Hey Roydon, When starting a build, I presume you first decide on the target resolution (I would do so). The rest of the machine is built around this choice. For a 1080p resolution the GTX260 is not the best choice. If you have a decent CPU, at 1080p the GPU is the limiting factor. Your build spends too much money on things that don't translate into any gain in FPS at 1080p. For starters, switching over to an AMD/ATI build would give you better value for Money. Secondly, getting a CM590 would make sense in a multi GPU machine. For a single card setup, it's an overkill. Thirdly, computer gaming in front of a 24" monitor is awkward. It's hard to get a good view of a 24" screen from 2 feet away. 22" is the sweetspot. A better build would be --- AMD Phenom II X4 955BE - Rs.8,250 ; MSI 790GX-G65 - Rs.6,900 ; Corsair 2GB DDR3 x 2 - Rs.5,700 ; Sapphire ATI HD5850 - Rs.15,500 ; 500GB WD Black x 2 RAID-0 - Rs.5,000 ; CoolerMaster CM 310 - Rs.1,550 ; Tagan StoneRock TG600W PSU - Rs.4,200 ; Samsung DVD Writer - Rs.1,100 ; Samsung 2233SW - Rs.9,000 ; Logitech Media KB + MX518 Mouse - Rs.1,900 ; Senheiser HD202 Headphones - Rs.1,300 ; Grand Total == Rs.60,200. A lot of money can still be shaved of this build. This build is clearly not meant for an upgrade. With a mid range PSU CrossFire is not going to happen. With that in mind a 790G Chipset presents no benefit over say, a cheaper 785G chipset except for DDR3. Getting a 785G Chipset and DDR2 RAM could save you about 4K. For those who feel that RAID is an excess you could get just one HDD and save about 2.5K. And finally for those who feel that they are not very inclined to do any sort of overcocking/expansion, the SMPS can further be downgraded to a Tagan TG500 for a savings of 1K (Yes!! a X4-955BE + HD5850 is stable). A total shaving-off of 7.5K. You can perhaps use the money to go get Windows 7 or a few new titles. My pick would be to pick up a Razor gaming mouse and Pad combo. They are pretty slick. So Roydon, wanna race your build against mine ?? :P :D

Yoo people ! Its far better to buy a PS3 or XBOX 360 than a 60k PC. You can spends 20k on a PS3 which has an inbuilt Blue ray player as well, and if really interested then spend the rest 40k on FULL HD LCD TV. That will be a fully entertaining show!! As far as the games are concern the consoles have all of them an you don't have to worry about upgrades for at least 3 years from now!!! CONSOLES ROCK!!

Pleae tell me whether a graphics card is a must for the core i5-750 processor, although I do not want to play games. If yes, then why?

Why buy hd 5850 for 15k when faster hd 4890 is available for 12k

HII I M Roydon Cerejo

instead of corsair vx 550 go for 450 coz it can take up load upto 600 w and for gfx card u can use msi hawx 5770

Just confirming ..is crossfire compatible with NvidiA cards??? and if it is not..wouldn't an ATI card be a better choice considering future expansion??

you have no idea what you are talking about ... this is a crap pc

What about the OS price.?

1Gaming rig for 40k. Board-intel dg43nb.Rs.4600.Cpu.intel core2duo e8400 3ghz 6mb l2 cache-Rs 9600.Gpu xfx radeon 4890 hd.-Rs 12000.Ram 2gb ddr2 800 mhz zion rs 2000.hard disk 160gb seagate.7200 rpm.Rs 1800.power supply.coolermaster extreme power 600watt.Rs 3500.dvd rom Rs.1200.cabinet coolermaster.Rs 1500.total rs.36700.this rig will easily play latest games at 1024*768 resolution.u could also get i5 at that cpu price but i5 cpu need costly board and dd3 ram.and still most games generally depend upon clock speed rather than number of cores.

not good ...i can built more good than that.....use sli...more than 2 gpus....use i7.....use 2.5 tb hdd......use nvidia sli ram......or just buy a console........

@tushal !!! I tried searchin for yo on facebook!!!! i m not able 2 locate yo!!! lol;-)

if u need better graphic cards in mumbai ,and also on best prices u can contact me on , this web site or search for the name on facebook . truely i can give u best price possible. post ur comments down here .

Hey there...a very nice build again...but i believe a one thing wrong there...... the price of the motherboard that you are using is about 9k-10k today...nowhere around 7k....... Also, don't you think that yous should have used an ATI GPU as the mobo is CorssFireX ready, so that we can add another GPU in the future..... None the less....the configs are awesome......gr8 work man..... I just wanted to ask what ATI options do we have that are in the same price range as the GTX 260.....and with the same power.....

What about putting XFX ATI Radeon HD 5670 of Rs. 7,500/- (1GB DDR5, Dx11 support) etc.

2 GB RAM is certainly not enough for a "High-End Gaming PC" even if it is DDR3. A slow hard drive has also been recommended. Very poor article. For 60k you can get better configurations...

@ all : well after reading FULL ARTICLE N ALL COMMENTS .. I will like to say: firstly: YES , The Os price must be included in teh configuration...U know what all these articles among other stuffs increase piracy n illegal OS use.... I insist on original OS n Anti virus.... secondly, Gaming Rig can be made with less money than that..It all depends on what one wants to do from his Beast MMAchine ;) For me 1 TB will be minimum...for some 500GB is more...n mostly ppl buy only CPU and use there present peripherals ... being an engineer n techie i will say...most of the power n processign speed in our home pcs is just wasted due to lack of knowledge.. PROCESSOR IS THE MAIN THING..TRY TO INVEST IN IT heavily.. ppl upgrade other things everytime they need to upgrade..but processor one doesnt change so often...Thirdly I will give emphasis on..spped of pc is not all abt hardware ..its management of yr pc files.n other settings....Page file size.. dividing into partitions n managing big progrmas n games on separate partition other than windows root drive makes pc a hell lot faster...n keeping frequently used files in one partition......n last but not least frequent maintenance tasks like defragmenting n deleting all deep junks...I have pretty old config but its not slow at all...n i m not joking it...i have P4 with HT 3 ghz 2 gb dual channel enabled ram.. 500 + 160 gb harddisk.. nvidia 8600 GTS + viewsonic 21 inch Lcd+ wireless RF syenhiser headphones+ microsoft wirless keybrd kit....I have worked on many latest destops ..n mine neing 4 yrs old...is not at ALL SLOW !!! not joking....

CAN YOU PEOPLE MAKE A GAMING PC OF 40K ? I BET YOU CAN'T.

@shamrock You seriously like making a fool out of yourself don't you? Please read I said "cheaply made chinese" I didn't mean all chinese products were bad. This goes to show you stick with your point of not buying Windows. I feel really happy it's coz of idiots like you Microsoft releases Genuine Validation checks. You know what I was against it at first but looking at you I'll install the validation tool. TechTree please update your guide, the fact that your editor passes such an article is beyond me. How can you spend 60k on a computer & not spend 5-6 k on a OS? Ridiculous.

Poor choice of graphics card u shnuld have recommended xfx hd 4890 which comes for 12k and goes head to head with gtx 275 and consumes less power.and what that motherboard company never heard its name.guy plz buy intel board to get maximum reliability

great....

WD Caviar Green 500GB is not a 7200 RPM drive but actually only 5400 RPM... Its not a performance HDD.. WD Caviar Black should be ideally used. Seagate 7200.12 could have been recommended but Seagate reduced warranty from 5 Years to 3 Years so WD Black is better which comes with Full 5 Years warranty albeit at higher cost....

OK

Awesome configuration.. the best ever from Techtree.. But I think that 1 TB HDD would've done justice to this rig...

i have no words to describe Mr Roydons understanding on choice of cpu difference btw Core i5 750 and Core i5 661 is L2 and L3 cache if you may please know that one of them is a dual and other is a quad core i leave the job of figuring out which is what on you , hmmm btw tell me how many games does Gtx 260 beat the 4870 will you please go to lamington road you will find a 4870 @ around 8 - 8.5 k which is cheaper and if u find a gtx 260 u will be damn lucky.again same mr roydon bull crap i dont how u manage do out douche yourself each time :) !!!

agreed great config and all...but where are the benchmarks? poor guide!!!

Graphics should be at least gtx 275,for 6k more they offer double performance of a gtx 260. Inclusion of headphone is a great idea.well done, good job.

Great confi....

Atleast buy the OS... you all spend 60k on the hard ware, use original s/w... although we indians are not used to buying it... let me confirm original O.S 7 works a lot better.

Why r u choosing P55 chipset board instead of H55 r H57

wanted to download some games which are supportive for nokia 5233.

How abt this config - Components Description Price (INR) Processor AMD Phenom II X4 945BE(3.2Ghz, 4 cores, 6MB L3 Cache) 8100 Motherboard Biostar TA790GX A3+ 6500 RAM 4(2*2GB) 1333MHz Gskill DDRIII RAM 5500 HDD 1 TB WD Black 5450 GPU Sapphire HD5850 1GB GDDR5 15850 Monitor Benq G2420HD 10500 Cabinet CM Elite 334 2200 PSU/SMPS Corsair VX550 5000 Key Board Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 1100 Mouse Logitech MX 518 1500 Mouse Pad RantoPad H3 Silk Gliding – Dark Woods 600 ODD L.G.

YEAH IT`S RIGHT BUT 60K IS MORE FOR A INDIAN GUY WHO BELONG TO A MIDDLE CLASS. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU SHOULD POST THE GAMING RIG ARTICLE WITH BEST COMPONENTS AVAILABLE IN THE MKT & LATEST TECH. ALSO. I THINK BESIDE i7 YOU POST RIG CONFIG WITH i3 & H55 OR H57 WITH ATI 5570 WHICH COST LESS THAN 50 K PLEASE POST AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE I WAIT FOR YOUR RESPONSE

Clever... going 4 the headcans instead of a 2.1 thumper.... My 2.1 lies unused... 4 serious gaming I use headcans too....
