System Buying Guide (budget = 52,000rs)

This is another blog about the best gaming system u can buy here in Lahore within ur budget excluding monitor, mouse, keyboard, and speakers.
The Prices i use are the average around the market in Lahore, U can find better deals and prices if u spend more time in each shop to talking about prices.

Total budget today is 50,000rs ..for which the system i selected is below..
I have included links to the official site of the product. Just click the Name of the product. I was unaware of formatting regarding Http links. Which ive played around to use in this blog making it much easier to read and understand :)

:::::::::

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 (2.8Ghz) = 10100rs
Motherboard: Asus P5Q3 (intel P45-ICH10R) = 13500rs
RAM: Corsair XMS3 (DDR3 2x2Gb at 1333Mhz Dual Kit) = 6600rs
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTS250 512Mb = 12800rs
HDD: Western Digital 250Gb (16Mb Cache) = 4100rs
PSU: CoolerMaster ExtremePower 500w = 4100rs
Casing: CoolerMater Gladiator 600 = 5400rs
Total = 52,500rs


(i understand its above the budget but getter better prices will bring it down right on
the budget line!)

I didnt select the High-End Intel E8400 processor because this E7400 can be easily overclocked to speeds of 3.4Ghz or more. If u need more speed, simply overclock but let me remind u. That the heatsink that comes with this processor is very poor. So if u have a cool system it may work. But otherwise it will be unstable unless you buy a thirdparty Heatsink. Third party heatsinks are not so expensive if u are not going to overclock so much.

I selected this motherboard because DDR3 RAM are really cheap nowadays. And as it is the next generation you should avoid using DDR2 RAM if u have a similar budget for a system. Do remember that u will have to install a 64-bit OS to utilise the 4Gb of RAM. And links are provided. Its best to go to the manufacturers site and read about the specifications then to trust someone. And always read reviews of the product you are willing to purchase.

This GPU is great for its price. but as an alternative i would recommend a Radeon 4850 HD which is a little more expensive here in Pakistan then it should be. U can grab it for 2K more. Which if u can, i ensure you will be 100% satisfied with this system. And I recommend ATI because this motherboard has CrossFire.

The casing i selected it pretty hard-core! It allows for all the fancy cable managment which keeps ur system clean and cool. And the CM 500w PSU is just as much as u need for this system.

If u have any confusions. U can comment on my post or contact me at zainadeel@live.com, I will be glad to help :)

Hope my post was helpful.
