you have is having DVI connection

Thanks for your reply, if i will go with this processor.. will it effect anything ???? (sorry to ask such question, as I have no idea abt the pc configurations)

Also I want to buy LED monitor within 6000rs, any suitable idea for 20" as i am looking to connect my XBOX360 with them.

@ naxal the op can go for that msi mobo even if he has a hdmi device just by buying a dvi-hdmi adapter

Benq g2220 @7.1k

G

Panwala.. this Benq g2220 is "benq g2220hd" ?????

If yes, please let me know from where I can buy this.

Also I want to know is this Monitor RELIABLE ??? hows the output of the same.. also let me know the how I can connect my XBOX with this LED???

Please email me the shops details.. my email ID is gdhawan2010@gmail.com

BenQ G2220HD isn't available any more. There is another one called BenQ G2220HDAL which is available at 7.5K. But it lacks both the DVI and HDMI inputs and comes with only VGA or D-SUB connector. I think you should invest another 1K and get Dell ST2220L.

None of the 20" displays come with HDMI ports, AFAIK. You need to use a DVI-HDMI Cable to connect the XBOX with the Monitor.

and finally i bought samsung..and it's a fantastic,brilliant display..good contrast and brightness..it's 1600x900 hd display with touch buttons..
Anyway, according to your query i think you've two options..
1. Increase your budget
2. Use a good DVI to HDMI conversion cable

because no monitor comes with hdmi port in 7k range..

One Question i want to asked

AM I required additional graphic card if i want to connect my pc (configuration as described above) to connect to LCD 26" which have VGA PORT.

IF yes , please help me which graphic card required, as my LCD is having HDMI port too...

No, you don't need any additional Graphics card, you can connect the display directly to the display output port(s) of the Motherboard.
