Hey guys
I live in India and Online stores like NewEgg don't ship here so I'm quoting the local prices

I'm Thinking of building a new system on the following lines

1). E8400 - at Rs.8690 - 173.8 US$
Or
. . .E7300 - at Rs.5800 - 116 $
Or
. . .Q6600 - at Rs.9690 - 193.8$

Will OC <- So which is better bang for buck? considering extra cost of aftermarket cooler if required

2) Palit HD 4850 at Rs.8800 - 176$

3) GA-EP35-DS3L at Rs 4800 - 96$

4) Samsung 2253BW @ Rs 11700 - 234$

5) Vx450W - Rs. 4000- 80$
Or
. . .CoolMaster 600W - Rs. 3200 - 64$

6) 4 Gigs (2g x2) Transend/Kington @ Rs2400 - 48$ < -can i use them at 4-4-4-12, these are 5-5-5-15 Value ram

7) Altec Lansing VS3251 at Rs 4000 - 80$


My budget for all (inc UPS , K/b mouse Etc.) is 1K$

So what do u think guys is it a cool rig or any improvements that u can think of!

My Uses Are Gaming Crysis, NFS, COD etc. Virtualization - Lots of it! i.e VMWare, Gynamips etc
I would like to stick to Intel and wish new Phenom II will push things down

Prices of other components you might need to know are:

1. phenom II 920: Rs. 11500 - 230 $
2. Q9300-q9400 : Between 11000-12000(appx) 220 - 250$

also the following site might be helpful you can take INR 50 = 1$

If you want to OC i'd say either the Phenom II 920 or the Intel e8400. Then its a matter or how many cores you want. I'd go for the Quad PII 920. The Q9300 only will get you about 3.5 if you are lucky & with good cooling though I'm not sure about the 9400.
 
Ok so after some research and your advise I've finalized

Q6600 @3GHz WITH Stock HSF 194$

GA-EP45-DS3R 140$

PALIT HD4850 170$

Altec Lansing VS3251 80$

G.SKILL 2X2GB 5-5-5-15 800MHz 50$

WD 500GB - 60$

VX450 CROSAIR - 80$

SAMSUNG 2253BW 22", DVI, CR 1000(TYP) 2ms GTG - 234$

IBALL GAMER CABINET (With 1x90mm in front, 1x80mm out back, 1x90mm out, side) 26$

Do u think I'm somewhere near a good value for money region for a optimal machine!


Might add another HD4850 after 6 months or so!

Click to expand...

maybe search for a different case.. 120mm fans are so much better than 80/90
 
And you might want to look at aftermarket cooling for 3ghz on a 65nm quad. Something like a Xigmatek S1283 or an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro.
