Building A New Pc!

yes,there will be temp shortage and price increase.but thats what i pointed out,once the dust is settled,its the right time...

hmmmmmmm! I'll settle for a GB of ram to start with. I checked up the price for the processor, the E6300 would cost me about 7k-8k. I'm still confused on which graphics card to purchase

atleast the good thing is that ddr2 is cheaper than older generation ddr at the moment.

well i did buy a 512 meg ddr2 chip last month. it costed me around 2400 bucks.[/b]
I'm looking to buy the same... is this the current price at Nehru Place or did you buy it from somewhere else?

(Also is there any good software which will tell me exactly what speed RAM I need without having to open up the computer and look for the sticker on the current chip?)

bought it from a dude in gurgaon who gets the stuff from NP. he told me rates of RAM were high during those days. but i needed the ram urgently so i purchased it.and no idea abt the second part. try using diagnostic utilities...

I highly doubt that u can get a core2duo and all that config in 35 k . If you are out of budget then maybe go for amd 3600 ( its dual core i think ) with socket am2 . Also get a good Asus or MSI board ( some of them has good inbuily graphic acceleration thus reducing cost ) . Minimum 1 GB ram recomended .

Man, things are totally different at my place. Even 512 MB DDR price has gone up to Rs. 3500 from Rs. 2500 during the last month. And DDR2 is even more expensive. I can't understand how there can be so much price difference.

Try pressing the pause key when you computer is at the bios screen during bootup i.e. during post.. it should mention it there

RAM prices are always higher cause most RAM's are smuggled in :wink:

 

[Sushubh]

in this particular case, smuggled ram should be cheaper considering you dont even need to modify it to run on your PC...
