    Dude, this chart shows how important it is to have a really good CPU with a 8800 GTX.

    GeForce 8800GTX - Farcry Benchmark. \/

    As u can see, to get a mid ranged score u'll hv to get an Intel C2D E6600 & it'll still cost u around 300$! :yes:

    • Even the X6800 is bottlenecking the 8800GTX (Stock X6800 got 133 fps in 1024x768 & the oc'ed X6800 got 149FPS!)

    My point is, there is no use of buying a high-end GPU if u're not getting a good CPU(Still u'll hv to OC It! :lol: )

    ;)

    machan if you not in to much gaming or game/3D programming i think you don’t need such powerful VGA card. 3ds max, video/audio editing requires lot of RAM and processor power. You got to buy some fast hard disk. That will give really good performance boost :yes:


    that's true machan u must increase your memory adn processor

    :cool: :cool: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :cool: :cool:

    all the stats you guys have posted,has given me a chance to understand the current the technology...but im not that good in high tec...so i think it would help if either one of you posts youre own configureations(within a budjet of 1lak),witch will give me a chance to have a better idea.i also have been doing some checking in the net...it seems like all the gaming pc's are AMD...is there a specific reason...and how practical would it be for us who live in SL...:yes:

    Dude.. basically for ya requirements i would recommend a Core 2 Duo processor, min of 2GB DDR2 based RAM, 300 GB 7200 RPM HD, DVD-Writer plus for and all around graphics performance at an effective price a nVidia 7950 GT.. the price of the colour card is bound to come down at a quick pace in the near future so patience....

    SLI does not necessary give ya double performance since ya get 2 colour cards working but approximately 75 to 85% improvement over a single card solution.. getting colour cards are way costly here so i recommend ya to order online..

    as for the mobo, ya could go 4 a mid-end Gigabyte DS2 type mobo or else a high end one would be the ASUS line of mobos (reliable stuf mind ya!)...

    the 1lakh barrier would be intruding in building a proper powerful machine dude.. am sure ya could achieve better performance via a system built below 150k...
