Need advice on buying PC

[Necray]

My father wanted to buy a "Hasee" computer that he saw in the laptop fair, the one which looked like a TV screen. I somehow persuaded him to raise the budget to 60000 so that I can buy a new desktop.

Budget- 60000 tk
Note that gaming is not my first priority and I don't want the machine to play games with maximum graphics. If I can play the game smoothly despite poor graphics, I'm satisfied. Also, I tend to keep my computer running for weeks since I'm always downloading one thing or the other off torrents. I don't plan on buying a new HD since I don't want to lose my current data(it's a 80GB ATA hard disk, do current motherboards support this type?). Deduct peripherals from the list.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


There's a possibility that my father might change the budget to 40000(or, any amount below 50000). In that case, what should I buy?

I agree with xCross.I suggest the tr2 420 watt for the psu as the 750 watt throughpowers are fairly costly and get a cool goldenfield casing.

[Mohaan]

go for core 2 quad..its the best and in mid-cheap price

[Necray]

So here's what I'm gonna buy-

Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 Ghz- 9100tk
Mobo XFX 9300- 11000tk
Transcend 2GB DDR2 X 2- 3600tk
500GB SATA HDD- 4900tk
DVD 18X SATA- 350tk
PCI ATI Radeon HD 4850 1 GB- 18000tk
19' Samsung LCD- 15600tk
500W Thermaltek Power Supply- 6000tk

There are some minor additions and the net cost is- 72200tk.

Looks like this is what I'll be buying *if* I buy something. Shamne SSC porikkha rekhe ami ekta notun PC kinbo kina, amar baap sheita niye chinta korar dayitto dise amake. I want to buy this for sure, but I'll have to wait till next week to see if he actually buys the thing. I'll be buying from UCC.

[SinEater]

SSC exam na shesh? Or are you talking about next year's? For the system you described, your mobo is definitely overkill. Get a G31/G33 and spend the money on somewhere else, preferably GPU/LCD/UPS

[Necray]

yeah, it's the one that is due in 11 months and is driving me crazy at the moment:closedeyes:

i dont get it ....... u said u dont need dat much high end gaming pc and u will keep ur pc on for downloads ....... and yet u r spending so much on a high end desktop pc just for downloading stuffs ??? U said u dont need to play at maximum settings ...... yet u r still buyin one with which u can play at maximum settings ......

it is better u save some money as this will help ur dad ...... honestly speaking, these days it is not worth spendin so much on pc gaming rather than console ..... u can still buy it if ur dad has the money though coz hey dats ur choice ...... but if ur dad has financial problems even to a slightest extent, then i suggest u dont buy this so much high end pc as this is an overkill !!

if ur plan is watching movies (which i m guessing otherwise pc on rekhe torrent diye ki korba) ...... u better buy a normal pc but wid a hd lcd monitor ....... and for gaming purpose buy a xbox 360 later on ...... even pcs within range of 40,000 taka will be able to play all recent pc title very smoothly ....... plus u will save electricity costs over the years (which we ignore into our calculation) since u r plannin to keep pc always on .....

so even if u have money, i will still suggest for going wid xbox 360 and a very normal computer with hd decoding gpu and hd lcd monitor ....... dat way u can fully enjoy both gaming and movies at da same time .....

[Mazhar]

firstly, why UCC? you can save so much more by buying from somwehere else.

secondly, dont go for the xfx motherboard, or the graphics card. go for a gigabyte, msi or asus G33, P35 or P43 chipset, and a cheaper 512MB HD4850 for around 15k. stay away from nvidia chipset motherboards, they are usually bound to cause problems. even a G33 would suffice, and those two would save you 8000tk or so. spend that money on a better LCD.

the rest seem fine to me

Well, if I buy this PC I won't be buying another one in at least 6-7 years(assuming this one keeps working) even if it gets outdated. The prime reason why I'm buying a PC in the first place is that my current one can die out anytime.

I don't want to change the graphics card, I'll think about mobo. So if I cancel UCC, where should I go? I think someone recommended Smart technologies(right beside UCC).......

btw, ei mobo er price chara r kono problem ase?
