Hi all,

With some research and googling, i zeroed on this config for my new systemfor gaming and good computing :

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400/E8500 (availability)
ASUS P5Q (P45 chipset)
2 Gb DDR2 RAM
iball Gamer Cabinet with PSU
Geforce 8500 512 GT DDR2 / Xpert Vision GF 9400GT 512mb ddr2 (Graphic card is necessary, as motherboard does not have integrated graphics)

My max budget for required things is 20-22 K.

I would like to have suggestion/comments on this configuration.
Please comment on this config, as
monitor, keybaord, mouse, ups and speakers, harddisk will be used from old system.
I basically wanted to have those 5 things for my new config.

any help/pointers on this would be appreciated.


Greetings
 
Your budget is 20-22K? What kind of currency?

The card is not going to hack it for any serious gaming and chances are that power supply will be a cheap POS. My suggestion is that get a better card (maybe check the for sale threads) and a better power supply. I like Corsair.
 
9400GT?? Get yourself the ATI 4850 if you're gaming. Get 4GB of RAM. The E8400 is as close to the E8500 as will make no noticeable difference but allows you to save on the more expensive chip. Don't get a case with a PSU built it, get something like the Corsair 550VX PSU. In fact, go read the two stickied threads for system builders.
